AMETEK Spectro Scientific products

The FDM 6000 is a portable, battery operated fuel dilution meter that determines the concentration of fuel dilution present in an oil sample within a matter of minutes. The FDM 6000 uses a unique patent pending fang design to pierce the cap of a disposable sample vial and draws in the headspace from the vial. The headspace flows over a SAW (Surface Acoustic Wave) sensor which reacts specifically to the presence of fuel vapor with a detection range of 0 – 15%. It can detect diesel, gasoline or jet fuel in engine oil. It conforms to ASTM D8004 - "Standard Test Method for Fuel Dilution of In-Service Lubricants Using Surface Acoustic Wave Sensing".

The SpectrOil M/F-W has become the standard instrument when on-site and immediate fuel analysis is a necessity. It fulfills the requirements of ASTM D 6728, Standard Test Method for Determination of Contaminants in Gas Turbine and Diesel Engine Fuel by Rotating Disc Electrode Atomic Emission Spectrometry.

The InfraCal 2 Biodiesel Blend Analyzer for measuring percent biodiesel in diesel is the ideal solution where a quick, accurate, on-site measurement is required and a single, repetitive biodiesel blend analysis is needed. The InfraCal 2 ATR-B is based on proven IR technology, originally developed by Wilks, and used by fuel distributors, blenders, producers and regulatory agencies worldwide.  The compact, easy-to-use Biodiesel Blend Analyzer has a measurement range of 0 – 100% biodiesel in diesel. These results are comparable to both ASTM D7371 and EN 14078, laboratory methods that require expensive FTIR Spectrometers.

The InfraCal 2 Ethanol Blend Analyzer for measuring percent ethanol in gasoline is the ideal solution where a quick, accurate, on-site measurement is required and a single, repetitive ethanol blend analysis is needed.  The InfraCal 2 ATR-E is based on proven IR technology, and used by fuel terminals, laboratories and regulatory agencies worldwide.  The compact, easy-to-use InfraCal 2 ATR-E has a measurement range of 0-20 & 70-98%% ethanol in gasoline and an accuracy of +/- 0.2%. These results are comparable to ASTM D4815.
