Surgical Mask Flame Retardant Tester
The Surgical Mask Flame Retardant Tester is designed to evaluate the flame-retardant performance of surgical masks. In the event that a mask is accidentally exposed to flame, its flame-retardancy directly affects the safety of medical personnel. This instrument provides quantitative assessment of burning behavior, after-burning time, and smoldering, serving as a critical quality indicator for surgical masks.
The tester simulates actual use by mounting the mask on a head model and moving it over a flame igniter at a controlled linear speed, while recording flame interaction parameters.
Application
The Surgical Mask Flame Retardant Tester is applicable to flame-retardancy evaluation across the following industries and products:
(1) Medical and Healthcare Industry: surgical masks, disposable medical masks, N95/FFP masks, protective masks
(2) Protective Clothing Industry: flame-retardant facial protective equipment, medical gowns with mask integration
(3) Research and Development: development of flame-retardant mask materials, testing new mask prototypes, material performance evaluation
(4) Quality Control: production batch verification, monitoring mask compliance with flame-retardant standards
(5) Third-Party Testing Laboratories: certification testing, product performance verification, laboratory evaluations for regulatory compliance
The instrument is widely used for product development, production quality control, R&D, and laboratory testing.
Standards
The instrument complies with and can be applied to the following standards (including but not limited to):
(1) GB 19083-2010 – Technical Requirements for Medical Protective Masks — Synthetic Blood Penetration and Barrier Performance
(2) YY 0469-2011 – Technical Requirements for Medical Surgical Masks — Blood Penetration Test Device
(3) GB 2626-2006 – Respiratory Protective Equipment — Filtered Particulate Respirator — Flammability
(4) BS EN 136-1998 – Respiratory Protection Equipment — Full Face Mask Requirements — Flammability Test
Features
(1) Touch-tone and digital counting module control with automatic stop after preset time (1–99,999 s)
(2) Emulated human head model with metal mask clamp simulating actual mask usage
(3) High degree of automation: records burning time and flame-retardant time digitally
(4) Equipped with thermocouple flame temperature sensor and digital display
(5) Automatic ignition and adjustable flame height
(6) Precise linear movement of the head model for consistent flame exposure
(7) Safe observation through a box-type window with operation port
