Pensky Martens Closed Cup Flash Tester for Oil Fuel and Petroleum Testing Instruments

The Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Flash Point Tester determines the flash point of fuels, lubricating oils, liquids containing suspended solids, and liquids that tend to form a surface film during testing. It uses a closed-cup method with two selectable sample stirring speeds and is widely used for shipping and safety compliance, detecting contamination by volatile and flammable materials in fuel and lubricating oils, and characterizing hazardous waste samples. The instrument features a smooth-operating cover mechanism that opens the shutter and applies the test flame by turning a knob. The cover includes a pilot flame, test-flame reference bead, built-in stirrer, and plated brass thermometer ferrule. Available with electric or gas heating, the instrument is mounted on a sturdy cast iron base. Manufactured by Atico Export with a focus on precision, durability, and reliable performance for petroleum flash point testing applications.
