Fischer America PiloDist 500 CC

ASTM D-2892Computer Controlled (CC) automatic controlled crude oil distillation system.
PiloDist 500 CC

Key Advantages

the system is designed for the distillation of small charges up to 300 ml and controlled by a microprocessor. All parameters (preset and actual values and safety limits) are digitally indicated on an LED display.

  • Crude distillation similar to ASTM D-2892
  • Max. boiling range: 450° C - 500° C AET (depending on charge and column load)
  • Distillation of organic, anorganic, macromolecular components, etc.
  • Automatic fraction collector with 10 receivers (20 ml) controlled by preselected:
    • cut temperatures
    • cut collecting times
    • temperatures and times
  • Various column types (packed column, spiral column approximately 10 to 50 theoretical plates depending on product and operation conditions)

  • WindowsTM-based software for simple, intuitive operation.
  • Monitoring and printing of distillation parameters versus distillation time:
    • vapour temperature (ACT and AET)
    • flask temperature (ACT and AET)
    • temperature of tower mantle
    • temperature of heating jacket
    • vacuum
  • Barometric boiling point correction according to the Maxwell-Bonnell Equation (ASTM D-2892)
  • Recalling of distillation curves at any time
