Anton Paar recently launched their new range of Abel and TAG flash point testers, ABA 500, ABA 300, TAG 500, and TAG 300, that are ideally suited for petroleum-related and petrochemical samples. The new instruments are compliant with a plethora of standard methods, including  ISO 13736, IP 170, ASTM D56, ISO 1516, and ISO 1523.

These new flash point testers include Anton Paar’s highly advanced ceramic-coated electric igniter, which has a lifespan of more than ten times longer than other, comparable products. The ABA 500’s and TAG 500’s unique, 2-in-1 cooling technology combines a liquid and air-cooled system in a single instrument, allowing the flash point measuring range to span from -30 °C to +130 °C. Operators simply need to connect an external cooler if measuring flash point temperatures from -30 °C to +65 °C and disconnect it when they measure flash points ranging from 10 °C to 130 °C.

The ABA 300 and TAG 300 provides economical solutions ideal for taking flash point measurements between 10 °C to 110 °C. Thanks to an intuitive user interface, simple cleaning, and superb safety features, Anton Paar’s new flash point testers provide labs testing petroleum and petrochemical samples with a invaluable tool. Operators will appreciate other excellent features including a status light, quality control charts, and impurity matrix. Anton Paar’s new state-of-the-art instruments also support LIMS and can be used with Anton Paar’s lab execution software: AP Connect.
