Distillation at Atmospheric Pressure
Automatic Distillation Unit - ADU 4
ASTM D 86 - IP 123 - ISO 3405 (DIN 51 751 - NF M 07-002) - JIS K2254
Solvents: ASTM D 850 - ASTM D 1078 - IP 195
For the examination of motor
gasolines, aviation gasolines,
aviation turbine fuels, special
boiling point spirits, naphthas,
white spirits, kerosines, gas oils,
distillate fuel oils, solvents and
similar petroleum products.

Advantages
The price is lower than the price of the
competitors.
The ADU 4-System is a modular system.
The PC and the tempering unit are not built-in
to reduce the probability of a malfunction of the
complete system.
This makes repairs easier to handle and to
bridge since the user may connect another
matching PC or cooler.
Unique: Volume-Detection totally without
mechanically moving parts.
The probability of a malfunction is reduced to a
minimum.
Built-in fi re-extinguisher
11-0542
The highest achievable temperature is defi nitely
above the requested standard-range. A high
fi nal boiling point of 425 °C (stem corrected)
can be reached in the samples.
A 125 ml Quartz-fl ask should be used for such
applications.
Basic software ADUcon and the software
upgrade ADUpro are included in each ADU 4.
Small bench space:
400 x 550 x 450 mm only.
Low weight: 20 kg only
Minimum confi guration:
ADU 4, Thermostat and Printer

Details
The idea for this apparatus is to
create a modular system, which
can be up-graded on demand with
a Tempering Unit, PC or Printer.
Its characteristics are:
- Volume detection by solid
light barrier system
- Fire-Extinguisher
(Attention: requires connection
to 6-12 bar pre-pressured
external CO2 or N2.)
- Demands only an external
cooling system of small
capacity
- Small, swing-out receiver
tempering chamber!
- General supply of PCsoftware
ADUpro for
graphic evaluation
- LIMS connection is possible
ADU - Software
Extensions recommended:
- Computer (MS Windows®
compatible) for the ADU is
highly recommended.
Programs will be automatically
stored, temperature/volume
spread sheets and graphics
are available.
- Printer (incl. data-cable) for
a numerical printout of results
(if no PC is used).
The temperatures of 5 vol%
and the important values will
be printed without graphics
- Automatic Dry Point Detection
requires sensor according to
fl a s k s i ze
- Spare Part Set
for approx. 12 months operation
ADUcon Basic-Software to allow a computer-supported operation.
Accessories required:
- Glassware for others than
ASTM D 86 (Group 1-4)
- Dry-Point Sensor
- External Tempering System
to assure an ADU working range
of 0 to +80 °C:
- automatic & ADU controlled:
distillation group 0-4 & 1-4
and solvents
- manual, low cost version:
distillation group 1-4 and
solvents
In connection with a controlled
tempering system, the ADU 4 is
able to change the group from
0 to 4 during the process.
NOTE: A customer owned
tempering system could be
used, if it is able to provide a
0°C-cooling capacity of:
...approx. 200 W for group 0,
...approx. 70 W for group 1-4
For automatic data transfer a
serial RS232-interface with
HAAKE confi guration is required.
ADUpro-Screen: Temperature Graph
ADUpro PC-Software as an extension module for ADUcon with additional functions:
Heat-Parameter Optimizer: If necessary, this software recommends more adequate heat-parameters for
the next test run, automatically.
Pre-selected Temperature-Spread-Sheet: In addition to the Volume-Spread-Sheet it allows to select
nearly all required temperature-values (corrected temperature like barometric pressure corrected and
evaporated values) and the corresponding volume recovered.
Supports the distillation of solvents acc. ASTM D 850 & D 1078 with a preset parameter library for
different solvents.
Connection and simultaneous run of up to six ADU-units with one PC
(If the PC does not have that many RS232-ports, we recommend the use of a USB-Hub.)
Note: Each ADU-unit requires a separate ADUpro-Software installation.
