The Wincom Closed Cup Flash Point Tester is a precision laboratory instrument engineered to determine the lowest temperature at which the vapors of a liquid sample will ignite (flash) when exposed to an ignition source under enclosed conditions. Operating strictly in accordance with international standards like ASTM D93, it is an essential safety testing tool for petroleum products, lubricating oils, fuel oils, solvents, chemicals, and paints.

Technical Specifications

• Temperature Testing Range: Ambient temperature up to 300 degrees Celsius or 400 degrees Celsius (depending on the model)

• Temperature Measurement Resolution: 0.1 degrees Celsius

• Heating Rate: Adjustable to match standard testing specifications (e.g., 1 to 2 degrees or 5 to 6 degrees Celsius per minute)

• Ignition Source: Dual options supported (Gas flame ignition and electronic electric ignition)

• Flash Detection Method: Highly sensitive thermal or optical sensor (for automated models)

• Stirring Speed: Adjustable stirring rate to ensure uniform sample temperature distribution

• Power Supply: AC 220V, 50Hz

Key Features

• Strict Closed Cup Design: Features a sealed sample cup with a precision sliding shutter mechanism that opens briefly only at the exact moment of ignition testing, preventing the premature loss of volatile vapors.

• High-Precision Heating Control: Utilizes an advanced solid-state voltage regulator or microcomputer heater to control the temperature ramp-up rate accurately, guaranteeing reproducible results.

• Flexible Ignition System: Equipped with a versatile system that allows users to toggle between gas flame testing and safe, flame-free electric wire ignition based on laboratory safety protocols.

• Integrated Stirring Mechanism: Built-in adjustable paddle mixer ensures the sample liquid is heated evenly without generating localized hot spots that could skew test data.

• Automated Safety Features: Includes intelligent over-temperature cut-offs, rapid air-cooling paths, and early warning diagnostic alarms to ensure operator safety during high-temperature testing.

Primary Applications

• Petroleum Refineries and Fuel Testing: Measuring the exact flash points of diesel, kerosene, aviation fuels, and blended fuel oils to certify quality and safety standards.

• Lubricants and Automotive Chemicals: Testing heavy lubricating oils, gear oils, hydraulic fluids, and anti-rust coatings.

• Chemical Logistics and Safety Compliance: Classifying dangerous goods, industrial solvents, chemical raw materials, and paints for safe storage, shipping, and packaging regulations.
