Based on 45 years of experience in manufacturing automated flash point testers, innovative 8th generation series has been released.
The theme of the 8th generation is “Ergonomic, Versatile and Premium”
Further improved Swing Arm assembly for easy setting and cleaning:
After inserting the test cup in the instrument, just lower the swing arm assembly onto the test cup to set all the necessary components for the test, including the ignition source, temperature sensor, flash detector and stirrer (in case of abl-8 and apm-8). After the test, tilt the arm to the complete upright position for easy cleaning.
Model apm-8 is an automated Pensky-Martens Closed Cup flash point tester.
Three test procedures are built in for varied samples: Procedure-A for homogeneous petroleum liquids such as distillate fuels, Procedure-B for residual fuel oils and some other nonhomogeneous liquids, and Procedure-C for biodiesel.
apm-8fc fire containment system
apm-8fc is equipped with a fire containment system for enhanced safety.
External inert gas (CO2 or N2) rapidly flows and contains fire in case of excessive flame spread around the test cup.
