Radiant Panel Flame Spread Tester Reference Standard ASTM E 162 - Standard Test Method For Flammability Of Material Surfaces Using Radiant Heat Energy • ASTM D 3675

Product Introduction

The radiation plate flame spread tester uses a gas thermal radiation plate to test the flammability of building surface materials (ASTM E162) and foam plastics (ASTM D3675). The flame spread index (IS) is determined by factors such as flame spread and heat dissipation. It is regarded as an essential parameter in many industry norms, especially for public transportation (trains and buses). Data collection and analysis are all automatically completed by the software.

Product features
The frame structures are all made of stainless steel. Beautiful and corrosion-resistant; The reflector is composed of a cast iron frame. The surface size of the reflector is 305X457mm. It is made of porous fireproof material and has a working temperature of 815 ℃.
The filter is equipped with a fan that can supply air to the reflector plate.
The device is equipped with a igniter, electronic ignition, and an automatic flameout safety monitoring device.
• Stainless steel sample holder, with observation points set every 3 inches for observing the progress of the flame front.
• High-temperature meter, for measuring the surface temperature of the radiation plate, including the bracket; The temperature reaches 815℃.
• Stainless steel sample holder and ignition nozzle device;
• Gas flow meter, gas control valve, to control the gas mixture sent into the radiant plate;
• Stainless steel exhaust pipe with detachable parts for easy cleaning of thermocouples. The exhaust pipe is equipped with 8 thermocouples as per standard.
Calibrate the burner with 1.8mm holes at 16 different angles, and they must be along the center line.
To control the surface temperature of the reflector, a blackbody temperature of 180℃ to 230℃ should be set, accurate to ±5℃, which is suitable for observing the surface temperature of the reflector with a surface radius of 250MM from a distance of 2 meters.
