Description
The automated Cleveland Open Cup flash point tester accurately determinesflash and fire point temperatures of viscous petroleum products including oilsand bitumens over an extended temperature range. When examining highlyviscous specimens, a preheating time and temperature are set in order toliquefy the sample for testing. The surface skin from bituminous samples canbe removed with a skimmer. The flash/fire point tests are simply conducted bymounting the flash cup filled with sample into the test position and selectinga pre-programmed test method or the search mode to determine anapproximate flash point. The test results are automatically corrected tostandard pressure (101.3 kPa). Equipped with a differential Pt-100 RTD probe,the system is designed to duplicate the response time of a mercury-in-glassthermometer. Multiple sensors continually monitor instrument function,displaying an error message if a problem is detected. The performance of theionization sensor which detects the flash and fire points is continuouslymonitored, and the user is notified upon the need of replacement. If a flash isnot detected 20°C above the expected flash point or at 420°C, then the testis automatically aborted for safety. The system is easily interfaced with anexternal PC for operation and method updates. When performing a test, thesystem will display the stirring speed, temperature curve (also printed out),and current test status. The system alerts the user if the first application of theignitor results in a flash or if no flash point is detected at the end of the testprogram. If a flash is not detected 30°C above the expected flash point or at400°C, then the test is automatically aborted for safety.
