The Petrotest (Anton Paar) automatic TAG 4 closed-cup tester measures the flash point, the lowest temperature at which the vapors of a sample ignite upon the application of an ignition source. The tester can also be used to detect the ability of a sample to yield flammable vapors when maintained at an equilibrium temperature by the flash/no flash method. TAG 4 is suitable for flash point applications of jet fuels, solvents, chemicals, etc. (ASTM D56).

The cooling system with Peltier elements is an economical air-cooled model. The two ignition systems in each unit give you the flexibility to work with an electric or gas igniter: if the gas ignition is used, the electric igniter will automatically relight the gas flame during the test, if necessary.

The One-Twist swivel-around multi-function head guarantees the safe and easy one-hand connection of all sensors and actuators such as the shutter release, igniter and detector contacts. An extended measuring range up to 110 °C enables you to go beyond the conventional scope of the method.
