PM-93 is the new solution for automatic Pensky- Martens flash point determinations, providing the ultimate level of fast, accurate and safe analysis.

Designed to provide operators with a high level of functionality combined with a class leading ease of use, robustness and safety.

Flash points can be determined up to 400°C using standard mode, where the flash point is known, or search mode.

Fully compliant with international standard test methods and supplied pre-programmed with ASTM D93 test protocols for procedures A, B and C.

All routine functions are accessed by an intuitive menu system on a super-size industrial 8.4” colour touch screen. Test progress is clearly displayed, with large format characters for long range viewing.

“Safeflash” fire extinguisher system is available as a factory option for the latest ISO 2719 annex b requirements. An integrated and sealed CO cylinder punctures automatically and discharges over the sample cup and lid, eliminating the need for external gas lines.

PM-93 Statistical Quality Control (SQC) software provides detailed analysis of test results, calculated mean, standard deviation, standard error, repeatability and plot of results in accordance with ASTM D6299 Statistical Standard.

Operator Safety

• A unique ‘SafeFlash’ system automatically and immediately activates an extinguisher in the event of excess flame or fire around the test cup

• If discharged, user is prompted to re-activate the extinguisher by replacing the integral CO canister

• Additional safety features include PRT checks, safety dip before starting, over-temperature cut-out, gas flame relight, gas shut off and emergency stop

• Complies with ISO 2719 annex b

Precision and Accuracy

• Automatic flash point testing ensures test repeatability

• Unique alignment design ensures lid and cup locate perfectly every time

• Password protected ‘calibration’ mode allows verification of instrument performance

• SQC software to maintain instrument accuracy and enable product quality monitoring

Enhanced Test Throughput

• Unique test profiles enable the test to be set up and repeated quickly without re-entering the same information

• Once a test profile is stored to memory, a user can select this option without the need to program test parameters

• The lid module can be cleaned in-situ to minimise down time between tests

• Fast warm up and high capacity air cooling minimises cycle time

Ease Of Use

• Single raising or lowering action when loading or removing test cup

• Simple 3 step test operation - load, lower and go

• Intuitive user menu with colour touch screen operation

• Real time display of test progress

• Large capacity memory allows storage of test profiles, operator names, test methods and results

• Test status and results are graphically displayed

• Data format is compatible with most PC spreadsheets and a USB port allows results to be saved to portable memory devices

• QR code data transfer
