Cloud And Pour Point Apparatus

About Cloud And Pour Point Apparatus

The Cloud and Pour Point Apparatus is a precision laboratory instrument used to determine the cloud point and pour point of petroleum products, diesel, lubricating oils, and other liquid fuels. These properties indicate the lowest temperature at which a liquid remains flowable and free from wax crystal formation, which is essential for evaluating cold-weather performance.

Designed in accordance with ASTM D2500 and ASTM D97 standards, the apparatus ensures accurate, reliable, and repeatable test results. It is widely used in petroleum refineries, lubricant industries, research laboratories, and quality control departments.
