About

King Brookfield Liquid Bath (BLB) measures low temperature viscosity of ATF’s, gear oils and hydraulic oils and other fluid lubricants using a patented SimAir^® technique which allows the use of a small, less costly, constant temperature liquid bath. The only technique available that permits independent sample analyses which eliminates the need for batch sample testing.

The BLB is a widely used low-temperature test for a variety of industry specifications.

Features & Benefits

Unique Tannas SimAir^® Test Cells provide proper sample temperature control for accurate, precise results and permits each test cell to operate independently, increasing productivity.
Features a 12-position carousel with 12 independent sample cells
BLB models: Capable of measuring a broad temperature range of +30°C to –70°C (BLB702) and +30°C to –40°C (BLB 701).
SimAir®/DIN model: Capable of measuring a broad temperature range of +30°C to –55°C.
Fully self-contained internal hermetic refrigeration system – no external refrigeration units or controllers needed.
Digital temperature controller keeps bath temperature within +/- 0.1°C.
Small bench top footprint with large illuminated viewing window.
Includes top mount for Brookfield viscometer (viscometer available separately).
Internal air system provides a continuous blanket of dry air over samples to eliminate moisture buildup.
Safety features include high-pressure cutout, high temperature limits, and low level shutdown.
