The D892 and D6082 Dual Twin Foaming Characteristics Test Apparatus is an advanced testing system designed to measure the foaming tendency and stability of lubricating oils in accordance with ASTM D892 and ASTM D6082 standards.
Featuring dual liquid baths with precise digital temperature control and four independent flowmeters, this instrument enables accurate testing across Sequences I through IV, ensuring comprehensive assessment of foam formation, persistence, and collapse under controlled aeration and temperature conditions.
The Dual Twin Foaming Characteristics Test Apparatus provides a complete solution for evaluating lubricant foaming properties under both standard and high-temperature conditions.
Conforming to ASTM D892 (Standard Foaming Test) and ASTM D6082 (High-Temperature Sequence IV Test), the apparatus features dual constant-temperature baths—each capable of independently maintaining test conditions for multiple samples simultaneously.
Four precision flowmeters regulate airflow at 94 mL/min (ASTM D892) and 200 mL/min (ASTM D6082), ensuring compliance with standard specifications.
Digital microprocessor-based PID temperature control provides accurate and stable temperature regulation, while built-in over-temperature protection ensures operational safety.
An external chiller is required for performing Sequences I and III at 24°C. The system is supplied with calibrated diffuser stones, air delivery assemblies, and borosilicate test cylinders—delivering a fully equipped, turnkey solution for lubricant foaming analysis.
