The Setaflash Series 8 is an automated closed cup flash point tester with a temperature range of ambient +5 to 300°C (ambient +9 to 572°F). The instrument uses an electric hot wire ignitor (gas flame option).
There are two modes of flash point operation; Flash/No Flash and Ramp. The ramp mode increases the sample temperature at a rate of 2°C/min, allowing determination of a flash point in accordance with ASTM D7236 and IP 534. The dipping sequence occurs automatically every 1°C up to 100°C (every 2°C rise above 100°C), until either a flash is detected or the end of test temperature is reached. The ignitor uses a new electrical hotwire (a gas flame option is available).
