Test Principles
The F313 Plastic Smoke Density Tester measures smoke optical density by placing a burning plastic sample in a controlled environment. A light source passes through the smoke, and a silicon photodiode detects the transmitted light. The system calculates the specific optical density of the smoke. Maximum optical density is measured to evaluate the smoke-generating characteristics of the plastic material. All measurements strictly comply with GB, ISO, and ASTM standards.
