FLASH AND FIRE POINT APPARATUS – ASTM D 92 / IP 36

Model Code: SEWCF01

This test method describes the determination of the flash point of petroleum products. A brass test cup of specified dimension, filled to the inside mark with test sample is heated at specified rates, by defined procedures. An ignition source is directed into the test cup at regular intervals until a flash is detected. The operating range of this device is from ambient to 350oC.
