Phase Technology’s 70Xi cold flow properties analyzer significantly increases lab productivity and improves profitability by providing quick, precise results. The 70Xi analyzer helps minimize giveaway and ensure that released product is on spec.
Phase Technology users can be confident that their test results accurately meet and comply with ASTM International standards for pour, cloud and freeze point: ASTM D5949, D5773 and D5972.
The PSA-70Xi is the world’s only analyzer that performs pour, cloud and freeze point in one unit. And, it’s the only analyzer that has factual, valid ASTM methods for all three methods. (Warning: some manufacturers claim that their “no flow point” method “correlates” to pour point, but ASTM has not found “no flow point” to be equivalent to pour point methods.)
Phase Technology 70Xi analyzers test a wide range of petroleum, biofuel and other products including:
Phase Technology 70X series analyzers give you complete flexibility – choose the test options you need for a customized solution. Available configurations include:
Additional options such as antifreeze, black and crude oils are available.

“Our company recently bought a Freeze Point Analyzer, Model FPA-70Xi. This instrument has been a blessing, cutting our reporting time in half. We were using the manual method, so it’s great that we no longer have to deal with dry ice and manual mixing.”
