Four Ball Lubricant Tester

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document provides detailed information about the Stanhope-Seta Four Ball Lubricant Tester, a device used to determine the friction and wear properties of extreme pressure oils and greases. It is applicable in tribology research laboratories and for quality control of lubrication products.

Specifications:

Applied loads range up to 800 kgF.
Drive speed ranges from 1200 to 1760 rpm.
Digital timer and display with a range from 0.1s to 9999 hr.
Microprocessor control of applied load and torque with automatic torque limiting and cut-off.
Interlocked guards for safety, with optional heating pad and controller.

Test Method: The tester operates by rotating a ball against three stationary balls in a lubricant-filled pot. The load is adjustable between 40 to 800 kgF, and the torque is measured and displayed digitally.

Standards: The tester complies with several standards including ASTM D2266, ASTM D4172, ASTM D2596, ASTM D2783, BS EN ISO 20623, BS ISO 26422, CEC L-45-A-99, DIN 51 350, and IP 239.

Optional Accessories:

Wear Loading Kit for manual system conversion.
CCD digital microscope and camera for ball scar measurement.
Shear stability head and temperature control system for specific test methods.
Torque arm with removable cup and test balls for various ASTM standards.

Technical Specifications:

Voltage: 220/240V, 50/60Hz, 32 A (single phase).
Power: 2.6 kW.
Dimensions: 165 x 82 x 62 cm (Autoload), 169 x 82 x 62 cm (Manual).
Weight: 180 kg (Autoload), 161 kg (Manual).
