MINIFLASH TOUCH is a uniquely designed flash
point tester for the determination of flashpoints of
liquids and solids, using the Grabner flash point
detection method of measuring the instantaneous
pressure increase inside the continuously closed
chamber, triggered by an energy-controlled electric
arc. Heating the test chamber from the top avoids
condensation of high volatile compounds,
significantly improving the test results. |
Its continuously closed cup design and small sample volume of only 1-2 mL
offers maximum safety, avoids offensive fumes in the testing area and
reduces sample waste. The fast thermoelectric cooling at the end of a
test and the fast and easy handling of the instrument save expensive
labor time.
The full color touch-screen of the MINIFLASH TOUCH runs on Microsoft®
Windows® software and features an intuitive menu navigation that
requires no training for flashpoint testing. Along with its convenient
touch screen design, the MINIFLASH TOUCH offers an extended temperature
range from 0 to 400°C, hassle-free communication with USB, Ethernet,
LIMS and PCs and nearly unlimited storage capacity for programs and
results.
MINIFLASH determines the flash point according to ASTM D6450 and
according to the advanced ASTM D7094 standard. This procedure describes
the “Standard Test Method for Flash Point by Modified Continuously
Closed Cup (MCCCFP)”, which offers the highest repeatability and
reproducibility and an excellent correlation to the D93 Pensky-Martens
method: "there is no statistically significant bias observed between
ASTM D7094 and ASTM D93 Procedure A” as concluded during the last Round
Robin. ASTM D7094 has been approved by the ASTM committee for the Diesel
Fuel and Kerosene specifications ASTM D975, D396, D2880 and D3699.
Furthermore, test results are equivalent to other well known standards
such as Abel and TAG, and thanks to its unique design MINIFLASH can be
used for more difficult applications such as flash-point testing of
contaminated samples like diesel fuel in lube oil or gasoline in diesel
fuel and for biodiesel testing. The new MINIFLASH TOUCH analyzer also
includes improved methods for simulation of EN ISO 3679 and EN ISO 3680.
Due to true portability and rugged housing, the MINIFLASH TOUCH is also
the perfect solution for mobile labs and military applications. |
