Product DescriptionJet Fuel Thermal Oxidation Tester (JFTOT®)

• Safely study thermal oxidation of any typical petroleum or synthetic based liquid jet fuel

• Facilitates formation of deposits from jet fuel heated in the presence of dissolved oxygen (aeration) and a metal surface (heater tube)– Pressurization of jet fuel (500 psi ± 10%)– Thermal stability (180⁰C - 380 ⁰C ± 2⁰C of setpoint)– Isocratic flow (3 ml ± 0.3 ml)– Test time (150 min ± 2 min)

Key Advantages

SIMPLIFIED OPERATION

ENHANCED SAFETY

INCREASEDLAB

PRODUCTIVITY

8

Key AdvantagesENHANCED BUILT-IN SAFETY

Creating a Safe Environment in the Lab

•Vapor containment system: decreases operator exposure to jet fuel vapor•Safety door: prevents exposure to the hot heater tube section; test won’t start until the door is closed•Reduced exposure to fuel: fuel is flushed at the end of the test; keeps test section dry during disassembly

9

Key AdvantagesSIMPLEFIED OPERATION

High levels of automation and hardware

advancements

•Automates traditionally time-intensive manual activities: such as pump priming, flow monitoring, and sample aeration•Enhanced user functionalities: quick-connect dryer canister, tool-less fasteners, and automatic line flushing to minimize fuel exposure•New fully integrated RFID reader: easy and fast data extraction•Built-in IHT writer: seamless integration with the Alcor Intelligent Heater Tubes™•Multiple languages: instrument software supports many local language requirements

10

Key AdvantagesINCREASED LAB PRODUCTIVITY BY 25%

Reduced User Intervention

JFTOT IV with advanced technology improvements:•Significantly faster analysis cycle time•Reduces operator intervention by approximately 40 minutes•Allows the operator to focus on higher value responsibilities.•Provides traceable results with the Intelligent Heater Tube (IHT) by storing the analysis data electronically on the IHT, rather than on having a hard copy print out of the test

11

Value Proposition Summary

• Differentiators– Smaller footprint– Lighter weight– Safety– Ease of use– Increased productivity– Multiple languages
