The Automatic Distillation Machine is used to determine the boiling characteristics of various petroleum products such as fuels, gasolines and diesels by the atmospheric distillation of the sample. The boiling point curve can be analysed and compared to boiling point curves of other petroleum products. From these comparisons, compositions of the various fuels can be determined.

Test Procedure

The NDI 440 Automatic Distillation test procedure was compiled by S.C. Rencken during December 2011
