ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

All functions on the Series 3 flash point tester are accessed via a two button keypad and the Seta Multifunctional And Rotational Test (SMART) control feature. The digital display shows test parameters, instrument status, and the test result. An audible prompt is sounded when an action is required from the operator. An automatic flash detector reduces the chance of misinterpretation of the test result by the operator, and enhances repeatability.

Gas for the test jet/shutter assembly is supplied from an integral gas tank, which is filled using a standard butane (lighter) refill cartridge. The instrument is lightweight and suitable for mobile use when operated from the optional 12 volt power supply adaptor.

The temperature ramp mode allows rapid determination of the flash point of a sample. The cup is heated at a rate of 2°C per minute from the start temperature. An audible prompt to carry out a flash test occurs every 1°C rise up to 100°C, every 2°C rise over 100°C. If no flash is detected when the temperature reaches 40°C above the start temperature, the flash tester automatically terminates the test.

Supplied with: 2ml syringe, ignitor, mains lead, and instruction manual.
