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
Standards
(1) BS EN ISO 6942 – Protective clothing – Protection against heat and flame – Method of test for the determination of heat transfer on exposure to a heat source
(2) EN 366 – Protective clothing against heat and flame – Resistance of materials to contact heat
(3) EN 407 – Protective gloves against thermal risks (heat and/or fire)
(4) ISO 11612 – Protective clothing – Clothing to protect against heat and flame
(5) ASTM F1939 – Standard Test Method for Evaluation of Thermal Protective Performance of Materials for Clothing
(6) ASTM F2702 – Standard Test Method for Heat Transfer and Thermal Protective Performance of Flame Resistant Clothing Materials Using a Thermal Protective Performance Tester
(7) NFPA 1971 – Standard on Protective Ensembles for Structural Fire Fighting and Proximity Fire Fighting
(8) NFPA 2112 – Standard on Flame-Resistant Garments for Protection of Industrial Personnel Against Flash Fire
(9) GB 38543 – Technical Specification for Fire Protection of Workwear for Industrial Personnel
(10) GB/T 38306 – Test Method for Thermal Protective Performance of Flame Retardant Protective Clothing
Principle：
Under exposure to a specified heat flux, the time to second-degree burns is derived from the intersection point of the response curve (temperature rise curve of the calorimetric sensor) and the human tissue tolerance curve (Stoll curve). The higher the product of the heat flux level and the time to second-degree burns, the stronger the thermal protective performance of the fabric.
