When referring to the 45° Flammability Tester, it usually refers to the 45 Degree Inclined Plane Flammability Tester. This is an experimental device used to evaluate the combustion properties of materials, especially at a 45-degree oblique angle. Here are some details about the 45° Flammability Tester:
principle:
The 45° slope combustion tester is based on the principle of slope combustion. It evaluates the combustion performance of the material by placing the material sample on a 45-degree slope, igniting one end of the sample, and observing the flame expansion and burning time.
main component:
- Inclined surface: usually made of non-combustible material, such as stainless steel or ceramic, used to support and place samples.
- Ignition source: used to ignite one end of the sample, which can be an open flame or a flame torch, etc.
- Timing device: used to measure burning time.
- Observation window: used to observe and record the combustion process of the sample.
- Sampling clamp: used to fix and maintain the position of the sample.
Testing process:
1. Prepare the sample: Cut the sample to be tested to a specific size and shape, and make sure the surface of the sample is smooth and consistent.
2. Place the sample: Place the sample on a 45-degree slope, fix it on the sampling fixture, and ensure that one end of the sample is in contact with the ignition source.
3. Ignite the sample: Use an ignition source to ignite one end of the sample.
4. Observe and record: Observe the burning condition of the sample and record the flame expansion speed, burning time and other parameters.
5. Analysis and evaluation: Evaluate the combustion performance of the sample based on the test results, such as flame propagation speed, burning time, etc.
application:
The 45° flammability tester is widely used in textiles, plastics, rubber, furniture, electronic equipment and other industries to evaluate the combustion performance and safety performance of materials. Test results can help develop appropriate safety standards and requirements to ensure that the product's performance in a fire situation complies with relevant regulations and requirements.
It should be noted that different industries and countries may have specific testing standards and requirements. When using the 45° flammability tester, testing and evaluation should be carried out according to the corresponding standards and specifications.
