Colorimeter---Color Measurement

Measurement of chroma

Dual-channel explosion-proof absorption sensor

Color measurement is crucial; it's a vital guarantee for process control and quality compliance. A change in the medium's color usually indicates a process issue at a certain point, such as overheating, incorrect proportions, contamination, or defects in the finished product appearance. Generally, colorimeters are used to measure color periodically by taking samples from the pipeline to the lab for visual observation or analysis. Installing a colorimeter on the pipeline allows for real-time detection of changes in the medium's color value.

Refining of hydrocarbons and chromaticity units

Refining and petrochemical industries typically use Saybolt and ASTM color units (or others) to quantify product quality. The ASTM D1500 color standard (0.0 to 8.0 ASTM) is generally used to measure the color of lubricating oils, heating oils, and diesel, specifying that each 0.5 ASTM is a grade, with a total of 16 grades. For products with lighter colors below 0.5 ASTM, the Saybolt color unit is usually employed. The ASTM D156 specifies the Saybolt color range as +30 to -16 Saybolt, which is generally used to measure the color of aviation fuel, color analyzers, aircraft fuel, kerosene, naphtha, and NGL.

Colorimeter --- Refining Oil Product Color

In the petroleum refining or other petrochemical industries, installing our online chromometer can immediately detect color changes in process liquids, alerting operators to a problem in the process that requires prompt attention to prevent quality issues in the finished product. Therefore, with the chromometer installed, users can avoid significant losses and enjoy other benefits, as well.

In the past, without online chromometers, operators would take samples and compare them with other color standards, then manually judge whether the color of the process medium had changed. The drawback of this method was its high margin of error. Now, these tasks can be fully replaced by our company's online chromometer, and the measurement results are, even more, timely!
