3. Why is octane used as a fuel?
Fuel octane rating is a measure of the capability of a fuel
to resist compression before it spontaneously self-ignites.
Thus, fuel with a higher octane number can withstand
greater pressure inside the cylinder before igniting in this
fashion.
4. PORTABLE OCTANE METER SX-100M
Octane Meter is developed in Petroleum Chemisorption
Institute of Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of
Science. The fuel quality analyzer Octane Meter is intended
for evaluation of the type of gasoline, and determination its
octane number. The Octane Meter also determines the
cetane number of diesel fuel.
Equally good the Octane Meter measures the parameters of
the leaded and unleaded gasoline, as well as the gasoline
with different additives. 10 seconds is the maximum time to
detect the type of gasoline at the worst conditions (cold
start). The entire process is automated - the operator only
needs to fill the sensor with the gasoline, turn on the
instrument, and write down the results from the display.
5. The Octane Meter is simple in use, and does not require regular adjustments and special
maintenance. The use of the Octane Meter eliminates the human factor during the quality
estimation of the oil products. It's recommended to use the instrument at petroleum storages,
filling stations, customs houses, and for the check of the samples in gasoline production lines.
The measurement principle of the octane level is based on a comparative analysis between the
paraMeters of the analyzed gasoline and the reference gasoline paraMeters stored in the
microprocessor's memory.
The design of the instrument and the measurement algorithm provides a high-level noise
immunity and, as a result, a stable measurement. During gasoline blending octane level can be
controlled within the range from 40 to 120. There is an option to adjust the instrument for a
nonstandard fuel, for example, natural (gaseous condensate) or virgin gasoline. An advanced
user can perform such an adjustment without assistance of the instrument maker.
6. Octane Meter SX-100M
Octane Meter SX-100M in comparison with the base model has: more durable case,
more integral parameters of the gasoline and diesel fuel types, four line LCD which
displays at the same time the octane number of the analyzed sample by research
and motor methods, and temperature of the sample. Cetane number and freezing
temperature (as option) is displayed during the analysis of diesel fuel.
Octane Meter SX-100M has 6 modes of operation, 3 of them are general:
1) the base mode, for the determination of the ON of standard gasoline;
2) the mode for the analysis of low octane gasoline produced by blending, and also
for gasoline with the 95 octane number;
3) for the analysis of the cetane number of diesel fuel.
7. Octane Tester capabilities:
• Measurement of octane level;
• Measurement of cetane level;
• Measurement of freezing-point of diesel fuel;
• Motor oil purity level measurement;
• Transformer oil disruption voltage measurement;
• Transformer oil dielectric dissipation measurement;
• Fuel and oil dielectric conductivity measurement.
8. Advantages of Octane meterSX-100K
You can take measurements and make the measurement table in txt or xls format which
include the information about sample at the same time;
The correction of the measurment become much easier;
The information about the work of octane tester, correction, and measurment data are
display on the screen of the computer.

11. PORTABLE OCTANE METER SX-100K with RS-232 interface
Portable octane analyzer is used for instant octane rating of motor
gasoline, corresponding to motor and research methods (RON and
MON) as well as for cetane number of diesel fuels. In addition for an
inquiries, temperature rating of the analyzed liquid and diesel fuel
solidification is provided. The results of measuring are displayed on
the LCD.
The operational principle of the Octane Meter lies in gasoline octane
rating and diesel fuel cetane rating based on the analysis of change of
properties of an dielectric permeability and electromagnetic
induction.
Octane analyzer has the portable compact design and is used for on-
line inspection of motor fuel quality in the field and laboratory
conditions. The operating conditions of the Octane analyzer usage:
ambient temperature from –10C to +30C, relative humidity 80% at
25 C, atmosphere pressure 84-106kPa. The device gets power from
DC elements of type AA (supply voltage 6V).
