Purpose
The instrument is designed and made as per the National Standard GB/T261 “Test Methods for Flash Point of Petroleum Products (Closed Cup Methods)”. It is used to determine the lowest temperature of a petroleum product sample when the mixture of sample vapor and air around the sample contacts and flashes when heated in a closed cup under stipulated conditions. The lowest temperature is the flash point of the sample.

Adopt microprocessor techniques and equipped with advanced software, it can control temperature, stir sample, ignite, detect, and print out test data automatically. It has a six digits display.
