Key Features
Intelligent Thermal Regulation
Equipped with an advanced microprocessor implementing precise PID control algorithms. The system automatically regulates the heating ramp from 14-17°C/min down to 5.5°C/min as the expected flash point approaches, ensuring 100% compliance with ASTM D92 test protocols.
Automated Scanning & Ignition
The motorized test arm handles the entire sequence of scanning, ignition, and flash point detection. High-speed ion sensors monitor the sample surface with millisecond resolution, capturing the exact flash point with superior repeatability compared to manual observation.
Advanced Safety & Data Management
Features a built-in fire suppression system that automatically deploys a pneumatic cover if a flash occurs. The Windows CE-based digital platform includes auto-diagnostic functions, atmospheric pressure compensation, and a database for traceability of 120+ test sessions.
