Cloud Point Process Analyzer is intended for use in the petrochemical industry. It serves for fully automatic determination of the cloud point of transparent, liquid hydrocarbons in the production process.In many petrochemical production facilities it is necessary to determine the cloud point of mineral oil products . A sample is cooled under defined conditions and the cloud point of the product is monitored. The temperature at which a cloud of paraffin crystals first precipitates leading to clouding of the product is known as the cloud point.Determination of the paraffin concentration in liquid hydrocarbons is highly important for further processing as well as for the usability of mineral oil products. Moreover, determination of the cloud point can also be used for internal purposes such as checking the parameters for process optimization or checking sales standards.
