King BLB | Liquid Bath

Principle

The King BLB liquid bath is available in (3) models based on your temperature needs and can run multiple test methods with different hardware configurations.

Low-Temperature Viscosity:
– The King BLB tests low-temperature viscosity of ATF’s, gear oils, hydraulic fluids, and other fluid lubricants using a rotational viscometer mounted on the bath top after cooling to a predetermined test temperature based on the desired test method (D2983, DIN 51398, IP267).
– Unique Tannas SimAir® Test Cells provide proper sample temperature control for accurate, precise results and permits each test cell to operate independently, increasing productivity for D2983 and IP 267 testing.
– Features a 12-position carousel.

King Cloud & Pour Point Bath:
– The King BLB can measure low temperature Cloud & Pour Point tests of petroleum products – an index of the lowest temperature of its utility for certain applications. The BLB offers the manual D97, D2500, and D5853 testing techniques and a self-contained refrigeration system with ramp/soak temperature programming ability. The King instrument is a cost-effective and user-friendly alternative to expensive automated Cloud & Pour Point devices.
