Tanaka’s new Automatic Pour / Cloud / Freezing Point Tester mpc-6 is designed with “Simple, Reliable, and Robust” concepts. The mpc-6 requires a mere 4.5 mL sample and provides quick automatic determination of 3 key cold property measurements with high precision.
INNOVATIVE
Tanaka’s original mini test methods which require much less
sample volume (4.5 mL) and short testing time compared to
conventional manual methods
SMALLEST FOOTPRINT
Very small width of 16 cm allows for most efficient use of bench space.
3-in-1
Test pour point, cloud point, and freezing point with just one instrument. Pour and cloud can be run simultaneously in a single run.
Eco-friendly
Equipped with CFC-free cooler achieving low noise, low vibration, and energy-saving. Sample temperature of -90℃ can be reached without external chiller.
● Intuitive 7-inch Touch-Screen Operation: Simplicity ensures smooth operation.
● Extremely Simple: Set sample cup, input expected points and then press START. Pre-heat and cooling sequence are run automatically. Pour and cloud point results can be obtained in a single run.
● Search Mode for Unknown Samples: The new SPE mode will test pour point with different pressures so that parameter optimization can be easily done.
● Data Connectivity and Management: Data can be exported to LIMS or optional printer via Ethernet. Data storage for up to 50 data can be secured with password.
Pour / Cloud/ Freezing Point Tester MPC Series
TANAKA's MPC series has been designed for automatic determination of POUR POINT (PP), CLOUD POINT (CP) and FREEZING POINT (FZ) with small specimen size and shorter test cycle time while securing better test precision than the conventional manual methods.
PP measurement is by "AIR PRESSURE METHOD" (ASTMD6749), and CP measurement is by "SMALL TEST JAR METHOD" (ASTM D7683).
The epoch-making automatic PP test method yields 1 ℃ test resolution, while the CP and FZ methods yields 0.1 ℃ resolution.
