I.Safety Instructions

1.Be sure to use a grounded outlet for the instrument’s power supply.

2.No touching the Oil Cups and its nearby parts during test, in case of scald.

3.There must be someone on duty during the test. Cover oil cup lid in time if the sample is burning after the test is completed.

4.No touch the oil lid because of high heat.

5.Do not touch the ignition rod by hands; otherwise it will cause permanent damage to the instrument!

II.Function Overview

 Flash Point is the lowest temperature at which a liquid can form an ignitable mixture in air near the surface of the liquid. The lower the flash point, the easier it is to ignite the material. Nowadays, Flash point is used to say non-volatile or flammable substances whether exit highly volatile or flammable substances, and has been one of the most important parameters for petroleum products transportation, storage, operations, safety management. 

HZKS-3 Automatic open flash point tester is designed and made as per the National Standard of People’s Republic of China GB/T267- 88; GB/T 3536-2008; European standard;ASTM-D92, it is an advanced analytical instrument, mainly used to determine the open flash point of petroleum products.

III.Instrument Features

HZKS-3, with touch screen to replace the keyboard operation, is used to measure the open flash point value of petroleum products. Using advanced technology abroad, LCD screen full English display man-machine dialogue interface, full screen touch keys, convenient and fast, open beam, fuzzy control integrated software, modular structure.

1.Standard modular design, one main engine can control the number of open or closed test furnaces, be freely exchanged between the test furnace, According to user needs, greatly improving the efficiency and economic benefits.

2.High-speed signal processor controlled, high-precision analog / digital converter circuit, the instrument is reliable and high precision.

3.Auto-ignition.

4.Automatic measurement of atmospheric pressure and automatic correction.

5.Adaptive PID control algorithm to automatically adjust the temperature according to standard curve.

6.The whole experiment process is completed automatically, including detection, opening the cover, ignition, alarm, cooling and printing.

7.Automatically stop detection and alarm when the temperature is out of range.

8.Thermal micro-printer, making printing more efficient and more beautiful, with off-line printing.

9.History records with time stamp, up to 256.

10.Large screen with 320x240 graphical LCD display, showing a rich, full character display.

11.touch screen operation, friendly interface; The screen saver function, extend the life of the LCD.

12.Interface, RS232 interface for printer or downloads on PC.
