PMA 4 S - Automatic Flash-Point Tester

Pensky-Martens Method with Sample Changer

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

Biodiesel Method: 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 "PMANet” (Windows® compatible):
for easy handling, storing of data, as well as program transfer from PC to PMA 4. Easy to read tableau. Permanent indication of test status. Results can be stored in the memory and transferred into Excel etc. Numerous programs can easily be set (e.g. Bitumen-program), copied from the memory and modified. Due to the most comfortable ability of this software to display and modify actual and future test sequences, it is most recommendable for samples of permanently changing characteristics. Graphical display of sample & block temperature, as well as temperature gradient.

When using the auto-sampler the software is also able to use the result of the previous test as the estimated flashpoint for the next test automatically. Important for unknown samples.
Including the module "Quick Run", especially useful in connection with the sample changer. The re-cooling time is optimized in relation to the next consecutive sample. Rationalization of up to 50% becomes possible. Full compliance with standards is ensured.

1 gas igniter
1 electric igniter
1 tong for cup
1 stirrer coupling

PMA 4 SC - Automatic Flash-Point Tester

Pensky-Martens Method with Chilled Sampler Set

Like 12-2770 but:

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.

A mechanically refrigerated coolant circulator is used as a source of cooling energy to keep the temperature in the samples at approx. +4°C (ambient not exceeding +24°C). Connecting tubes are insulated.

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

Power supply: 115/230 V, 50/60 Hz, EU-plug
