Questions for ASTM International: Membership/Technical Committees Alyson Fick afick@astm.org Products/Services, John Gallagher jgallagher@astm.org Precise engine intake air with an XCP® integrated engine air control system


CFR Engines Inc. offers the Engine Air Control System (EACS) for precise management of engine intake air and auxiliary cooling. Users can rely on the factory design and performance of a complete octane test package, when the EACS is paired with a CFR® and like all CFR products, it is made in the USA.


F1/F2 unit and CFR recommended exhaust components. The EACS carries the CE Mark


The EACS easily integrates with existing units to form an overall octane testing system, and leverages XCP Technology to produce the most reliable Octane Number. The Engine Air Control System can be used with any existing engine, including those using a Legacy control panel. However, when the EACS is used on an engine with an XCP panel, the EACS becomes part of the overall system managed by XCP Technology. This integration with XCP allows users to fully manage the EACS from the central HMI of the XCP. It also provides automatic data recording of the EACS performance by the XCP and includes the engine intake air humidity on the final octane test report for improved accountability.


With a nominal design operating range of 60°F – 100°F (16°C – 38°C) and 10-60% relative humidity, the standard production EACS can reliably support operation in nearly all global environments. Additionally, the EACS provides carburetor coolant at a temperature range of 33°F – 50°F (0.6°C – 10°C). Management of engine intake air temperature, precise control of intake air humidity, and proper use of carburetor cooling are all critical to meeting the precision that a documented and defendable Octane Number test requires. Controlling variables and achieving a successful octane test is easier while using an EACS integrated with XCP Technology.

The ionRocket from BioChromato Inc is a temperature-heating device for direct thermal desorption and pyrolysis of samples, prior to ionisation and analysis by mass spectrometry. Direct Analysis in Real Time Mass Spectrometry (DART-MS) is a proven technique that enables rapid analysis of both solid and liquid samples under standard laboratory conditions without sample preparation. However, certain polymers, cosmetic powders and forensic materials are difficult to analyse using DART-MS due to the varying volatility of substituents in these complex samples. Even insoluble samples can be measured using the ionRocket/DART-MS set-up without treatment.


To overcome these challenges, BioChromato developed an innovative sample introduction device (ionRocket), which gradually heats a sample placed directly beneath the DART-MS gas stream. Gradient heating of the sample before ionisation creates time/temperature resolved mass spectra, separating species both by their thermal desorption profiles and mass to charge ratio (m/z).

ionRocket generates a temperature gradient from ambient up to as high as 600ºC in just a few minutes. This allows compounds in your samples to be sublimated, vaporised, or pyrolysed according to their volatility, and then introduced into the DART-MS gas stream. Because the ionRocket offers the option to weigh samples prior to analysis this results in reproducible MS intensity, allowing calibration curves of analyte amount versus peak intensity to be calculated.


Data obtained from ionRocket yields another axis of data (time/temperature) beyond that obtained from normal DART-MS analysis. Species desorb in order of their volatility along the temperature gradient, and therefore are separated in time. The data produced resembles that of an LC-MS or GC-MS chromatogram, consisting of temperature/time, m/z, and intensity. This can separate rare from abundant species, making them easier to detect.
