Drew Marine Offers MAR-

TEC Specialty Equipment

As part of its comprehensive

Fuel Management Program,

Ashland Chemical's Drew Marine

Division offers MAR-TEC special- ty equipment for onboard fuel and lube analysis. MAR-TEC test kits have reportedly been used on more than 25,000 vessels. MAR-TEC tests for critical properties of both fuel and lube oils including viscos- ity, density, water content and compatibility. The products are offered in the MAN B&W Fuel and

Lube Analysis Set, and individual test cabinets for bunkers and lubes are also available. The MAR-TEC

Sample-TEC unit utilizes the sci- entifically correct flow proportion- al drip sampling process for fuel testing. Fitted to the bunker man- ifold and powered by the kinetic energy of the fuel flow, the

Sample-TEC device extracts micro-samples from the fuel in direct proportion to the rate of delivery.

Sample-TEC MV, an automated

MAR-TEC sampling device, uses a computer-controlled solenoid nee- dle valve to obtain specimens over the period of the delivery, feeding them to three sample bottles.

Each MAR-TEC test kit is sup- plied with analysis guidelines and recommendations for remedial action, and all MAR-TEC equip- ment is reportedly constructed in compliance with stringent

European electromagnetic radia- tion (EMV) laws. The following test kits are available: • MAR-TEC Viscomar Fuel and Lube Oil Viscosity Test — Measures the kinetic vis- cosity of oil and calculates the ignition quality of fuel as

CCAI and CII values; • MAR-TEC Densi-TEC —

Measures the density of marine heavy fuel at speci- fied temperatures and includes a diagram for deter- mining optimal separator disk adjustments; • MAR-TEC TOE-TEC and

TOE-TEC MX — Used for testing lube and fuel oil, respectively; and • MAR-TEC Compamar —

Measures pour point and flash point.
