Lubricating Grease Dropping Point Tester
Lubricating Grease Dropping Point Tester TT-566
Lubricating grease dropping point tester TT-566 adheres to the ASTM D566 Standard Test Method for Dropping Point of Lubricating Grease.
Lubricating Grease Dropping Point Tester TT-566 determines the dropping point of lubricating grease, with a caution against its use at bath temperatures exceeding 288°C. For tests requiring higher temperatures, our TT-2265 (ASTM D 2265) should be utilized.
The Torontech TT-566 provides a precise determination of the dropping point for lubricating greases as defined by ASTM D566. This critical test identifies the upper-temperature limit at which a grease retains its structure, ensuring its stability and retention in components during operation. Engineered for efficiency, the unit features dual-sample capacity and a solid-state relay for enhanced reliability and service life.
Its analysis is fundamental for quality assurance and material specification in several sectors:
- Automotive: Testing greases for wheel bearings and chassis points to prevent lubricant failure under high thermal loads from braking and engine heat.
- Industrial Manufacturing: Verifying grease performance for bearings in motors, pumps, and fans to ensure lubricant integrity during continuous, heat-generating operation.
- Steel Manufacturing: Qualifying high-temperature greases essential for roller bearings and machinery operating in the extreme heat environment of mills.
- General Engineering & Maintenance: Establishing performance benchmarks for multi-purpose greases to ensure correct lubricant selection for a wide range of mechanical applications.
- The output utilizes solid-state relay technology, ensuring contactless operation without sparking or noise, and featuring an extended operating lifespan.
- It is capable of simultaneously testing two different types of sample oil, facilitated by the tube bracket.
- Featuring a well-designed structure with an aesthetically pleasing appearance, it also prioritizes environmental friendliness.
