Flash and Fire Point on petroleum products, gas oils, fuel oils, lubricants. Suitable for flash and fire point detection on different substances and waste materials, having a flash point over 79°C.
The sample is warmed up according the methods. When the sample reaches the selected test temperature, the flame is passed automatically above the sample. When the flash point is reached, the detection is done by an ionisation detector. For fire point detection, the sample continues to be heated until permanent flame is detected by the second PT100 probe, then the auto extinguisher will be placed on the top of the test cup.
Test cup.
The Flash Point detection system, which is composed by a ring sensor for the ionization’s determination, constitutes the essential component granting high repeatability and excellent results. Furthermore, a sensor detects the presence of the flame for fire point determination. The device are mounted on a mechanical arm with automatic positioning during analysis.
The test flame pilot is equipped with a flame size regulator as well as a position and direction device for a fine adjustment.
The head can also be equipped with a paddle used to move the surface and perform tests on bitumen (LAB-670-12-03).
Gas ignitor / flame applicator made in stainless steel with orifice 0.8 mm diameter, automed duplicator of the sweep movement permit the precise positioning at 1.8 mm above cup rim and 152 mm radius from cup center.
The test cup closing system is totally automatic and grant the maximal security as well as the two electrical ignitors which grant the continuous presence of the test flame.
