A new vision for atmospheric distillation testing for fuels and solvents

Oct 02 2024

Powered by innovation, the VD10 analyser from AD Systems is a new generation of laboratory analyser for automated distillation at atmospheric pressure according to ASTM D86 and similar test methods. The patented imaging system brings unmatched automation and precision to this routine analysis of fuels and solvents.

The VD10’s high-resolution digital camera visually monitors all phases of sample boiling, anticipating and predicting the optimal heater settings to respect standard method conditions for IBP, 5% timings, and distillation rate control.

Just put a 100 mL sample in the flask, place it on the instrument and press START. Without any need for a pre-programming or optimisation, the instrument performs a method-compliant distillation run from the first attempt, even for unknown or difficult samples like biofuels. The user-friendly interface includes all necessary features for operation, result reporting, quality assurance and traceability, diagnostics, and LIMS communication.

High-quality components, precise sensors, and robust construction assure reliability for heavy-duty, safe use with minimum maintenance. The VD10 is arguably the most advanced and innovative instrument for atmospheric distillation available today.
