 
 FOAMING CHARACTERISTICS BATHASTM D6082Undesirable foaming characteristics in lubricating oils can be a serious problem leading to loss of lubrication, overflow, and cavitation with ultimately a possibility of mechanical failure. With increasing operating temperature in oil systems, there is requirement is to assess the tendency of oils to foam at 150°C. This fan assisted hot air bath with a digital controller , keypad and display, quickly heats and maintains a sample at any chosen temperature from 50° to 150°C± 1°C.A separate thermal cutout and double glazed viewing window are included for added safety. Integral lighting provides easy reading of foaming levels. Complete with sintered stainless steel Mott Diffuser, and a 1 000 ml graduated cylinder with adjustable foam stopper.
