AMETEK Spectro Scientific Portable Fuel Dilution Meter (FDM) FDM 6000

Description
Highlights The FDM 6000 is a portable, battery operated fuel dilution meter that determines the concentration of fuel dilution present in an oil sample within a matter of minutes. The FDM 6000 uses a unique patent pending fang design to pierce the cap of a disposable sample vial and draws in the headspace from the vial. The headspace flows over a SAW (Surface Acoustic Wave) sensor which reacts specifically to the presence of fuel vapor with a detection range of 0 – 15%. It can detect diesel, gasoline or jet fuel in engine oil. It conforms to ASTM D8004 - "Standard Test Method for Fuel Dilution of In-Service Lubricants Using Surface Acoustic Wave Sensing" Key Features Conforms to ASTM D8004 - "Standard Test Method for Fuel Dilution of In-Service Lubricants Using Surface Acoustic Wave Sensing" Direct fuel dilution measurement with 0.2 to 15% fuel dilution range Innovative headspace sampling fang design ensures excellent repeatability (<= 5% RSD) Disposable FDM vials eliminate carryover contamination Small sample volume – only 0.5ml of oil used Fast – it takes only one minute Onboard memory allows use of up to three stored calibration profiles Sample ID entry and data file export via USB cable Battery powered, lightweight, optional hard case for transit Audio prompt feature guides operators through testing
