Features
Large Radiation Panel: 850 × 850 mm with reinforced structural support.
Vertical Sample Holder: Includes standard scale markings to measure flame spread distance and critical heat flux.
Water-Cooled System: Prevents sample holder damage during long-duration high-temperature testing.
Small Flame Ignition: Uses electric spark ignition for consistent flame application.
Automatic Safety Cut-Off: High-temperature sensors shut off gas supply if the radiation panel extinguishes.
Calibrated Heat Flux Sensors: Traceable to NIST for accurate radiation flux measurement.
Digital Control Box: Allows adjustment of gas and air flow with digital display of radiation flux.
PLC & HMI Integration: Displays all test parameters for real-time monitoring and control.
Accessories
Water-cooled sample holder
Calibrated porous panel
Heat flux sensors
Electric spark ignition system
PLC & HMI control system
Gas and air flow regulation valves
Safety interlock devices
Test Procedures
Ensure a minimum of 5 meters of clear space around the installation area.
Connect the apparatus to 220V, 50Hz, 10A power supply.
Supply industrial propane and compressed air to the system.
Mount the test sample vertically on the water-cooled holder.
Adjust the radiation panel and calibrate heat flux sensors.
Ignite the sample using the small flame ignition system.
Monitor flame spread distance and propagation speed using the scale markings and digital sensors.
Record data for critical heat flux and flame spread classification.
After testing, shut off gas and air supply and allow the apparatus to cool before sample removal.
Maintenance Information
Regularly inspect and clean the radiation panel and water-cooled holder.
Check gas and air supply lines for leaks before each test.
Calibrate heat flux sensors periodically to maintain traceability.
Inspect electrical connections and PLC/HMI for operational stability.
Replace worn or damaged safety interlocks immediately.
