There are four preheater pockets inside the centrifuge unit. A hole in the center of the lid allows the operator to check the speed of the rotating head by using a hand held tachometer with an extension (18098 and 1809801). This unit is designed for 60 HZ operation. This centrifuge will meet the requirements of the API MPMS 10.4,"Determination of Water and Sediment in Crude Oil by the Centrifuge Method (Field Procedure)."
