The PAC Herzog CID 510 Cetane Ignition Delay Analyzer delivers industry‑leading precision for measuring Derived Cetane Number (DCN) across diesel, biodiesel, FAME, HVO, BTL, and GTL fuels. Fully automated and space‑efficient, it requires minimal operator training and offers compliance with ASTM D7668, EN 16715, IP 615, ISO 5165, and ASTM D613 correlated methods.
Features & Benefits
- Best Precision and In Perfect Correlation to ASTM D613, EN 16715 and IP615
- Test method ASTM D7668 is officially approved in diesel specifications: ASTM D975, ASTM D6751 & ASTM D7467
- ASTM D7668 can officially be used as an alternative test method to the CFR Engine acc. to ASTM D613 to certify diesel fuel
- Proven performance from joint ASTM / EI Inter Laboratory Study
- Precision (r & R) exceeds CFR Engine and other CVCC instruments
- Cross Method Reproducibility (Rxy) is much better than other CVCC alternatives
- Excellent correlation of the Cetane ID 510 to the mean value of the CFR Engine
- No Carry-Over Effect for sample measurements containing Cetane Improver
Significant Savings on Investment and Maintenance
- Requires much less valuable space than CFR Engine (no separate room necessary)
- Automated calibration for long-term stability minimizes down-time risks
- Lower investment cost than alternative technologies
- No special user training required
High Standards for Safe Operation
- Built-in fire monitoring and suppression system
- Fuel level sensor to avoid the injection system from running dry
- Over-pressure protection for fuel injection system and combustion chamber
- Automated diagnostic functions and leak test for combustion chamber
- Protected by European patent
Robust and Fully Automated Technology for High Ease of Use
- Fully automated, easy-to-use, one-button operation allows minimal operator training
- Electronically controlled high-pressure fuel injection design ensures high accuracy
- No cleaning of the test chamber required – sootless combustion eliminates cleaning of injection system and combustion chamber
- Automatic calibration with primary reference fuels
