Flash Point Testing For Hazardous Substances

NOW AUTOMATIC & SAFE!

Dangerous chemicals are susceptible to fire or explosions, exact flash points are key in preventing hazardous situations. Legally, flashpoint requirements must be established.

The Grabner MiniFlash is a newly developed flash point tester that is continuously closed cup and requires only 1mL of sample! It is the first tester that doesn’t test with an open flame. This allows for the instrument to be operated safely and without supervision.

Flash Point testing within the MiniFlash has been developed according to ASTM D6450, which gives results equivalent to ASTM D56, D93 or ISO 2719. The D6450 method is used worldwide for the determination of flash points of gasoline, diesel, bio-diesel, used oil, food, fragrances and many other substances. Temperature ranges from: -25° to 400°C (-13° to 750°F).
