Fully Automatic Flash & Fire point Apparatus:
Determination of the Flash- and Fire-Point with Open Cup - Cleveland Method (automatic)
AS PER IS 1209: 1978

This flash point and fire-point test method is a dynamic method and depends on definite rates of temperature increases to control the precision of the method.

Its primary use is for viscous materials having a flash point between 79 except fuel oils, to define the hazards of flammable and combustible materials used in shipping and safety regulations.

The temperature of the approximately 70 ml test specimen is increased rapidly at first and then at a slower constant rate as the flash point is approached. At specified intervals a test flame is passed across the cup, to measure the tendency of the test specimen to form a flammable mixture with air under controlled laboratory conditions.

The flash point is the lowest liquid temperature at which application of the flame causes the vapors of the test specimen of the sample to ignite.

To determine the fire-point, the test is continued until the application of the test flame causes the test specimen to ignite and sustain burning for a minimum of 5s.

It is an automatic flash and fire-point tester used to examine liquid as well as highly viscous samples in the same instrument without any additional equipment.

For substances with unknown flash points, the APPARATUS has a special search mode program. During the entire heating period, the test flame is moved across the sample at suitable intervals. The expected flash point of a specimen can thereby be found in a time saving and economical manner.

Optional On demand:

When examining highly viscous specimens, a preheating time and temperature are set in order to warm-up and liquefy the sample to inserted temperature probe without problem. Further a skimmer is removing the surface skin from bituminous samples.

FAQs of Flash & Fire Point Apparatus:

Q: How is the Flash & Fire Point Apparatus operated during tests?

A: Operation involves placing a specimen in the chrome-plated cup and using the manual stirrer and electric heater to gradually raise the temperature. The gas jet and flame applicator are utilized to detect flash or fire points, following the standardized Cleveland Open Cup method.

Q: What substances can be tested using this apparatus?

A: This equipment is specifically designed for laboratory testing of petroleum products and other flammable liquids, according to IS 1448 (P:69) and ASTM D92 protocols within a temperature range from room temperature up to 350C.

Q: When should I use the overtemperature protection feature?

A: Overtemperature protection is automatically active, safeguarding both operator and specimen by preventing excessive temperature rise, thus ensuring lab safety during the testing process.

Q: Where can this apparatus be installed for optimal use?

A: The device is intended for laboratory use and is easily placed on a sturdy tabletop. Its compact design and standard power requirements (230 V AC, 50 Hz) allow convenient installation in most laboratory settings.

Q: What is the benefit of using a manual operation interface?

A: Manual control grants users immediate oversight throughout the flash and fire point testing process, resulting in high precision and compliance with standardized test methods. This also reduces potential software or calibration errors.

Q: How accurate are the flash and fire point readings?

A: Readings are exceptionally precise, with a measurement accuracy of 1C and a resolution of 0.1C, ensuring dependable results for research, quality assurance, or industrial applications.
