The new CCS-G6 Automated Cold-Cranking Simulator
The CANNON CCS-G6 is an advanced automated cold-cranking simulator designed to measure the apparent viscosity of engine oils within a temperature range of –40 °C to –5 °C. This state-of-the-art device features automated sample loading, solvent-free cleaning, and the capability for unattended processing of up to 14 samples. Specifically engineered for engine oils and lubricating base stocks, it adheres to ASTM D5293 and SAE J300 standards.
Key components of the system include:
- A patented thermoelectrically-cooled rotor/stator
- Vacuum system
- Injection pump
- 14-position sample carousel
- Integrated chiller
- Temperature verification kit
- Proprietary software
- Cannon CL viscosity standards
