Anton Paar Pensky-Martens Flash Point ...
Anton Paar - Pensky-Martens Flash Point Tester PMA 300/500
The PMA 500 and PMA 300 Pensky-Martens flash point testers (closed-cup) bring you automatic high-precision flash point testing in the petroleum and chemical industries, and for test laboratories, according to ASTM D93, EN ISO 2719, and IP 34.
The PMA 500 and PMA 300 Pensky-Martens flash point testers (closed-cup) bring you automatic high-precision flash point testing in the petroleum and chemical industries, and for test laboratories, according to ASTM D93, EN ISO 2719, and IP 34. Post-measurement, PMA 500 cools 20 % faster than comparable competitor instruments, maximizing sample throughput. Automated measurements, excellent heating control, and unmatched ease of use underpin accuracy. And, of course, all at maximum safety levels.
Key features

The highest sample throughput on the market
- PMA 500’s high-power cooling performance gets you ready for the next test 20 % faster than any other instrument on the market
- The Pensky-Martens flash point tester’s award-winning encapsulated electric igniter design has a 10x longer lifetime than comparable competitor igniters, lowering operational costs and guaranteeing close-to-zero maintenance effort
- Guided calibration and adjustment procedures for reliable flash point test results and excellent reproducibility and repeatability
- Wide range of additional accessories available for the entire flash point tester series

The most powerful Pensky-Martens flash point tester
- Fast and straightforward handling: Flash point testing easier than ever before
- Guided processes for optimal flash point testing workflows in your lab
- Avoidance of time-consuming operator training and costly human errors
- Customizable user interface delivering all relevant data in real time
- Preferred menu items and frequently used methods directly accessible and customizable from the main screen
- Optimal heating control, top precision, ensuring adherence to standards

Maximum-safety Pensky-Martens flash point tester
- Fire triggers built-in fire extinguisher; instrument terminates all measurements
- Fail-safe, two-sensor system for in-measurement instrument monitoring
- Indication of block and sample temperature, so you know when to continue safely at all times

High-performance hardware
- Automatic motor-driven multi-function head: secure and smooth connection of sensors and actuators
- Gas igniter kit option for PMA 500
- Unrivaled cooling performance of PMA 500: Faster measurement sequencing than with any competitor instrument
- Advanced automation: Test cup lid can be automatically moved up and down (and removed and disassembled for cleaning in seconds)
- Standalone Pensky-Martens flash point tester fits into even the smallest lab

Full compliance with international standards
- Pensky-Martens flash point tester fully compliant with ASTM D93, ISO 2719, IP 34, and more
