(ABS) Automated BOCLE System, Ball-on-Cylinder wear test system

PCS Instruments Ltd

 

Introducing ABS, the Automated BOCLE System by PCS, which is a fully automated wear test system that offers rapid and reliable assessment of aviation fuel lubricity. With its user-friendly interface and microprocessor control, ABS effortlessly executes the ASTM D5001 test sequence. By eliminating operator-induced variability, it guarantees consistent and accurate results.

 

The system features automatic flow controllers for precise humidity and air flow, reducing the need for manual adjustments. Simply load the pre-loaded ASTM D5001 test sequence, insert clean specimens, add fuel, and press ‘Start Test’. Additionally, PCS provides interchangeable probes, ensuring hassle-free measurement.

 

With ABS, you have a compact and self-contained system that provides a fast, repeatable assessment of the performance of jet fuels that fully conforms to the standard “Measurement of Lubricity of Aviation Turbine Fuels by the Ball-on-Cylinder Lubricity Evaluator,” requiring only compressed air and mains power.

Features & Benefits

Main product features

  • The PCS Automated BOCLE System (ABS) is included in the D5001 ASTM specification
  • Simple to use interface -microprocessor control of all instrument functions
  • Standard ASTM D5001 test sequence pre-loaded into ABS microprocessor controller – operator fits cleaned specimens, adds fuel sample and presses the ‘Start Test’ button
  • Automatic control of test sequence – no operator-induced variability in test results
  • Automatic flow controllers for moist and dry air – no operator input required to control the humidity and flow rate of the conditioned air
  • Optional PC-based data logging software – allows test data to be recorded as a permanent record (available for both D5001 and D6078)
  • Interchangeable humidity and temperature probes – humidity and temperature measurement does not need to be re-calibrated – Simply exchange the combined relative humidity and temperature probe for a pre-calibrated unit
  • PCS manufactures the ABS test rings – single source supplier of test rings and specimens leads to higher quality control
