The Thermal Radiation Flame Spread Tester is designed to evaluate the combustion characteristics of building materials, high-speed train materials, and marine materials. It focuses on critical parameters such as flame spread rate, ignition heat, and total heat release. The device measures flame spread, critical heat flux, and sustained burning heat according to standards such as GB/T 28752-2012 and ISO 5658-2. It is widely applied in building construction, transportation, and shipbuilding for material performance testing under fire conditions.
Applications
The tester is widely used in:
(1) Fire performance testing of construction materials, panels, and insulation boards.
(2) Evaluation of flame spread and heat release for railway vehicle interior materials.
(3) Quality control for industrial safety compliance of rigid and elastic polymeric materials.
(4) R&D of fire-retardant treatments and coatings for building and transport applications.
(5) Certification laboratories assessing compliance with international fire safety standards.
(6) Educational and training institutions teaching material combustion behavior and fire dynamics.
Standards
The instrument complies with domestic and international standards, including:
NF P92-501 – Rate of flame spread for building materials
TB/T 2639.1 – Fire performance testing of railway materials – Radiation test method
ISO 5660 series – Reaction-to-fire tests, heat release rate
ASTM E1354 – Standard test method for heat and visible smoke release rates for materials using oxygen consumption calorimeter
EN 13823 – Reaction to fire tests for building products – Building products excluding floorings exposed to the single burning item
GB/T 28752-2012 – Test Method for Lateral Flame Spread on Vertical Surfaces
ISO 5658-2 – Fire Spread Test for Vertical Surfaces of Building Products
IMO Res.A653(16) – Surface Flammability Test for Bulkhead, Ceiling, and Deck Materials
