Floor covering flammability testing system corresponds EN ISO 9239-1 and EN ISO 9239-2 standards. This is the main method for testing the flammability of floor coverings according to Euroclasses system. The test determines the rate of flame spread in a floor covering under radiant heat exposure simulating a growing fire situation in an adjacent room or corridor. The results are used to classify flooring materials into A2FL, BFL, CFL and DFL classes according to BS EN 13501-1:2007 + A1:2009.
The device can also be used for tests according to ASTM E648 and DIN 4102, part 14.
The test chamber consists of insulated supporting structures, covered with painted metal panels and insulated with calcium silicate boards. A temperature-resistant window is installed for observation. Specimen holder made of stainless steel and mounted on a sliding platform, ensuring safe and convenient sample loading.
Built-in device fiber metal mesh heating panel, whose gas and air supply is electronically regulated. The control system maintains a stable combustion mixture, guaranteeing a constant heat flow throughout the test duration.
