ERAFLASH LT Continuously Closed Cup Flash Point Tester 



In stock

The ERAFLASH LT is the ideal instrument for measuring samples with flash points below ambient temperature or even below 0 °C. It is preconfigured for the automatic measurement in full compliance with the latest and safest Continuously Closed Cup Flash Point (CCCFP) standards ASTM D6450 and ASTM D7084 and in excellent correlation with ASTM D93, ASTM D56, ASTM D3828 ISO 2719, ISO 13736, EN ISO 3679 and 3680.

The stacked Peltier design allows measurements according to ASTM D7094 with oven temperatures as low as -40 °C. The innovative CCCFP methods use only 1 mL to 2 mL of sample that is sealed in a closed chamber during the whole measurement process.

To increase sample throughput for low temperature flash point testing the ERAFLASH LT was equipped with stacked Peltier elements. Simple low temperature flash point testing is possible without the need to cool the equipment with dry ice or other substances. This leads to three major improvements for low temperature flash point testing:

  • The cooling speed of the instrument was increased by approximately 35%.
  • Without any external cooling temperatures approximately 35 °C below ambient temperature (for instance -15 °C) are accessible.
  • With external water cooling low temperature flash point testing down to -40 °C oven temperature is possible.
  • Equipped with a coolant valve that automatically shuts the coolant flow off if not needed,eliminating condensation.

Easy Four-Step Measurement Procedure:

  • Enter sample ID and operator name
  • Select the measurement standard and add additional parameters (e.g. expected flash point)
  • Fill the sample cup with sample (1 mL or 2 mL),place the sample cup inside the measurement chamber,and close the door
  • Press the RUN button

Characteristics of the low temperature flash point testing can be seen in the Combustion Graphics on the large touchscreen display.
