Thermal Protective Performance Tester
The Thermal Protective Performance Tester (TPP) is designed to evaluate the thermal insulation and burn-injury protection capability of flame-retardant fabrics used in firefighter suits, protective gloves, workwear, and industrial safety clothing. By exposing specimens to controlled radiant and/or convective heat, the instrument measures the heat energy transferred through the fabric and determines the time to second-degree burn based on the Stoll curve. This provides a highly accurate and scientific assessment of thermal protection performance for PPE material development, certification, and quality control.
Application:
The thermal protection performance (TPP) tester is mainly used to test the thermal insulation properties of horizontally placed flame retardant protective clothing fabrics exposed to radiant and convective heat sources.measuring the resulting damage to human skin.
Highlights：
Automatic test operation provides repeatable and precise results
Independently controlled radiant heat source and convective heat source
Water-cooled shutter is pneumatically actuated for precise exposure control
