The Flame Spread Index Tester is designed to evaluate the flame propagation characteristics of wall and ceiling lining materials. You can measure the material’s flame spread index (FSI) by exposing samples to a controlled tubular burner with a heat output of 530 J/s and monitoring the flame development over time. This tester allows you to assess fire performance accurately according to international and national standards, providing critical data for building safety, material development, and regulatory compliance.
