PAC is pleased to announce the release of its next generation flash point instrument, the Herzog OptiFlash Pensky-Martens. PAC has over 50 years of experience in developing automatic flash point analysers for petroleum products, biodiesels, solvents, fluxed bitumen, food, and beverages. This newest edition is enhanced by being simpler to use, easier to clean, and safer to operate. The OptiFlash detects the flash point up to 400°C and complies to leading global standards, such as ASTM D93, ISO 2719, EN ISO 2719, IP 34, JIS K2265, and GB/T 261.            

With the OptiFlash’s robust design and intuitive user interface, it provides numerous benefits to users, including:

  • Significantly Improved Ease of Operation
    • Automated operation enables the start of a test with three simple steps.
    • Automatic lift arm for hands-free cup cover installation – no need to install the cup cover with the sensors and shutter drive.
  • Easy Cleaning
    • Disassembling of the cup cover without any tools for in-depth cleaning.
    • A procedure to clean highly viscous samples, such as bitumen.
  • High Safety Standards
    • Built-in fire extinguisher with an ultra fast optical fire detector which can identify a fire in the complete area around the test cup.
    • Detect even abnormal samples which can form flames outside of the test cup.
