ISO 6940 Fabrics Vertical Flammability Testing Equipment

Product Introduction

Vertical Flammability Tester , to determine the flammability resistance of vertical oriented fabrics, and 45°inclined fabrics material for toys, other material to making toys and soft-filling toy.

The gas is controlled by a solenoid valve, ignition time is digitally set and test result is displayed on large LCD. The improved marker threads mounting devices ensure easy and fast installation, with accurate burner and micro switch operated trip threads. 3 optical scanning devices are used to detect the severance of threads to offer accurate and reliable timing.

Description

How fabrics are tested for flammability?

1 . The visual timing test : A fabric strip is suspended vertically and then ignited from the bottom edge, then the rate of flame spread is determined . 2 . The 45 test : In which the time (t), for the flame to travel 5 inch over fabric sloping at 45 degree angle is measured in seconds

What is vertical flammability test?

A test specimen is positioned vertically above a controlled flame and exposed for a specified period of time. Following exposure, the flame source is removed. Measurements are made on the length of time that the specimen continues to flame and the time afterglow continues after the flame source has been removed.
