TD-PPA PORTABLE TURBINE & DIESEL FUEL ANALYZER
Highly accurate, rugged, low cost diesel fuel and jet fuel analysis
Formerly the Mid-Dist Series, the new TD-PPA Turbine Diesel Portable Process Analyzer provides the most complete, global analysis of diesel and jet fuel blends in a fraction of the time required by other standard methods. With the touch of a button, unique mid- and near- infrared analysis evaluates for multiple analytes and physical properties simultaneously, yielding more repeatable and reproducible results than other standard methods. No prep time is required and the TD PPA is rugged enough for lab or field use.
The TD PPA is factory calibrated with a matrix of over 600 fuels developed during independent projects with Shell and BP respectively in Europe. Accompanied by advanced software, this instrument allows the user to augment factory settings and customize training instruments to unique or local fuel blends. With optimum fuel & additive blending, the TD PPA minimizes transmix and contamination problems and increases laboratory efficiency.
Application
Using the TD PPA to monitor product quality, optimize fuel and additive blending, ensures government compliance, verifies chain of custody, and minimizes transmix and contamination problems.
