Test Procedures

Install the sample in the test chamber using the pneumatic drawer and proper sample holder.

Connect the propane supply and compressed air system.

Activate the radiation source to achieve the desired thermal flux and preheat the sample.

Ignite the sample using the propane burner positioned 51 mm above the sample plane.

Monitor flame spread using the laser pointer and record temperature, heat flux, and ignition parameters via the data acquisition system.

Test duration is automatically recorded and ends at the set time or upon completion of flame propagation.

After testing, remove the sample and inspect the chamber for maintenance and cleaning.

Maintenance Information

Regularly clean the test chamber, radiation plate, and propane burner to ensure uniform heating and accurate measurements.

Calibrate thermocouples, heat flux system, and data acquisition equipment periodically.

Verify the pneumatic drawer and sample holders are operating smoothly.

Check propane and compressed air supplies before each test.

Maintain ambient temperature between 10–35°C for consistent testing conditions.
