A-PMA

Flash point range

The automatic sample heating system allows you to determine the flash point in the ranges from +40C up to +360°C (standardized range), and from ambient temperature to +405°C (technical range).

Built-in automatic fire extinguishing system

An automatic fire extinguishing system is built into the device. The automatically (through thermocouples) or manually controlled fire extinguishing system allows inert gas to be supplied around the test crucible throughout the entire area of possible fire. This is done by using an annular nozzle encasing the test area connected to an external inert gas supply.

Automatic lifting mechanism for the cup cover installation

The special cup cover mechanism with a safe automatic drive moves smoothly for convenient operation. The automatic drive works smoothly and does not pose a threat to human health.

Built-in fan for cooling after test completion

The test crucible can be cooled very fast after analysis due to the design of the device, which increases labor productivity. There are optional accessories that cool the crucible even faster.

Built-in barometric pressure sensor for automatic result adjustment

The device has a built-in atmospheric pressure sensor and allows automatic correction for atmospheric pressure.

Instrument calibration

All required parameters and sensors are calibrated in this device:

• Pt100 temperature sensor calibration

• dynamic, against ASTM certified thermometer (9C or 10C) or alternative, including correction using up to 25 calibration points (user defined)

• calibration of the heater block temperature sensor using an external thermometer

• calibration of the barometric pressure sensor with an external barometer
