Theoil open cup flash point testerunder UHV power can help many power workers conduct various power tests more conveniently.
A flash point testeris an instrument used to determine the flash point of a sample, which is the temperature point at which the sample vaporizes into another combustible component state in air. At that moment, the flash point meter can determine and measure the vapor pressure changes that occur, also known as the minimum flammability limit. Therefore, the steam concentration can be determined by temperature. There are two main types of flash point analyzers: open cup flash point testers and closed cup flash point testers. Open design aims to simulate open and natural environments, while closed design is more commonly used for laboratory testing.
Application of flash point testing
The determination of flash point can be used for various applications, such as determining the flash point of diesel and other fuel types in petrochemical analysis, spices in food testing, paints in material testing, and waste removal in environmental analysis.
Main considerations for purchasing a flash point tester
When purchasing a flash point tester, please pay attention to the type, measurement temperature range for sample analysis, and standard method certification. Other useful variables to keep in mind include minimum sample size, analysis time, and automatic injection function, which allows for more than one analysis to be performed at once.
