The major uses of flash point testing are:
* Assessing safety hazards of liquids and semi-solids, including their flammability
* Classifying these materials according to these results. In assessing the risk of flammability, flash point analysis is an effective and efficient method. Essentially, the lower a substance's flash point temperature, the higher its risk of flammability. By classifying materials according to this risk, this enables their correct and safe use and storage.
Another important use of flash point testing for contamination is in oil analysis. If diesel or petrol fuel contaminates engine oil, it can act as a thinner, causing the oil's viscosity to drop dramatically. This viscosity is a key property of engine oil, as it helps protect engine parts against abnormal wear and failure. A flash point test will indicate the presence of diesel or petrol fuel in engine oil. Used with a viscosity test(by VS-9613 Viscometer Series), it can pinpoint whether oil thinning is due to degradation or contamination.
Weshine invented the Pensky Martens Flash Point Tester (VS-9806) provides accurate and secure flash point testing to determine volatility and flammability of fuels, lubricating oils and other petroleum products.
The VS-9806 is an automatic system capable of conducting the Pensky-Martens closed cup flash point testing. It comes with an integrated touchscreen interface that makes the system very easy to use.
