Penetrometer for Oil and Petroleum Testing Equipment

The Manual Penetrometer is designed to determine the consistency and penetration characteristics of petroleum products by measuring the depth to which a standard cone or needle penetrates a sample under specified time and temperature conditions. The standard test interval is 5 seconds, although other specified intervals may be used.

The instrument is precision-machined and ruggedly constructed for reliable operation in laboratory and field environments. It provides a penetration range of 0–62.0 mm with 1/10 mm subdivisions and accommodates cones and needles for testing lubricating greases, asphalts, petroleum waxes, petrolatums, and other solid to semi-solid materials.
