Product information

This product supersedes product no: 555755

The Unitorâ„¢ Oil Compatibility Tester is an effective solution for verifying the stability and compatibility of all marine fuels, including HFO, VLSFO and Bio-VLSFO. It enables crews to quickly assess whether a fuel is at risk of asphaltene sludge formation, one of the key indicators of instability and incompatibility. Designed for simple and rapid onboard use, the tester provides a practical way to evaluate whether fuels can be safely mixed or blended, particularly when handling residual fuels. By delivering a clear picture of both fuel stability and compatibility, it helps operators make informed decisions, avoid operational issues, and maintain fuel integrity throughout the system.
