Aquamax KF PRO OIL
Karl-Fischer-Titrators
Product description
The Aquamax KF PRO Oil fulfils the requirements of the standard ASTM D 6304: Standard Test Method for Determination of Water in Petroleum Products, Lubricating Oils and Additives by Coulometric Karl Fischer Titration.
The Aquamax KF PRO Oil is the perfect instrument to measure ppm water in oils and fuels without the worry of interference side reactions caused by additives or sulphur/mercaptans. The unique “closed loop” principle means no additional carrier gas is necessary. Directly injecting the sample in to the oven means no blank value is required, making the Aquamax KF PRO Oil a truly accurate, trace level water in petroleum products titrator.
Learn more about your oils by using the temperature ramping program. This unique ECH feature allows you to see all various types of bonded water, making the Aquamax KF Pro Oil the perfect tool in the R & D, Refining, Used Oil analysis laboratories and lubricant blending plants. Crude oils are also perfectly analysed as we have the ability to display both free and bonded water.
All Aquamax KF PRO Oil parts are totally enclosed making this system completely safe and robust for use in the demanding petroleum industry. The ECH technique allows a very long reagent life, because its capacity can be used completely.

Avantages
- Closed loop principle does not allow methanol to evaporate from the KF solvent
- Reagent capacity is used completely
- Additive and Sulphur side reactions minimized
- By using of temperature programs it is possible to separate free and chemically bonded water
- Temperature ramping program allows you to distinguish between various types of bonded water
- No blank value meaning true ppm accuracy
- Aquamax KF PRO Oil can be used in the laboratory or used as part of a mobile lab when taking a measurement from the sample point is critical
- Compact and rugged device
Automatic version
The Aquamax KF PRO Oil is also available as a automatic version with sampler for oils. This makes it easy to handle large quantities of samples. The sampler has space for 200 sample syringes with 5 mL in five magazines.
An integrated scale determines exactly the sample amount.

Universal reagent exchange module SWOP Box
The SWOP BOX makes it easy and convenient to change reagents in titration cells. The module can be used on any Karl Fischer titrator, regardless of the system/design.
The direct contact with chemicals and the ingress of humidity are minimised.
