Alcohol burner combustion tester

Introduction

The Alcohol Burner Combustion Tester is an instrument used to assess the flammability and burning behavior of materials when exposed to a controlled flame from an alcohol burner. This tester is crucial for evaluating the fire safety of various products across industries. Typically, a specimen is exposed to a flame of a specific height and duration, and parameters such as ignition time, burning rate, flame spread, and after-flame/afterglow times are recorded.

This testing helps determine a material's resistance to ignition and its contribution to fire propagation. The apparatus often includes features like adjustable flame height, automatic timing of the burning process, and sometimes an exhaust system to manage combustion products. Standards such as ISO 3795, relevant to the automotive industry for testing the flammability of interior materials, may utilize such testers. The data obtained from these tests are vital for product development, quality control, and ensuring compliance with fire safety regulations.
