Abstract:
Join us for a deep dive on best practices for ignitor maintenance in automated flash point analyzers operating under ASTM D93 (Pensky-Martens) and ASTM D56 (Tag) methods. We'll cover why ignitor health is essential for accurate and reliable flash point testing, how to identify early signs of wear or malfunction, and provide practical tips on inspection, cleaning, and replacement intervals. We’ll also discuss the types of ignitors and special considerations. This session is ideal for lab technicians and quality managers aiming to minimize downtime and maintain compliance through proactive maintenance.
