MINIFLASH FP Vision continuously closed cup design and small sample volume of only 1-2 ml offer maximum safety. No offensive fumes are released in the testing area and little to no sample waste is registered when performing a flash point test. The fast thermoelectric cooling at the end of each flash point test plus the easy handling of the instrument also save expensive labor time.
MINIFLASH FP Vision is part of the Vision analyzer line. Vision analyzers support remote access to test results via the COCKPIT Software and are equipped with a full-color touchscreen. The touchscreen of the MINIFLASH Vision features an easy-to-use graphical interface and do away with the need for training. Any technician is capable of running a flash point test with MINIFLASH FP Vision! As other analyzers of the Vision product line, MINIFLASH FP Vision offers hassle-free communication with USB, Ethernet, LIMS and PCs and nearly unlimited storage capacity for test results.
Grabner Instruments offers two versions of MINIFLASH FP Vision: MINIFLASH FPH Vision, for high temperatures up to 400°C, and MINIFLASH FP Vision, for temperatures between -25°C and 120°C.
