Automated Cold Cranking Simulator TT-CCS-II
Automated Cold Cranking Simulator TT-CCS-II is designed for precise measurement of the apparent viscosity of engine oils at extremely low temperatures (-35°C to -5°C). Utilizing a high-performance rotor-stator system, the instrument ensures accurate viscosity readings by correlating rotation speed to viscosity levels. Its advanced thermoelectric refrigeration system offers enhanced temperature control, reducing preheating time and increasing measurement accuracy.
Compact and user-friendly, the TT-CCS-II is an ideal solution for viscosity testing in the automotive and industrial sectors.
The Torontech TT-CCS-II is an advanced instrument for determining the low-temperature cranking viscosity of engine oils. This test is the definitive measure of an oil's ability to flow during a cold start, a fundamental performance requirement that dictates engine startability and protection in cold climates. By providing the essential data for classifying oils according to SAE J300 specifications, it serves as a cornerstone for both quality assurance and product development.
This critical performance analysis is indispensable for ensuring reliability in:
- Lubricant Manufacturing & Blending: As a primary quality control test for every batch of multi-grade engine oil, ensuring products meet stringent SAE and OEM specifications for cold-start performance before market release.
- Automotive R&D & OEMs: For validating new oil formulations, especially modern, low-viscosity oils for fuel efficiency, and for establishing the low-temperature performance requirements that guarantee reliable engine startability across all specified operating climates.
- Petroleum Additive Development: As a fundamental tool for the research and development of new viscosity index improvers and pour point depressants, providing the precise data needed to prove their effectiveness in improving the low-temperature fluidity of base oils.
- Commercial & Third-Party Testing: For providing independent verification and certification of engine oil quality, ensuring that products sold in the market meet their claimed performance levels for the protection of consumers and commercial fleets.
