Precision Automated Distillation Analyzer AZA1281

The AZA1281 Precision Automated Distillation Analyzer from AZA Lab is a fully automated, high-accuracy instrument engineered for determining the distillation characteristics of petroleum products in strict compliance with ASTM D86, ISO 3405, IP 123, and equivalent international standards. Designed for modern petroleum laboratories, refineries, and regulatory testing facilities, the AZA1281 delivers exceptional repeatability, accuracy, and operational safety.

By automating the entire distillation process—from controlled heating to end-point detection and reporting—the AZA1281 minimizes operator dependency while maximizing consistency and compliance.

Description

Description

Fully Automated ASTM D86 Distillation Solution

The AZA1281 manages heating control, temperature measurement, distillation rate regulation, volume recovery detection, and data logging automatically. Advanced optical sensing technology accurately identifies the initial boiling point (IBP) and continuously tracks recovered volume throughout the test.

A high-resolution touch screen interface provides real-time visualization of vapor temperature, recovered volume, and distillation progress, allowing operators to monitor tests intuitively without manual intervention.

This analyzer is ideally suited for testing gasoline, kerosene, naphtha, diesel, jet fuel, and other light petroleum products, ensuring precise boiling range analysis in demanding laboratory environments.
