In the ever-evolving realm of motor fuel assessment and certification, the CFR® F1/F2 Octane Rating Unit reigns supreme. Since its inception in 1929, the CFR has consistently led the way in fuel testing, adapting alongside the automotive and petroleum industries to empower fuel producers and engine manufacturers worldwide.
Setting the Standard: CFR F1/F2 Octane Rating Engines
The CFR F1/F2 octane rating engines serve as the gold standard for testing fuels according to various international benchmarks. These include ASTM D2699 for Research Octane Number and ASTM D2700 for Motor Octane Number, demonstrating CFR’s commitment to establishing and upholding global standards in fuel testing.
Confidence in a Fully Integrated Fuel Testing System
A complete CFR Engines Inc. octane fuel testing system comprises four main components intricately designed to seamlessly integrate and deliver reliable results. The Engine Air Control System, the F1/F2 octane rating engine, XCP™ Technology, and a CFR® exhaust surge tank collaboratively controls every critical parameter of a successful octane test. Whether opting for a complete unit, an upgrade/conversion kit, or a genuine CFR service part, users can trust that the product is meticulously crafted, manufactured, and rigorously tested by CFR to function as an integrated solution for their operations.
With trust in the CFR octane rating system, users can focus less on system mechanics and more on the bigger picture.
Data Integrity with XCP Technology
The XCP Digital Control Panel elevates data integrity to new heights, automatically capturing crucial information for each rating and presenting it in a user-friendly Excel-based report. This reduces the risk of manual recording errors. The standard XCP report includes KI values, Octane Numbers, environmental data, and KI vs. fuel level curves. Moreover, the XCP seamlessly integrates into a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS), ensuring test data is captured and processed without question.
Reliability of Proven Design
With a legacy stretching back to 1929, CFR Engines Inc. products have been the epitome of reliability for thousands of users. This trustworthiness endures thanks to a continuous stream of well-designed system upgrades and product enhancements. Components such as the robust engine crankcase and cylinder/head are engineered for unparalleled operating life. With routine maintenance, CFR octane rating engines more than meet the rigorous demands of today’s fuel testing environment, delivering a true engine-based Octane Number.
Precision through Modern Instrument Control
Equipped with XCP Technology, the CFR F1/F2 Octane Rating Unit employs digital instrumentation to record and process critical aspects of system operation and performance. Features like on-board barometric pressure adjustments, increased automation, a broad octane meter range, and precise control of engine intake air enhance overall precision, making measurements more accurate and dependable.
Cost Savings with One System Flexibility
A CFR F1/F2 Octane Rating System offers unparalleled flexibility and cost savings. With simple component changes and push-button control, users can effortlessly switch between any of the four test procedures outlined in ASTM Methods D2699 or D2700. This versatility translates into resource optimization, faster test transitions, reduced operator training, and enhanced repeatability – all from a single system.
