The Surface Flame Spread Test Apparatus is a high-precision instrument designed for evaluating the lateral flame propagation of materials. It is primarily used in compliance with BS 6853 series railway fire safety standards and BS 476-7 for building materials. This apparatus enables you to determine flame spread ratings based on flame extension length and propagation speed. With an advanced water-cooled sample holder, calibrated radiation panel, and digital flux sensors, you can perform controlled laboratory tests on wall, ceiling, and surface materials to ensure compliance with international fire safety regulations.

GB/T 2408‑2008 – Plastics burning performance test, horizontal burning method
ISO 5658‑1 – Fire spread index of building materials, small flame spread test, Part 1
ISO 5658‑2 – Fire spread index of building materials, small flame spread test, Part 2
ISO 5660‑2 – Heat release rate, smoke production, and mass loss, Part 2: Flame spread test method
ISO 5660‑4 – Heat release rate, smoke production, and mass loss, Part 4: Automotive interior materials
ASTM E162 – Surface flammability characteristics of materials (Flame Spread Index, FSI)
ASTM E648 – Assessment of carpet material flame spread
UL 94 – Plastic material flammability testing (Vertical and Horizontal Burning)
BS 476‑6:1989 + A1:2009 – Fire tests on building materials, Part 6: Small flame spread test
BS 6853:1999 – Railway vehicle material flame spread, smoke density, and toxicity evaluation
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.
