FLAMESPREAD-400: Vertical Flame Propagation Analyzer

Overview
The FLAMESPREAD-400 assesses flame resistance of textiles per ASTM D6413, ISO 6941, and NFPA 701. Measures flame spread time, char length, and afterglow duration to certify fabrics for apparel, upholstery, and industrial use.

Core Features

1. Adjustable Flame Source: Propane burner with 0.1–10 kW heat output and 10–100 mm flame height.
2. Thermal Imaging: Infrared cameras track temperature gradients (±1°C accuracy) during combustion.
3. Automated Data Capture: Software records flame propagation speed (cm/s) and generates compliance reports.
4. Multi-Layer Testing: Simulates composite fabrics (e.g., flame-retardant liners in workwear).

Applications

• Apparel: Certify uniforms for firefighters, military, and oil rig workers.
• Furniture: Test upholstery fabrics for NFPA 701 compliance.
• Industrial: Validate flame-resistant coveralls for petrochemical plants.

Compliance
ASTM D6413, ISO 6941, NFPA 701, EN 11612.

Optional Add-Ons

• Horizontal flame testing modules.
• Smoke density sensors (TSI 5000 series).
• Customizable burn angles (0–90°).

Conclusion
The FLAMESPREAD-400 ensures materials meet stringent flame resistance standards, reducing fire hazards in high-risk environments.
