AUTOMATED CLEVELAND OPEN CUP FLASH & 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.)
