Tamson Instruments Specification sheet Cold Soak Filtration Test (CSFT) of Biodiesel ASTM D7501 - IP PM EA - CEN N 403 - CGSB 3.0 No. 142 menu selectable Opening bath Ambient condition 18 .. 23 All models conform to CE regulation General In this test method, 300 mL of biodiesel (B100) is stored at 4.5 ± 0.5°C (40 ± 1°F) for 16 hours, allowed to warm to 25 ± 1°C (77 ± 2°F), and vacuum filtered through a single 0.7 μm glass fiber filter at controlled vacuum levels of ~70–85 kPa (21–25 in. of Hg). Bath volume Construction TLB50 bath (please see also TLB50 specification sheet) is specially designed to condition the biodiesel samples in 500 mL jars at 4.5°C for sixteen hours. The Tamson TLB50 bath can be used to maintain the samples at +25°C after the cold soak test. From 4.5°C, the TLB50 can reach 25°C within 30 minutes. A separate laptop with TamCom software can be used to control the setpoint temperature. The cold soak bath is delivered complete with a levelling platform, rack and bottle holders, to prevent the bottles from floating. The TLB50 cold soak bath is a specially designed bench top unit with digital temperature control suitable for cooling and heating samples in accordance with IP PM EA, CEN N 403, ASTM D7501, and CGSB 3.0 No. 142. Completely stainless steel Drain to empty bath Overflow protection Large bath Very quiet Smart rack to position flasks Up to 12 x 500 mL jars Optional alarm Filtration kit for ASTM D7501 (P/N 31T2000) consists of 0.7 micron filters (100 pcs), glass filter funnel and clamp, filter forceps, one litre safety flask, one litre receiving flask, 500 mL cylinder, graduated in 5 mL increments, petri dishes (ten pieces), watch glasses (ten pieces), glass piece with earth lead, stopper with hole (two pieces), stopwatch, and tubing. Temperature control With the compressor running continuously, the fluid temperature is regulated through an electronic controlled heater. The cooling power of the bath is maximized when cooling down to the set point. When the set point temperature is reached cooling power is strongly reduced and it is saving significant energy. In comparison to other standard instruments the TLB50 can save up to 600 Watt of electric energy. Above 40°C cooling is switched-off automatically to save energy. Cooling medium The used cooling system is ozone friendly and doesn’t contain any CFK/HCFK gas.

Tamson Instruments Specification sheet Cold Soak Filtration Test (CSFT) of Biodiesel ASTM D7501 - IP PM EA - CEN N 403 - CGSB 3.0 No. 142 Safety The bath conforms to CE regulation. The bath has a standard built-in mechanical safety over temperature protection. In case of electronic failure, the bath will be mechanically switched-off when the temperature rises above the set temperature of this protection device. The bath is equipped with a float that will warn the user with an acoustic signal when the level of the bath fluid is too low. Time [hrs:min] Homogeneity Better than ± 0.01°C - In...
