HKL-6371 Automatic Cold Filter Plugging Point Tester
Overview
HKL-6371 Automatic Cold Filter Plugging Point Tester conforms to standard ASTM D6371 Standard Test Method for Cold Filter Plugging Point of Diesel and Heating Fuels. A specimen of the sample is cooled under specified conditions and, at intervals of 1°C, is drawn into a pipet under a controlled vacuum through a standardized wire mesh filter. The procedure is repeated, as the specimen continues to cool, for each 1°C below the first test temperature. Testing is continued until the amount of wax crystals that have separated out of solution is sufficient to stop or slow down the flow so that the time taken to fill the pipet exceeds 60 s or the fuel fails to return completely to the test jar before the fuel has cooled by a further 1°C. The indicated temperature at which the last filtration was commenced is recorded as the CFPP.
.The CFPP of a fuel is suitable for estimating the lowest temperature at which a fuel will give trouble-free flow in certain fuel systems
Features
The main part operates compressor refrigeration, which means there is no need for circulating cooling water. It relies on air cooling with a fan and starts cooling as soon as it gets power.
This instrument is equipped with an imported digital temperature controller for accurate temperature control. In order to satisfy the high level requirement of temperature control and at the same time extend the life of the compressor, it has been installed with an auxiliary heating tube. PT100 sensor guarantees high resolution, strong anti-interference capability, high temperature control accuracy and other excellent performances.
The cooling chamber, which is made of copper tubing, has a very high heat storage capacity. This enables simultaneous testing of two samples and also the possibility of continuous running.
The refrigeration system grabs on to advanced patented technology giving the chance to a single compressor to cool the chamber below -40°C without any other effort. The compressor has compact and lightweight size, stable operation and minimum vibration.
The unit includes a suction filtration device.

FAQ
Q1: What standards does this product (HKL-6371 Automatic Cold Filter Plugging Point Tester) comply with?
A: HKL-6371 Automatic Cold Filter Plugging Point Tester conforms to standard ASTM D6371 Standard Test Method for Cold Filter Plugging Point of Diesel and Heating Fuels. A specimen of the sample is cooled under specified conditions and, at intervals of 1°C, is drawn into a pipet under a controlled vacuum through a standardized wire mesh filter. The procedure is repeated, as the specimen continues to cool, for each 1°C below the first test temperature. Testing is continued until the amount of wax crystals that have separated out of solution is sufficient to stop or slow down the flow so that the time taken to fill the pipet exceeds 60 s or the fuel fails to return completely to the test jar before the fuel has cooled by a further 1°C. The indicated temperature at which the last filtration was commenced is recorded as the CFPP.
Q2: What is the significance of CFPP’s testing?
A: This test method is for identifying the cold filter plugging point (CFPP) temperature of diesel and domestic heating fuels by means of manual or automated tools. The CFPP of a fuel is a good indicator of its ability to continue flowing smoothly at very low temperatures in some fuel systems without causing any problems.
Q3: What is the minimum order quantity? How long is the delivery lead time?
A: The minimum quantity for one order is one unit, and the delivery time is around 20 days from the date of receiving advance payment.
Q4: Do you provide product operation manuals or technical documentation?
A: Yes, We provide electronic editions of product manuals, quick guides, application cases, and standard operating procedures (SOPs). You can get them by signing into the download center on our official website or by asking customer service for the arrangement.
Q5: Do you provide online training services?
A: We can offer online installation and debugging services if required, and we also provide full operation training. Besides that, we ensure 24/7 online training support for the end users all year round.
