The main purpose

Suitable for single or multi-component (coating, quilting, multi-layer, sandwich products and similar combinations) protective clothing, curtain drapery and large tents including pergola and door covering Textile vertical flame spread properties, easy ignition and the determination of the limited flame spread properties of protective clothing materials. Used to assess the properties of a material or combination of materials exposed to flame under controlled laboratory conditions.

Instrument characteristics

1. The heating wire is ignited.

2. Automatic timing positioning of the burner.

3. The ignition time can be set arbitrarily from 0 to 99.99 seconds. Ignition time and flame spread time are automatically recorded and displayed digitally.

Technical indicators

2. Ignition time and flame spread time timer: 0 to 99.99 seconds, accuracy: ±0.01 seconds.

3. Flame height measuring device: the flame height is adjustable from 10 to 60mm.

4. Sample holder: 560mm×170mm; 200mm×80mm; 200mm×160mm rectangular frame.

5. Gas used: industrial propane or butane gas.

6. Sample size: 560mm×170mm; 200mm×80mm; 200mm×160mm.
