Test Procedures

Specimen Installation

Mount the photovoltaic module or roofing specimen securely on the adjustable test rack and set the required inclination angle.

System Configuration

Adjust the air duct angle and configure the fan speed according to the selected test method and standard requirements.

Ignition and Heating

Activate the radiant panel and combustion system. For applicable tests, ignite the wood crib or burner using the silicon nitride igniter.

Fire Exposure Simulation

Expose the specimen to controlled thermal radiation and wind conditions to simulate external fire scenarios as defined in the selected method.

Monitoring and Recording

Monitor airflow velocity using the impeller anemometers and observe the combustion behavior of the specimen throughout the test.

Test Completion

After the test cycle is completed, the system automatically cuts off the gas supply and records test data for further evaluation.

Maintenance Information

Routine inspection of the burner, gas pipelines, solenoid valves, and flame detection system is recommended to ensure safe operation. The airflow system, including the fan, air duct, and honeycomb grilles, should be checked periodically for cleanliness and proper alignment. Moving components such as the specimen rack adjustment mechanism and air duct angle drive system should be maintained to ensure smooth operation. Electrical and control systems should be verified regularly according to laboratory safety procedures.

Conclusion

The Roof-Mounted Photovoltaic Module Fire Test Apparatus provides a standardized and reliable solution for evaluating the external fire reaction performance of roof-mounted photovoltaic modules and roofing products. By simulating fire exposure conditions involving thermal radiation and wind effects, the system meets the requirements of GB/T 30735. ENV 1187. and ISO 12468-1. Its stable structure, precise airflow control, and automated operation make it suitable for fire safety research, product certification, and compliance testing.
