testing of inhibitors has the major benefit of short measurement
time and giving vital information about the mechanism of
inhibition. Corrosion
rates can be determined in minutes while weight loss methods can
take days. Inhibitors
protect by changing the anodic or cathodic reactions, forming a
barrier between metal and electrolyte or a combination of both.
Confidence in these measurements is gained by replication.
Our laboratory instrumentation is perfect for inhibitor testing.
Multiple channels ensure replication whilst our precision
electronics gives accurate results every time.
Using Linear Polarisation Resistance, AC Impedance or
Current & Voltage Noise is easy with the supplied Sequencer
software. Protection
efficiency of corrosion inhibitors is evaluated by measuring
corrosion rates of a test system with and without added inhibitor.
Recognising
the need to make complicated tests simpler, ACM Instruments have
developed our Bubble Test Software.
This has become a great favourite with developers and users
of oilfield inhibitors. Allowing
an initial set-up of the required test to be saved under a
password the software is so easy to use the most junior technician
can perform tests and produce perfect reports from the first day.
The software is geared to producing these reports at the
end of the run, easily with no fuss.
The
Bubble Test Software can be used with our Gill
12, Gill 8, DC12, or Multichannel Field
Machine. It may
be ordered after the instrument is purchased if the need arises.
This software is not restricted to bubble testing, it is
perfectly suitable for testing in stationary cells, flow loops,
autoclaves and any other metal/electrolyte situation. As
supplied, our standard Gill 12 will perform all the tests needed
to measure percentage inhibition using the Sequencer, however the
Bubble Test amalgamates the test sequence, the point of inhibitor
addition, the analysis and the graph plotting into one simple
test, with no further analysis needed.
ACM
have set the standards for Inhibitor testing, our reliable, good
looking, accurate equipment is to be found in Inhibitor
laboratories the world over, from a University with a single Gill
AC to a giant specialist chemical company with banks of Gill 12's
or Gill AC's working in parallel.
Plus, last but not least, the Bubble Test will operate
multiple instruments in parallel for simultaneous testing of as
many samples as you require.
