BS476-6 Building Material Critical Heat Flux Tester

Introduction:

• BS 476-6 is a test method of measuring the flame propagation properties of materials, primarily for fire protection performance evaluation of the walls and ceilings, measurement results are expressed as an index of flame propagation.

• During the test, the specimen is exposed to the tubular torch, heat release of the lamp is 530J / S. 2 minutes and 45 seconds later, the two electric heater was adjusted to 1800 watts in total, 5 minutes after starting the test, reduced the power to 1500 watts, keep the power not changed until finishing the experiment, the total test time is 20 minutes.
