TS in Gasoline and Diesel ASTM D5453 ISO 20846 NEXIS VP
Instrument reliability, compliance, ease-of-use, stability and accuracy are key factors for customers to consider, when they need to select a Combustion Analyzer to report accurate total sulfur data to their (internal) customers. In the
field of petroleum industry, the analysis of automotive fuels is most routine and drives laboratories to automation and fast reporting of precise data day-in-day out. The use of round robin or proficiency testing data are also a tool to proof that the existing analyzer condition fits within the scope of the method and assure the
reported data are within the confidence limits.
This Application Note shows the long-term performance of the NEXIS VP model Total Sulfur Analyzer for a set of gasoline and diesel fuel samples based on a 21-days trial to determine the precision of the obtained results in compliance to ASTM D5453, ISO 20846 methods and the TIER 3 program. The obtained data from this test also indicate the stability of the instrument configuration without recalibration of the detector or perform any maintenance of
the analyzer. This also can be supported with so-called Shewart plots generated through the instrument operating software (NEXIS LINK), which enables customers to optimize their QC operation.
