The Number One TAG Flash Point Tester in the Market

  • Quick start: Easy to use, intuitive test setup
  • Convenience: 7” touchscreen and a customizable smart user interface (e.g., real-time data during flash point measurements, retrieval of frequently used functions)
  • Complete process: Guided workflows, full compliance
  • Status light: Instrument condition monitoring, even from afar
  • Wetted parts: Disassembly in seconds
  • Cleaning: Fast, hassle-free; results not compromised by sample carry-over

The Widest TAG Flash Point Range on the Market

TAG 500 features a groundbreaking cooling system combination for Tagliabue flash point testing:

  • Hybrid: Unparalleled lab flexibility and sample spectrum size
  • Internal cooling system power: Flash point test temperatures between +10 °C and +130 °C
  • Extension: External cooler for flash point tests with sample temperatures between -35 °C and +130 °C

TAG 300 has a budget-friendly, straightforward internal cooling system that allows measurements with flash points between +10 °C and +110 °C.

Safety First

TAG 500 protects your staff and lab:

  • Safety parameters: No accidental sample overheating
  • Two independent, redundant detectors: Fail-safe fire detection
  • Fire extinguisher: Fire automatically extinguished, measurements securely terminated, sample returned to safe temperature

TAG 300 can optionally be upgraded with a fire extinguisher and unique fire detection system.

Measurement Data, a Click Away

  • Test results: Automatic integration into working environment
  • Reports: Printable or exportable via automated e-mail or LIMS to any location in your network
  • AP Connect: Storage of tens of thousands of immediately available measurements in a single data hub, accessible from any network computer, anytime

TAG Flash Point Tester: Compliance with Relevant Standards

  • Standard methods: The TAG flash point tester series complies with ASTM D56, ASTM D3941, ASTM D3934, ISO 1516, ISO 1523, and more international and national standards
  • User-defined methods: Create user-defined equilibrium and non-equilibrium testing methods adapted to your needs by using the intuitive user interface of the TAG flash point tester series
