K71000 Automatic Pensky Martens Closed Cup Flash Point Tester

The K71000 Automatic Pensky Martens Closed Cup Flash Point Tester can be used for the flash point testing of a wide range of samples such as distillate fuels and biodiesel, new and used lubricating oils, residual fuel oils and cutback residua, mixtures of petroleum liquids with solids and petroleum liquids that can form a surface film during the test.

It can also be used to test for contamination of products.

The K71000 complies with ASTM Procedures A, B and C.

Key Applications

The large touch screen user interface displays all of the operator parameters and results on a single screen, making it easy to view and navigate.
No gas is required (though can be used if required) using flash point detection by Thermocouple and Ionization Ring
A wide temperature range of flash point operation between ambient and 405°C: The scope of the method covers the analysis of products in the temperature range of 40 to 360°C but this automated apparatus extends the range from dew point + 10°C to 400°C.
An integrated dual fan which directly cools both the test cup and surrounding environment allowing faster sample cooling
Automatically corrects for barometric pressure
Inbuilt fire suppression system (requires inert gas) in the event of a fire
Multiple calibration methods
3 position automatic lift system
The in-built PC allows over 65,000 data results to be stored on the local hard drive
Unlimited number of user programs, including a quick test, that safely tests from ambient, puts the flash point result into the official run, and prompts user to refresh the sample
