Emcee Electronics, Inc. products

This test method is intended for use in the laboratory or field in evaluating distillate fuel cleanliness.  A change in filtration performance after storage, pretreatment, or commingling can be indicative of changes in fuel condition. Causes of poor filterability in industrial/refinery filters include fuel degradation products, contaminants and particulates picked up during storage or transfer, incompatibility of commingled fuels, or interaction of the fuel with the filter media. Any of these could correlate with orifice or filter plugging, or both.

To reduce the hazards of electrical charge build up that can occur especially during high pumping rates of low conductivity materials through filters, additives are added to the product. Emcee Electronics, Inc. offers the Model 1150 Staticon System (listed in ASTM D 2624) that has the capability to monitor and control conductivity of such products in a variable moving stream.  The system can control the additive injection rate to maintain a preset level and has the ability to turn off the main pumps when either a high or low preset limit has been exceeded. The basic System consists of a Control, a Barrier, a Fuel Cell Module, a desktop PC and an optional injector pump is offered. Intrinsically safe approvals have been received from the applicable domestic and foreign agencies, such as Underwriters Laboratories (UL) U.S. (UL) Canada and LCIE (Registered Quality) Europe.
