Automated Cleveland Open Cup Flash Point & Fire Point Analyzer AZA1276

The AutoFlash1276 (Model: AZA1276) from AZA Lab is a fully automated, microcontroller-based Cleveland Open Cup (COC) Flash and Fire Point Analyzer designed for high-temperature petroleum testing applications. Engineered for accuracy, safety, and regulatory compliance, the AZA1276 delivers reliable flash and fire point determination for materials with flash points above 79 °C up to 400 °C.

Complying with ASTM D92, ISO 2592, IS 1448 (Part 69), and IP 36, this advanced analyzer is ideal for laboratories and industrial environments where repeatability, operator safety, and international acceptance are critical.

Description

Precision Flash & Fire Point Determination

Unlike flash-only instruments, the AZA1276 precisely determines both:

  • Flash Point – the lowest temperature at which vapors ignite momentarily

  • Fire Point – the temperature at which combustion is sustained for ≥ 5 seconds

This dual-capability makes the AutoFlash-1276 an essential tool for hazard classification, safety compliance, and product characterization of viscous petroleum materials.


Fully Automated & Standalone Operation

The AZA1276 is a standalone analyzer with an embedded control system, eliminating the need for external computers. Its intuitive LCD / touchscreen interface allows operators to:

  • Select standardized test methods

  • Enter expected flash point values

  • Start automated test cycles with minimal intervention

The system automatically controls heating rate, ignition timing, flame detection, and fire sustain logic, ensuring consistent and reproducible results while reducing operator dependency.


Designed for Viscous Petroleum Products

The Cleveland Open Cup method is particularly suited for high-flash, viscous substances, and the AZA1276 performs exceptionally well with:

  • Lubricating oils and base oils

  • Transformer and insulating oils

  • Bitumen and asphalt materials

  • Greases and waxes

  • Biodiesel and bio-based oils

(Note: Not intended for fuel oils.)


Advanced Safety & Control Features

Safety is integral to the design of the AZA1276. The analyzer includes:

  • Automatic ignition control (electric or gas, interchangeable)

  • Photoelectric flame detection sensor

  • Auto flame suppression and shutdown logic

  • Over-temperature protection and flame shield enclosure

  • Automatic barometric pressure compensation for accurate results

These features make the system suitable for unattended or extended testing cycles in busy laboratory environments.


Applications

  • Flash & fire point testing of viscous petroleum products

  • Quality control in refineries and petrochemical plants

  • Bitumen and asphalt testing laboratories

  • Biodiesel and lubricant compliance testing

  • Hazardous material classification (UN / DOT / GHS)

  • Research & development and academic laboratories
