The Petroleum Synthetic Fluid Tester is designed to measure the water separability (anti‑emulsification property) of petroleum products and synthetic fluids. It conforms to GB/T 7305 and ASTM D1402 – both standard test methods for determining the ability of oils to separate from water. This instrument is widely used in oil refineries, laboratories, and quality control centers.
Integrated multifunctional design – The unit combines a water bath, sample stirring mechanism, graduated cylinder holder, temperature controller, lighting system, and a timing alarm device into one compact frame.
Precise digital temperature control – A digital temperature controller ensures high accuracy (±0.1°C) within a range of ambient to 99.9°C. The large LED display is intuitive and easy to read.
Dual cylinder capability – Two measuring cylinders can be placed in the water bath simultaneously, improving testing efficiency.
Adjustable stirring assembly – The stirring device can be moved up and down, allowing the operator to position the mixing blade at the correct height. Once adjusted, the motor bracket can be locked securely.
Full test visibility – The transparent bath cover and built‑in lighting let the operator clearly observe sample changes throughout the entire procedure. Constant bath temperature and clear display ensure accurate and repeatable results.

Water contamination is a common challenge in industrial oil systems. If an oil or synthetic fluid cannot quickly separate from water, it may form stable emulsions that reduce lubrication efficiency, accelerate oxidation, and cause filter plugging. The anti‑emulsification test measures the time required for oil and water to separate under controlled stirring and temperature conditions. A shorter separation time indicates better performance.
