Introduction
A wax oil content tester is an instrument used to measure the wax content of petroleum products, such as lubricating oils, crude oils, and fuel oils, and it is used in the petroleum refining, lubricant, and fuel industries for quality control and product development. The wax content of an oil is the amount of wax, which is a mixture of long-chain hydrocarbons, present in the oil, and it affects the low-temperature properties of the oil, such as the pour point, the cloud point, and the flow properties, and it is an important parameter for the evaluation of the performance of lubricating oils and fuels at low temperatures; the wax content is measured by various methods, including the solvent method, in which the wax is precipitated from the oil by cooling and by the addition of a solvent, and the weight of the precipitated wax is measured, and the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) method, in which the heat of the wax crystallization is measured, and the tester follows standardized methods, such as ASTM standards for the wax content of petroleum products, and it provides the wax content, expressed as a weight percentage; the wax oil content tester consists of a sample preparation system, a cooling system, a filtration or separation system, and a weighing system, and it provides a controlled and reproducible measurement. Wax oil content testers are used in petroleum refineries, in lubricant manufacturing, in the fuel industry, for quality control, for product development, for the evaluation of the low-temperature performance, for compliance with specifications, and for many other applications. With their measurement of the wax content, wax oil content testers are essential for the evaluation of petroleum products.

FAQ
Q1: What scenarios is this tester used for?
A: It determines wax content in crude oil or oil content on specified materials by standardized extraction, separation and weighing, supporting petroleum or content analysis.
Q2: What standards does it comply with?
A: It follows relevant ASTM, ISO or GB/T methods for the configured content test, with temperature and weighing verified.
Q3: What is the warranty?
A: The tester carries a 12 to 24 month warranty covering the apparatus. Glassware and solvents are consumables. Damage from misuse is excluded.
Q4: Is it hard to operate?
A: Operation requires trained staff for extraction and calculation. We provide a manual and training.
Q5: What is the lead time?
A: Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.
Q6: Is calibration required?
A: Performance should be verified periodically using calibrated reference standards, with results logged in the equipment record. Most users perform this check every 6 to 12 months or according to their internal quality schedule. We provide the procedure, reference materials and formal calibration service if required.
Q7: Are consumables universal?
A: Solvents and glassware are standard, while apparatus parts are model-specific. Ongoing cost includes solvents.
Q8: Can it be customized?
A: Yes, several configurations are available. Options include sample capacity and automated versus manual steps. We can discuss further custom requirements, confirm feasibility and advise any effect on the schedule before the order is confirmed.
Q9: Is installation included?
A: No installation is required. The unit is delivered fully assembled and factory tested, so you only need to place it on a level surface, connect power and follow the quick-start guide. An illustrated manual and setup video are included, and our engineers provide remote guidance if needed.
Q10: What samples are compatible?
A: It handles samples within the configured method. It is not for incompatible matrices, non-target contents, or samples beyond the apparatus capacity.
