Vacuum Distillation Tester AZA1340

The AZA1340 Vacuum Distillation Tester from AZA LAB is a high-precision analytical instrument designed for the determination of distillation characteristics of petroleum products under reduced pressure, in full compliance with ASTM D1160.

Operating within a controlled vacuum range of 0.13 kPa to 6.7 kPa (1–50 mmHg), the AZA1340 enables accurate evaluation of high-boiling petroleum fractions that cannot be tested under atmospheric conditions. The system provides reliable measurement of Initial Boiling Point (IBP), Final Boiling Point (FBP), and complete vacuum distillation curves, which are automatically converted into atmospheric equivalent boiling temperatures for standardized reporting.

With its stable vacuum control, precision temperature measurement, efficient refrigeration system, and robust safety design, the AZA1340 is ideally suited for refineries, petroleum testing laboratories, quality control centers, and research institutions requiring accurate and repeatable vacuum distillation analysis.
