FREEZING POINT OF AQUEOUS ENGINE COOLANT
FREEZING POINT OF AQUEOUS ENGINE COOLANT (AUTOMATIC) – ASTM 1177 / JIS K 2234 / IS 5759
Model Code: SEWFP01 (Single place assembly)
SEWFP02 (Two place assembly)
SEWFP02 (Two place assembly)
This test method covers the determination of the dropping point of lubricating grease. A sample of lubricating grease contained in a cup suspended in a test tube is heated in an oil bath at a prescribed rate. The temperature at which material falls from the hole in the bottom of the cup is averaged with the temperature of the oil bath and recorded as the dropping point of the grease.
