Drapery Flammability Tester
I. Product Overview
TheDrapery Flammability Testeris a specialized instrument designed to evaluate the flame resistance of textiles and drapery materials in compliance with international fire safety standards. It simulates real-world fire scenarios to quantify ignition resistance, flame spread, and self-extinguishing properties.
- Type: Vertical/horizontal flame propagation tester
- Test Standards: NFPA 701, ASTM D6413, ISO 6941
- Flame Source: Propane gas burner (12mm nozzle)
- Sample Size: 610×1220mm (vertical) / 610×2440mm (horizontal)
- Key Metrics:
- Flame Spread Time (seconds)
- Char Length (mm)
- Afterflame/Afterglow Duration
