PMA 4 S - Automatic Flash-Point Tester

PMA 4 Sampler

Pensky-Martens Method with Sample Changer

Pensky-Martens Method:
ASTM D 93-A&B - JIS K2265-3 - FTM 791-1102 - FTM 141-4293 -
AASHTO T73-A&B - AASHTO T172-A&B - (EN 22719) -
IP 34-A&B (BS 2839) - ISO 2719-A&B (DIN 51 758, NF M07-019)

Biodiesel Method: ASTM D 93 C - ASTM D 6751

Limit Test (eatable oils &fats): ISO 15 267 - BS 684-1.17

Consisting of:
PMA 4 in a high-grade stainless steel housing with two-color powder coating, touch-key panel and large LC-display, swivel-mounted multi-function-head - ONE-TWIST, two RS232-interfaces for data printer and computer connection, different test-programs, data-transfer and software upgrading through bi-directional interface, automatic barometric pressure correction, automatic overheat protection, power controlled/monitored electric igniter, gas igniter with auto-relighting and safety shut-off, re-cooling fan

Sample Changer with 12-place carrousel, transfer arm with housing and positioning devices.

PC-Software "FPPnet" (Windows®):
A control & analysis program for easy handling, data storage and program transfer. Providing online display of sample & heater block temperature, gradient (also in an XY-diagram) and test status.
Easy to read tableau indicating: sample no., sample name, °C/°F, expected flash point, program, status, found flash point, corrected flash point, corrected rounded flash point. Test results are stored together with all program and device parameters in one file.
The simultaneous connection of different petrotest® flash point devices is possible. To simplify the device management they can be named individually.
With the sample changer the software is able to use the result of the previous test as the estimated flashpoint for the next test automatically (important for unknown samples). With the included "Quick Run” option, the re-cooling time is optimized in relation to the next consecutive sample. Rationalization of up to 50% becomes possible. The full compliance with standards is ensured.

Supplied with:
1 gas igniter
1 electric igniter
1 tong for cup
1 stirrer coupling
1 PC-software "FPPnet" (incl. "QuickRun")

The carrousel is made out of a two-layer metal block with an internal heat exchanger coil to stabilize the temperature to a level deviating from the ambient temperature. An acrylic-glass cover is designed to reduce the loss of cooling energy.

Note: A coolant circulator is required as a source of cooling energy to keep the temperature in the samples at approx. +4°C (ambient not exceeding +24°C). We recommend to order circulator 25-0240.

Temperature Range: approx. +4°C to +360°C
