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.
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.
Feature
Standard calorimeter mounting block.
PLC control system provides stable and fast testing performance.
Analysis software with user friendly interface is easy to use and installed Stoll curve model internally.
Compact structure design reduces the requirements of fume hood.
Evaluates the potential for skin burns associated with a fabric’s ability to block convective and
radiant heat penetration
Automatic test operation provides repeatable and precise results
Independently controlled radiant heat source and convective heat source
Supports up to three copper disk calorimeter sensor assemblies
Integrated air-cooled sensor stand quickly prepares calorimeter sensor for next test
Water-cooled shutter is pneumatically actuated for precise exposure control
Automatically predicts time to second degree burn, with results shown as a real-time numerical and graphical display of sample performance compared to the Empirical Performance Curve
Small and portable, the TPP test device fits in most standard fume hood
