Product Description

ISO 5658, ASTM E 1317 IMO Spread of Flame Tester

Introduction:   

IMO Spread of Flame Tester is used to evaluate combustion characteristics of building materials and ship materials. It measures the spread rate of flame, the flame for ignition by distances, CFE (Critical Flux at Extinguishment), and total heat release. This test method originated from ISO 5658-2 (Reaction to fire tests-Spread of flame- Part 2 Lateral spread on building products in vertical configuration) and measures combustion characteristics of the vertical specimen (155mmX800mm). The specimen is exposed to the reasonable radiant heat field and is measured by a thermocouple for exhaust gas calibrated through the progress of combustion as unit of mV. IMO records the spread rate of flame after this records ignition and extinguishment time of flame for each distance of specimens. And the other test results is Heat for ignition (MJ/m2), Heat for sustained burning (MJ/m2), Critical flux at extinguishment (kW/m2), Average heat for sustained burning (MJ/m2), Total heat release (kW) and so on.

Standard:   

• ISO 5658-2

  - Reaction to fire tests -Spread of flame - Part 2 Lateral spread on building products in a vertical configuration

• IMO Resolution A. 653(16)

  - Recommendation on fire test procedures for flammability of bulkhead, ceiling, and deck finish materials

• ASTM E 1317

  - Standard test method for flammability of marine surface finishes

 

Features:   

1.  All control systems are explosion-proof.

2.  Air Cylinder type of Pilot Flame Burner allowing the flame impingement test method based on IMO to be automatically performed.

3.  Double grid to see the spread of flame length as well as enlarged Restrict View Mirror for easy observation.

4.  DAQ Program for applying a spread of flame length and combustion characteristics to image storage.

5.  19" Analysis Rack for measuring spread rate of flame, critical flux, and heat release rate.

6.  IMO Program available for controlling Air Blower to facilitate change in the amount of combustion-heat in Radiant Panel Calibration (for measuring heat release rate by each section of the radiant panel.

7.  Program for blocking gas supply in the failure of ignition in the radiant panel, which Flame Relay System detects.

Test result:

• Heat for sustained burning (MJ/m2) 
  - It is gained by multiplying time, which ranges from the initial exposure of the test object to the arrival of the flame-tip in each point, by radiant heat flow penetrated against a nonflammable calibration panel in the same point.

• Average heat for sustained burning (MJ/m2) 
  - It is an average of characteristic values measured in individual positions by continuous sustained heat. The characteristic value is measured in continuous position at an interval of 50 mm from the initial 1500mm to the final position or 400 mm, whichever is lower.

• Heat for ignition (MJ/m2) 
  - It is gained by multiplying time, which ranges from the initial exposure of the test object to the arrival of the flame-tip at a point of 150 mm, by the heat flow of this point. (However, heat flow is gained by pre-calibration of test equipment.)

• Critical flux at extinguishment (kW/m2) 
  - It means heat flux in the location where flame spreads to the farthest distance from the centerline of the combustion test object. The heat flow is gained by performing a calibration test of a tester using calibration panels.

• Total heat release (MJ) 
  - It means total heat release during the test period.

• Peak heat release rate (kW) 
  - It means peak heat release rate during the test period.

Specification:   

1.  Rail for easily measuring heat flux of radiant panel at an interval of 50mm.

2.  IMO Program to facilitate all calibrations and tests as well as to printout out results by standards (IMO, ISO).

3.  Radiant panel temperature controller: Equipment to prevent flame back toward the backside of the Radiant panel, check the internal temperature of the radiant panel, and automatically block gas sol. v/v in case of flame back-flow.

4.  MFC (Mass Flow Controller) to easily measure the heat amount of methane gas in measuring critical heat flux.

5.  Explosion-proof options of all control systems for safety in combustion in the radiant panel as well as the Check-Valve and its Gas shut-off valve (Solenoid Valve) to prevent back-flow in the gas line.

6.  Camcorder to observe and save test conditions in a program during tests.
