ULS in petroleum fuels by ASTM D2622-10: Micro-Z UL

21 May, 2014

Published over 12 years ago. See the latest and most current information on Analytical instrumentation.

Designed for ultra-low level sulfur analysis of diesel, petrol (gasoline) and other fuels, the Rigaku Micro-Z ULS wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WDXRF) instrument features a novel design that measures both the sulfur peak and the back-ground intensity. The ability to measure and correct for changes in background intensity delivers a better net peak intensity measurement, resulting in superior calibrations and enhanced real world precision. Rigaku Micro-Z ULS complies with ASTM 2622-10, ISO 20884 and JIS K2541-7 methods.

Superior optics for reliable sulfur analyses

The Rigaku Micro-Z ULS is the ideal solution for sulfur analysis of petroleum based fuels, with a lower limit of detection (LLD) of 0.3 ppm sulfur. Employing robust fixed optics in a vacuum environment, and featuring a specially designed doubly curved RX-9 analysing crystal, the Micro Z ULS delivers consistent high sensitivity measurements.

ASTM D2622 performance for non-technical users

Specifically designed for non-technical users, all operations – from calibration through routine analysis – can be performed via the easy-to-use interface. And the analyser can be powered by any standard 'wall' AC outlet. 

Features:

  • Ultra-low sulfur analysis of diesel and gasoline
  • 0.3 ppm lower limit of detection (LLD)
  • No He(g) purge required
  • Easy-to-use benchtop analyser
  • Complies with ASTM D2622-10
  • Complies with ISO 20884
  • Complies with JIS K2541-7.
