ERAFLASH S10TM


– The


automated side of safe fl ash


point testing


ERAFLASH S10 is eralytics unique 10-position autosampler fl ash point tester.


It is the perfect instrument for the automated analysis of up to 10 samples making it the analyzer of choice for high-throughput laboratories, handling large amounts of samples every day.


ERAFLASH S10 is fully compliant with ASTM D7094 that offers ASTM proven excellent correlation to Pensky Martens testers (ASTM D93) and ASTM D6450. Both are continuously closed cup methods and therefore intrinsically safe in usage.


With a low sample volume of 1-2 mL and the intrinsically safe continuously closed cup method it is the ideal instrument for unattended fl ash point measurements and guarantees maximum safety. There is no risk at all of a fi re in the lab as any fl ame is automatically extinguished due to a lack of oxygen.


With its unrivaled temperature range of -25 to 420 C (-13 to 788 °F) ERAFLASH S10 can be used for fuel specifi cation purposes and is also an extremely cost effi cient tool for special applications like the fl avors and fragrances industry all the way to big used oil testing facilities. All industries profi t from the small sample volume and the patented Peltier Boost Technology (PBT)TM


heating and cooling rates and therefore for shortest turnaround times on the market.


Another great benefi t is the optional cooling lid for the ERAFLASH S10 which is a unique solution for many reasons: The pre-cooled lid allows easy and time-saving sample preparation. As a consequence the sample cups are pre-cooled as well what means that no complicated cooling prior sample fi lling is necessary.


The pre-cooled samples need less intensive cooling during sample measuring resulting in shorter turn-around times. As no elevated temperatures are reached and volatile compounds are far less likely to evaporate before the measurement is started, more precise and reliable results are reached.


For even more measurement comfort eralytics’ fl ash point testers offer a quality control (QC) mode right on the instrument. To perform effi cient quality control, the user can set individual warning levels to each QC sample. If a sample is measured and the results fall outside these limits a warning is automatically displayed. QC charts are available to easily identify long term drifts and perform statistical evaluations of results.


With the new Software Generation 8 eralytics again took a further step towards an even more user-friendly interface, guiding the user easy and fast through all necessary measurement steps.


Due to the outstanding speed and precision the ERAFLASH S10 is the preferred fl ash point tester for diesel, jet fuel an lube oil testing and the ideal instrument for valuable samples like fl avors and fragrances.

It measures all kinds of vapor pressures like air saturated and absolute vapor pressure of gasoline, RVPE and true vapor pressure of live and dead crudes always complying with the latest international standards as ASTM D5188, D5191, D6377, D6378, D6897, EN13016, etc.

With its unmatched precision, speed and versatility ERAVAP measures even highly viscous samples and covers the widest possible temperature range from -20 °C to 120 °C (4 °F to 248 °F).


Depending on the application ERAVAP comes with a pressure sensor of 1000 kPa (EV10) or 2000 kPa (EV20). Measuring results with a 1000 kPa pressure sensor offers a better resolution and a better stability. With the 1000 kPa pressure sensor fewer re-calibrations are necessary while still staying within the specifi ed limits of the CRMs in the ASTM standards. Using a 2000 kPa pressure sensor is an effi cient solution for special applications like vapor pressure testing of liquifi ed petroleum gas (propane, and propane/butane mixtures).


ERAVAPs built in quality control mode ensures most accurate results at all times. To perform effi cient quality control, the user can set individual warning levels to each QC sample. If measuring results fall outside defi ned limits a warning is automatically displayed.


Additionally ERAVAP’s capabilities can be extended with eralytics unique special application modules: • Low VP Module for the measurement of e.g. chemicals with vapour pressures as low as 0.1 kPa within an extrapolated measuring range of -99 to 300°C.


• High Viscosity Module that allows to heat the inlet and outlet of the analyser up to 70 °C to be able to measure e.g. crude oil samples with a high viscosity at ambient temperature. • Low Temperature Module to perform vapor pressure measurements of e.g. gasoline samples down to -20°C (-4°F)


Due to its portability ERAVAP is also used in mobile laboratories around the world. It even stays portable with the directly attached auto sampler. An easily removable full metal housing allows fast access for calibration purposes without dismantling the instrument.


ERAVAP is the analyser of choice for specifying the vapor pressures of fuels, quality control of refi ning streams, fuel blending and research or mobile applications. It is suitable for numerous sample types like gasoline, hydrocarbon solvents, LPG, crude oil, jet fuel and solvents with one single, portable analyser. For More Info, email:

Maximum safety and effi ciency at all levels in the process cycle: ERAVAP ONLINE –


vapor pressure testing at its best With ERAVAP ONLINE eralytics developed the process-solution


for the already well-proven laboratory vapor pressure tester ERAVAP. Its core is based on the very same measurement cell as the laboratory instrument uses. The measurement cell was further ruggedised for being operated 24/7 further increasing the already excellent durability of the lab instrument. Results from ERAVAP ONLINE are identical to laboratory results. There is no need for correlating results in any way. With the TM, eralytics provides an


latest invention, the Fast VP-Method effi cient monitoring of process loop applications


ERAVAP ONLINE handles up to three sample streams and one quality control stream. The measurement results are output over MODBUS and/or four analog lines (4-20mA). Four confi gurable digital inputs and four outputs can be used for further communication if needed. With its versatile communication confi gurability ERAVAP ONLINE can be easily integrated into every thinkable control environment.


Completely safe with the ex-proof housing Another very important aspect for often harsh process


environments is safety, in particular explosion prevention. Therefore, ERAVAP Online is completely explosion proof and safe with certifi cations according to UL Class 1 Zone 1, ATEX and IECEx.


allowing for unmatched


For a great operator convenience, ERAVAP ONLINE is equipped with an ex-proof 15” touchscreen for setup and on-site inspection. The operator can fully control the analyzer over the touchscreen and all system parameters can be checked. In regular operating mode ERAVAP ONLINE runs fully automated. If necessary remote control is possible via MODBUS or the digital inputs.


Fast VP-MethodTM for effi cient monitoring of process loop applications


Providing feedback to a process control loop requires a quick delivery of results, the faster a result is delivered, the faster the controller can react to any changes on the product. This is why eralytics developed the Fast VP-MethodTM results obtained with the Fast VP-MethodTM


for ERAVAP Online. The show a slight drift from the vapor pressure measured according to D6378 but without


giving up on its repeatability. If delivering results quickly has a bigger impact for you than having slight deviations from a value measured according to a specifi c standard method the Fast VP-MethodTM VP-MethodTM your process.


Additional to the Fast VP-MethodTM ASTM standards.


will be the method of your choice. The use of the Fast helps improving your process control loop providing more results in less time, therefore ensuring a faster response on , regular D6378 measurements can be performed for quality control according to the


Minimum Downtime through fast swappable measurement cells ERAVAP ONLINE comes with a set of two measurement cells which store all important calibration parameters directly. The downtime for a mandatory recalibration is not more than a minute – just the time needed to exchange the two measurement cells. The spare cell is then recalibrated off-site.


Full compliance to ASTM D6377, D6378, D6897


With available test methods for crude oil (ASTM D6377), gasoline (ASTM D6378) and LPG (ASTM D6897) the ex-proof ERAVAP ONLINE analyser is the ideal solution for a wide variety of different applications in your process environment. Whether it is quality control or fuel blending ERAVAP ONLINE is the analyser of choice.
