Automatic
Cleveland Open Cup Flash Point Tester
The automated
Cleveland Open Cup flash point tester accurately determines flash and fire
point temperatures of viscous petroleum products including oils and bitumens
over an extended temperature range of 79 to 400°C (175 to 752°F). When
examining highly viscous specimens, a preheating time and temperature are set
in order to liquefy the sample for testing. The surface skin from bituminous
samples can be removed with a skimmer. The flash/fire point tests are simply
conducted by mounting the flash cup filled with sample into the test position
and selecting a pre-programmed test method or the search mode to determine an
approximate flash point. The test results are automatically corrected to
standard 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-glass
thermometer. Multiple sensors continually monitor instrument function,
displaying an error message if a problem is detected. The performance of the
ionization sensor which detects the flash and fire points is continuously
monitored, and the user is notified upon the need of replacement. If a flash
is not detected 20°C above the expected flash point or at 420°C, then the
test is automatically aborted for safety.
