WATER-ELECTRIC CENTRIFUGES

The Robinson combination
WATER-ELECTRIC unit operates just like the Robinson WATER HEATED unit.
However, in cases where vehicle heat is insufficient to preheat the sample
rapidly enough, a separate electric heater is required, and our combination
WATER-ELECTRIC unit provides a separate, two-place electric heater built into
the centrifuge.
Centrifuge
features include:
1. A circular design offering a high-efficiency unit that meets or exceeds
RCF requirements of API and ASTM.
2. A heavy aluminum casting with a large watertight cavity for maximum heating
capacity. The lager the cavity, the more hot water circulating in the centrifuge,
the greater the BTU's available for heating the oil sample.
3. A rheostat control with an "off" position for a slow, smooth
start and speed control.
4. Top-entry motor removal for replacement without having to remove the centrifuge
from its mountings.
5. A motor mount plate with a ball bearing provides stabilizing support for
the motor shaft.
6. One-inch thick mounting feet to reduce casting failures.
7. Lid designed with a hole in the center so that the centrifuge RPM's can
be checked with a hand held tachometer with the centrifuge lid closed.
8. A pre-heater section, with four pockets, located in the front of the centrifuge
for easy operator access. Two pockets are like a separate electric heater
built into the centrifuge. Depending upon the oil sample's starting temperatures,
the electric pre-heater section, operated by a "high-off-low" switch
and controlled by the operator,
can raise the temperature of the two samples to 140 degrees F in minutes.
9. Space-saver design because a separate heater is not required.
10. An easy-replacement pre-heater switch. Remove four screws to free the
front plate and remove the switch.
11. Easy-replacement heaters in the pre-heater section. The switch heater
wires are disconnected by removing the switch as described in feature #9 above.
Remove two screws and lift the heaters out of the pre-heater pockets.
Specifications: 100ml short cone, 12 VDC, water-electric heated, 12 ½" x 20" x 10 ½", 54 lbs.
