The application of freezing point measuring instruments in the petroleum industry mainly focuses on the low-temperature performance testing of oil products, including the determination of key indicators such as diesel pour point, lubricating oil pour point, and low-temperature performance of aviation fuel, to ensure the applicability of oil products in the terminal environment.

Diesel pour point detection

The pour point of diesel should be lower than the lowest local temperature5-7℃To ensure the cold start performance of the engine. The fully automatic measuring instrument can quickly determine the pour point, guide the optimization of the fraction cutting process, and avoid pipeline blockage in winter.‌

Lubricant pour point evaluation

Lubricating oil needs to maintain fluidity at low temperatures. By testing the pour point, its applicability in extremely cold environments (such as the Arctic region) can be evaluated, guiding the adjustment of additive formulations . ‌

Low temperature performance verification of aviation fuel

Aviation kerosene at high altitude-50℃Liquidity must be maintained in the environment, and its pour point test is directly related to flight safety. The instrument can accurately verify whether it meets the requirementsASTM D97Waiting for international standards.‌

Monitoring of oil pipeline transportation

In cold regions, high pour point of crude oil may lead to pipeline wax deposition. The measuring instrument can monitor the pour point of oil in real time, guide the temperature setting of the heating station or add pour point depressants .‌
