toluene.
Features and Benefits
• Conforms to ASTM D473 and related specifications
K48300 Sediment Extraction Apparatus
A test portion of the sample is placed in a refractory thimble. Toluene is
gently boiled and its vapors condensed and allowed to drip into the sample
funnel. The toluene washes out all of the crude oil or fuel oil leaving the
insoluble residue only in the thimble. The mass of the residue is calculated
as a percentage and is referred to as the sediment by extraction. Includes
condenser thimble basket, water cup and extraction thimble.
Specifications
Conforms to the specifications of: ASTM D473; IP 53; ISO 3735; DIN 51789;
FTM 791-3002; NF M 07-010
