Semi-Automatic ASTM D2892 D5236

This system performs semi-autoamtic D2892 and D5236 crude oil distillation. Just put sample in the boiling flask and start the test. Everything else is done automatically.

  • Choose ASTM D2892 or D5236
  • Or choose both tests in the same unit
  • D2892 boiling flask sizes from 1 to 60 liters
  • D5236 boiling flask sizes from 1 to 30 liters

ASTM D2892 "True Boiling Point Distillation" is used for semi-automatic distillation of crude oil samples from their initial boiling point up 400 °C. Fractions from butane up to middle distillates can be collected for quantification and further analysis.


ASTM D5236 "Vacuum Pot Still" for semi-automatic distillation of the residue from D2892 up to 565 °C or higher. Fractions of middle distillates up to asphalts can be collected for quantification and further analysis.
