MINIFLASH
is a uniquely designed flash point series of
instruments for the automatic determination of the
flash point of liquids and solid samples according
to ASTM D6450 and the advanced ASTM D7094 standard.
This procedure describes the “Standard Test Method
for Flash Point by Modified Continuously Closed Cup
(MCCCFP)”, which offers the highest repeatability
and reproducibility and an excellent correlation to
the D93 Pensky-Martens method: "There is no
statistically significant bias observed between ASTM
D7094 and ASTM D93 Procedure A” as concluded during
the last Round Robin. ASTM D7094 has been approved
by the ASTM committee for the Diesel Fuel and
Kerosene specifications ASTM D975, D396, D2880 and
D3699.

Furthermore, test results are equivalent to
other well known standards such as Abel and TAG,
and thanks to its unique design, MINIFLASH can
be used for more difficult applications such as
flash-point testing of contaminated samples like
diesel fuel in lube oil or gasoline in diesel
fuel and for biodiesel testing.
Its continuously closed cup design and small
sample volume of only 1-2 mL offers maximum
safety, avoids offensive fumes in the testing
area and reduces sample waste. The fast
thermoelectric cooling at the end of a test and
the fast and easy handling of the instrument,
save expensive labor time.
Due to the true portability and rugged housing,
the MINIFLASH is also the perfect solution for
mobile labs and military applications.
The New Technology
The MINIFLASH series of instruments is using the
Grabner flash detection method of measuring the
instantaneous pressure increase inside the
continuously closed chamber due to a high energy
electric arc. The fast thermoelectric cooling
after each test prepares the instrument for the
next test in a very short time. Heating the test
chamber from the top avoids condensation of high
volatile compounds, significantly improving the
test results
