Product   

 Auto-Ignition Temperature - ZPA 3 (automatic / semi-automatic)


Main Unit   

12-1822

 

ZPA 3 - Automatic Auto-Ignition Tester

with Heated Sample-Feeder

Liquids: EN 14 522 - CEI 79-4 - NF T20-037 (DIN 51 794 requires alternative firmware)

with further accessories for:
Solids: NF T20-036 - 79/831/EWG

Consisting of:

Furnace with safety cage:
adjustable up to +650 °C, with holder for temperature probe, indicator and sample syringe

Metal insert:
stainless steel with an additional fixture for temperature probe

Test insert:
complete with two-part (non-asbestos) insulation ring, ignition flask (200 ml) and thermocouple

Calibration block:
for automatic thermocouple testing, adjustment and calibration

Control unit:
with a three-step program for pre-tests, main tests and automatic calibration of thermocouples. Connections for compressed air (valve controlled air purge) and recorder to register temperature curves. Permanent display of furnace and sample temperatures as well as information about test run, heating and program sequence.

Automatic Sample feeding device:
with drop counting controlled by photocells, equipped with a peristaltic pump (VlTON®-sampling hose). Further equipped with a heating device (required by samples of solid consistence at ambient temperatures) to heat up the sample by an air chamber. Due to special designed pump and tubing, the temperature will remain unchanged all the way up into the drip-tip of the feeder arm. Adjustable temperature range between ambient and +95 °C.

Printer:
documentation of each completed ignition attempt with sample no., program segment, pre-selected temperature, sample volume, ignition delay, flash intensity, code and program time lapse.
For sample temperature curves the printer can be replaced by a single-line recorder (not included).

Supplied with:
1 ignition flask
1 cover for test insert
3 insulation ring for cover
1 ignition point indicator
1 temperature probe Pt-100
1 thermocouple for test flask

Note: Alternative firmware for DIN 51794 upon request.
A solid heating program is included but the required accessories are on separate order.
