91670-2 SETA COLD FILTER BLOCKING TESTER

91670-2 Seta Cold Filter Blocking Tester is a specialised benchtop laboratory instrument designed to measure the cold filterability of middle distillate fuels, including those containing biodiesel blends. It is widely used in fuel testing laboratories, refineries, and quality control facilities to assess fuel performance under low-temperature conditions.
The system evaluates the tendency of fuels to block filters at cold temperatures, a critical parameter for ensuring reliable engine operation in cold climates. Poor cold flow properties can lead to fuel starvation, reduced engine efficiency, or complete system blockage, making accurate testing essential for diesel and biodiesel fuel quality assurance.
The 91670-2 Seta Cold Filter Blocking Tester provides a controlled and repeatable method for determining cold filter plugging characteristics in accordance with industry standards. It is specifically designed to simulate real-world conditions where fuel must pass through fine filters at low temperatures.
As a benchtop unit, the system is compact and suitable for laboratory environments where space efficiency is important. Despite its small footprint, it delivers precise temperature control and reliable test performance, ensuring consistent and reproducible results across multiple samples.
The instrument is particularly valuable for testing fuels containing biodiesel, where cold flow behaviour can vary significantly depending on composition and blend ratios. By identifying potential filter blockage issues, the system helps fuel producers optimise formulations and ensure compliance with cold weather performance specifications.
