SetaFlash Series 3


33200-2 SETAFLASH SERIES 3 ACTIVE COOL
Active Cool is the latest instrument in the Setaflash Series 3 range. It has been designed to rapidly and efficiently carry out Flash / No Flash tests and to determine the flash point of liquids and semi-solids in the 10 to 130°C (50 to 266°F) temperature range.
When used in Ramp mode the temperature of the sample increases at a rate of 2°C/min. An audible prompt to carry out a flash test occurs every 1°C rise up to 100°C (every 2°C rise above 100°C), until a flash is detected, allowing rapid determination of a flash point in accordance with ASTM D7236 and IP 534.
The sample cup is heated / cooled by peltier cells. This gives very accurate and stable sub-ambient test temperatures and the benefit of rapid temperature normalisation between tests.
All functions are accessed via a two button keypad and the Seta Multifunctional And Rotational Test (SMART) control feature. The digital display shows test parameters, instrument status, and the test result. An audible prompt is sounded when an action is required from the operator.
Gas for the test jet/shutter assembly is supplied from an integral gas tank, which is filled using a standard butane (lighter) refill cartridge.
The automatic flash detection system is tuned to ignore halo and other false flash effects, reducing the chance of mis-interpretation of the test result, and enhancing repeatability. Barometric pressure is measured by an internal barometer, and the correction is automatically applied to the test result.
The instrument is lightweight and suitable for mobile use when operated from the optional DC power adaptor.

33250-2 SETAFLASH SERIES 3 ACTIVE COOL (CORROSION RESISTING)
The 33250-2 is similar to the 33200-2 with the addition of a corrosion resisting insert in the sample cup.
Features
Corrosion resisting version of Setaflash 33200-2
Supplied with
2ml syringe, mains lead and instruction manual.


33000-0 SETAFLASH SERIES 3 PLUS CLOSED CUP TESTER
33000-0 Setaflash 3 is an easy to use instrument that can complete a flash/no-flash test in less than two minutes, or determine the flash point of a sample within a temperature range of 0 to 300°C in typically 8 minutes.
All functions are accessed via a two button keypad and the Seta Multifunctional And Rotational Test (SMART) control feature. The digital display shows test parameters, instrument status, and the test result. An audible prompt is sounded when an action is required from the operator. An automatic flash detector reduces the chance of mis-interpretation of the test result by the operator, and enhances repeatability.
The temperature ramp mode allows rapid determination of the flash point of a sample in accordance with ASTM D7236 and IP 534. The cup is heated at a rate of 2°C per minute from the start temperature. An audible prompt to carry out a flash test occurs every 1°C rise up to 100°C, every 2°C rise over 100°C. For safety purposes, if no flash is detected when the temperature reaches 40°C above the start temperature, the flash tester automatically terminates the test. A new higher start temperature would have to be entered and the test started again.
Gas for the test jet/shutter assembly is supplied from an integral gas tank, which is filled using a standard butane (lighter) refill cartridge.
The instrument is lightweight and suitable for mobile use when operated from the optional 12 volt power supply adaptor.
Features
  • Ramp mode for ASTM D7236 & IP 534
  • Flash point test in less than 2 minutes
  • Small sample size - 2 or 4ml
  • Ambient to 300°C temperature range
  • Automatic flash detection
  • Audible and on-screen prompts
  • Portable operation
  • Simple calibration
