OCTANE METER

The Octane Meter is developed and manufactured at the Petroleum Chemisorption Institute of Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Science. This petroleum analyzer is recognized in the Russian Federation and identified in the public register (N16464-97) for is accuracy. It is widely used around the world to evaluation gasoline parameters such as the determination its octane number comparable to ASTM D 2699-86, ASTM D 2700-86 and cetane number of diesel fuel comparable to ASTM D 4737-03, ASTM D 613, EN ISO 5165.

The device operates by measuring the sample's dielectric properties and comparing the results to stored parameters in it's internal program of typical known chemical compounds widely used in fuel production. Extremely sensitive to changes in these dielectric properties, the Octane Meter is able to detect subtle differences in the chemical makeup of the fuel sample and therefore becomes valuable tool for determining the octane, cetane as well as many other parameters for typical gasoline, diesel fuel and other petroleum products.

The Octane Meter uses range from assisting fuel manufacturers in monitoring the blending of additives used in the gasoline and diesel fuel production, to individuals and organizations wishing to monitor petroleum products for quality as well as deterioration during extended storage.

Since different fuel blends react differently, all Shatox Octane Meters employ additional modes providing the ability to make corrections quickly and easily by the user when analyzing fuels the device is not familiar with. These user's corrected algorithms are stored in the analyzer's non-volatile memory and can be recalled at any time.

Shatox manufactures four different Octane Meter models, designed to be used in petroleum sampling that offer an affordable alternative to complex laboratory equipment such as the CFR engine. In addition to fuel diagnostics, two of the Octane Meters models also employ functions for electrical transformer oil measurements.

All models include the hand-held module that contains the processor, control keys and digital display. The sensor is a stainless-steel cup that includes an internal temperature sensor, which holds the test sample liquid.

All models except the SX-100M can also be controlled using a PC type interface and software (seen below), designed to be used by a Windows bases PC running Windows XP or 2000 operating systems. The software gives the ability to save test data to a Excel spreadsheet or TXT file as well as controlling all aspects of the device including firmware upgrades, calibration changes and unit enhancements. All models include an operating manual and carrying case.

Note: Current models of the Octanemeter are not compatible with Bio-fuels such as Bio-Diesel and ethanol fuel blends. We expect an upgrade to address these issues in the near future.

NEW!

SX-300 PETROLEUM QUALITY ANALYZER

Shatox brings you the latest and one of the most complete petroleum analyzer in the industry. Capable of 13 different tests for gasoline, diesel fuel and transformer oils, the SX-300 is by far the most versatile analyzer they have produced to date. Including the same functions for octane and cetane measurements that the SX-100 and SX-200 Octane Meters have, the this new petroleum analyzer adds more versatility to the task of monitoring petroleum samples. Using the SX-300 allows the user to reveal much more information about the sample, thus aiding the user in maintaining better quality control over petroleum products.
