Laboratory And Scientific Equipment
Advanced Analysis with Petrochemical Scientific Equipment
Our curated collection of laboratory and scientific equipment delivers reliable performance for high-stakes testing environments:
- Kinematic Viscosity: Utilise Cannon Instrument Ubbelohde and Fenske viscometers for precise flow measurements of oils and polymers.
- Flash Point Detection: Implement Stanhope Seta Setaflash Series 3 and Cleveland Open Cup testers to safely determine the flammability of petroleum products.
- Sample Handling: Deploy Kinesis microcomputer-controlled fraction collectors to automate complex chemical separations and enhance laboratory throughput.
How to Choose the Right Laboratory and Scientific Equipment
Selecting the correct scientific instrumentation for your facility requires evaluating specific technical parameters:
- Measurement Accuracy: Verify that viscometers, such as BYK-Gardner Ford cups, include NIST-traceable calibration certificates to ensure data integrity.
- Regulatory Compliance: Ensure all flash point and distillation units are engineered to meet the exact requirements of international standards like IP and ASTM.
- Hydrogen Generation: Evaluate the need for high-purity hydrogen generators from Parker Hannifin to support continuous gas chromatography workflows.
Expanding Your Petrochemical Workflow
Integrated testing is essential for comprehensive quality control. To further optimise your facility, we recommend exploring these related categories:
- Measuring and observing and testing instruments: Source specialized pressure loggers and thermal analysis systems to complement your primary lab hardware.
- Fluid and gas distribution: Implement high-grade tubing and gas regulators to ensure stable sample delivery to your analytical instruments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the role of a viscometer in fuel quality testing?
A viscometer measures the internal friction of a fluid, which is a critical parameter for identifying the grade and performance characteristics of lubricants and refined fuels.
Are your petrochemical viscometers NIST-calibrated?
Yes, many of our high-precision viscometers, including BYK-Gardner Ford cups, are supplied with NIST-traceable calibration certificates to meet strict auditing standards.
Do you offer calibration for automated fraction collectors?
Our AU technical team provides full installation, maintenance, and calibration services for all automated sample handling systems to ensure continuous laboratory compliance.
