HKL-4530 Micro Carbon Residue Apparatus
Overview
HKL-4530 Micro Carbon Residue Apparatus conforms to theASTM D4530 Standard Test Method for Determination of Carbon Residue (Micro Method). A small sample of the material is first weighed, then put into a glass container where it is carefully heated up to 500°C in an inert nitrogen atmosphere. During the heating, the sample participates in coking reactions, and the gases that are formed are carried away by the nitrogen stream. The carbonaceous residue left after the procedure is expressed as the percentage of the initial sample as the carbon residue.
Features
This instrument adopts a single-chip microcomputer for measurement and control. It is in accordance with ASTM D4530 standard and it features blue-screen digital dot matrix display powered by advanced technology. Also, the mainboard is provided with a communication interface.
The instrument has the human-machine dialogue fully interactive and it is controlled via two sets of passwords. One set is for controlling persons to only changing parameters (it is not preset, it is to be set by the user) to prevent inexperienced personnel from changing experimental data. The other set restricts the total number of tests to be done, acts as a reminder for timely maintenance. Such passwords are administered by technical personnel to assure data accuracy.
The device has complete programmable command to control the whole heating operation. A sophisticated 18-bit data line provides an exact heating rate, and a temperature hysteresis function was created to keep the temperature not exceeding 502°C during the manipulation, settling at no less than 498°C after the set temperature being achieved. The speed of heating and the actual temperature are shown simultaneously so that one can discern instrument states such as purge, heating, or constant temperature just by looking at the screen.
The instrument adopts heating rods from overseas to ensure long service life and it is quite easy to clean the rods. Reasonably, only one rod needs to be changed or removed and it takes about 10 minutes, so you cannot be bothered by sending the unit back to the manufacturer for repair. This is the solution for the problem when the whole combustion core needed to be changed in the past.
The combustion chamber is located at the front of the instrument and the collection bottle for the waste liquid is right below it. This design takes away the trouble of the equipment that has the collection bottle at the bottom and replacement is very difficult.
Traditional analyzers have a variety of problems such as complicated parts, lack of integration, and installation, as well as maintenance, being very inconvenient. This instrument has a gas pipeline system specially designed, compact parts, and a neat layout, so that it can be installed and serviced easily.
The heating element is incorporated into the top lid, making the assembly and servicing quite straightforward and easy. For the electrical control panel, we have chosen a drawer-type design that is not only visually appealing but also quite functional.

Automate nitrogen flow rate adjustments fully following standard requirements, combine automatic heating rate control, set temperature maintenance along with gas flow adjustment ease, and the three – accurate heating rate, temperature stability, and gas flow adjustment – control with ease.
Operating Conditions: The instrument can operate normally under the following environmental and working conditions:
Ambient Temperature: 5°C to 35°C
Relative Humidity: 45–75%
Atmospheric Pressure: 86–106 kPa
Power Supply: Single-phase AC, Rated Voltage: 220V ±5%, Frequency: 50Hz, Current: 5A

The nitrogen gas entering the tester must be filtered through a gas filter and regulated by a pressure-reducing valve.
Note: The power supply must be properly grounded for safe operation.
FAQ
Q1: What standards does this product (HKL-4530 Micro Carbon Residue Apparatus) comply with?
A: HKL-4530 Micro Carbon Residue Apparatus conforms to theASTM D4530 Standard Test Method for Determination of Carbon Residue (Micro Method). This test method aims to measure the quantity of carbon residue generated after the samples of petroleum products undergo evaporation and pyrolysis under specific conditions. The results will be used to reflect, at least somewhat, the coke-producing potential of these products.
Q2: What is the significance and use of HKL-4530 Micro Carbon Residue Apparatus?
A: The carbon residue value of various petroleum materials provides an estimate of how likely the material is to produce carbonaceous deposits under degradation conditions similar to those in the test method. It can be a good reference when manufacturing certain stocks. But interpreting the results requires caution.
Q3: What is the minimum order quantity? How long is the delivery lead time?
A: We require at least one unit per order, and delivery is about 20 days after payment in advance.
Q4: Do you provide product operation manuals or technical documentation?
A: Yes, we provide digital copies of product manuals, quick start guides, application examples, and standard operating procedures (SOPs). You can get these either by signing into the download center on our official website or by asking through customer service that they be sent to you.
Q5: Do you provide online training services?
A: Should you require attention, we shall deliver the web-based installation and operation services as well as complete functional training. Besides that, we give the constant, 24/7 online instruction backing for the final customers all year round.
