MOBILE LABORATORY FOR QUALITY CONTROL OF FUEL AND LUBRICANTS Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC B60P3/00 

FIELD: mobile laboratories.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to mobile laboratories for quality control of fuels and lubricants, in particular for identifying the type of impersonal and trophy fuels, lubricating oils and special liquids, as well as determining their physical and chemical properties. The mobile laboratory for quality control of fuels and lubricants is mounted in a heat-insulated all-metal van (1) mounted on an all-wheel drive chassis (2) with off-road capability, and has laboratory furniture, a set of instruments and laboratory glassware necessary for testing petroleum products, auxiliary engineering systems and devices ensuring the autonomy of the laboratory and the safe life of the crew. The mobile laboratory is able to identify the type of fuels and lubricants and determine their quality indicators: water content and mechanical impurities, density, fractional composition, crystallization temperature, turbidity, pour point, filterability limit temperature, kinematic viscosity, flash point in an open and closed crucible, content of water-soluble acids and alkalis, octane and cetane number, the presence of additives.

EFFECT: invention increases the efficiency of the mobile laboratory by expanding the range of controlled quality indicators of fuels and lubricants, reduces testing time without reducing the requirements for reliability of test results through the use of express devices with a simultaneous increase in cross-country ability and improved living conditions for the crew.
