After inquiries and votes carried out in accordance with the rules of ASD-STAN defined in ASD-STANs General Process Manual, this standard has received approval for Publication. prEN 3844-3

14、:2018 (E) 3 1 Scope This standard specifies the test for the determination of the resistance of non-metallic materials in part or in whole to flame and glow propagation and to flame penetration. This test method is also used for testing non-metallic materials which have to meet the test criteria for

15、 the 45 Bunsen burner test. It is used for evaluation of non-metallic materials or constructions used in the interiors of aerospace vehicles but also may be used in other applications as specified in applicable procurement and regulatory documents. This standard should be used to measure and describ

16、e the properties of non-metallic materials, products or assemblies in response to heat and flame under controlled laboratory conditions and should not be used to describe or appraise the fire hazard or fire risk of materials, products, or assemblies under actual fire conditions. However, results of

17、this test may be used as elements of a fire risk assessment which takes into account all of the factors which are pertinent to an assessment of the fire hazard of a particular end use. 2 Normative references The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their

22、ceases following the removal of flame application Note 1 to entry: The time is expressed in seconds. 3.4 flame penetration flame penetration occurs if the Bunsen burner flame penetrates (passes through) the test specimen during the time of flame application Note 1 to entry: Flame penetration is defi

23、ned to have occurred if the burner flame passes through a hole or crack in the specimen that forms during the test. Flaming combustion on the top of the specimen that results from auto ignition is not considered flame penetration in this test. 4 Principle of method Testing is performed on a specimen

24、 that is held at an angle of 45 to the horizontal plane. A burner flame, having defined parameters, is applied to the specimen for a defined period of time. The after flame time, after removal of the burner flame, and the after glow time is measured. Flame penetration is reported. 5 Designation EXAM

25、PLE Description block 45 BUNSEN BURNER TEST Identity block EN3844-3 Number of this standard 6 Test apparatus 6.1 Test cabinet Tests shall be conducted in a draught-free cabinet, like shown in Figure 1 or other equivalent enclosures. Details and dimensions of a suitable test cabinet are given in Figu

26、re 2. Cabinets of bigger dimensions may be used if it has been proven that similar results are obtained. 1 mm thick metal sheet shall be used for the bottom surface of the cabinet. It is recommended to paint the entire inside back walls of the cabinet mat black to facilitate the viewing of the test

27、specimen. A mirror may be located on the inside back surface to facilitate observation of the hidden surface. It is suggested that the cabinet be located inside an exhaust hood to facilitate clearing the cabinet of smoke and fumes after each test. prEN 3844-3:2018 (E) 5 6.2 Specimen holder A specime

28、n holder shall be provided, such that the minimum exposed area of the specimen is 200 mm 200 mm. The specimen holder shall be fabricated of corrosion-resistant metal. An example for a construction is given in Figure 3. 6.3 Burner 6.3.1 Burner type The burner shall be a Bunsen or Tirril type, have a

29、9,5 mm inside diameter barrel, and shall be equipped with a needle valve to adjust the gas flow rate and thereby adjust the flame height. The burner shall have no air supplied either directly or by aspiration. The Bunsen burner defined in ASTM-D 5025 has been found acceptable. 6.3.2 Burner fuel Meth

30、ane gas shall be used as burner fuel. Natural gas is also acceptable if it contains more than 90 % methane. 6.3.3 Plumbing for gas supply The necessary gas connections and the applicable plumbing shall be essentially as specified in Figure 4. A control valve system with a delivery rate designed to f

31、urnish gas to the burner under a pressure of (17 2) kPa at the burner inlet shall be installed between the gas supply and the burner. 6.3.4 Flame height indicator There may be a flame height indicator spaced 25 mm from the burner barrel and extending above the burner, as shown in Figure 5. The indic

32、ator may have two prongs, 8 mm in length, marking the distances, 22 mm and 38 mm above the top of the burner. When the flame is properly adjusted, then the tip of the flame shall be at the 38 mm prong and for pure methane the tip of the inner cone of the flame will be at the 22 mm prong. The flame h

33、eight indicator may be removable. 6.3.5 Flame Temperature When the height is adjusted, measure the flame temperature with the help of a calibrated temperature measurement device and an allocated thermocouple (Type K, 1,5 mm). The tip of the thermocouple shall be completely in the flame. The flame te

34、mperature shall be at least 843 C. 6.4 Timer One or more stop-watches or other timers, calibrated and graduated to the nearest 0,1 s, shall be used to measure the time of the flame application and the after flame and after glow time. 7 Test specimens 7.1 Number of specimens At least three specimens

35、shall be prepared and tested. prEN 3844-3:2018 (E) 6 7.2 Specimens size The specimen shall be a square of at least 220 mm 220 mm. 8 Conditioning Condition specimens at (23 2) C and at (50 5) % relative humidity for min. 24 h. Remove only one specimen at a time from the conditioning environment immed

36、iately before being tested. 9 Burner adjustment a) Assure that the air supply to the burner is shut off. b) Open the stopcock in the gas line fully. c) Light the burner. d) Adjust the gas flowrate to produce a flame height of 38 mm. 10 Test procedure Make sure that the test cabinet is essentially dr

37、aught free. Assure that the specimen is mounted in the frame, so that the edges are held securely. The exposed surface of the specimen, defined in the test specification shall be faced down. Place the burner at least 76 mm away from where the specimen will be located during the test. Insert the spec

38、imen into the test position. Close the cabinet door, and keep it closed during the test. Place the burner, so that the centre of the burner barrel is under and 25 mm away from the centre of the exposed surface of the specimen, see Figure 6. Start the timer as soon as the burner is in test position.

39、Apply the flame for 30 s, then withdraw the burner by moving the burner into start position. Determine the after flame time and the after glow time for the specimen to the nearest 0,2 s. Determine whether flame penetration occurred. After both flaming and glowing have ceased: a) open the cabinet doo

40、r slowly to clear the test cabinet of fumes and smoke; b) remove the specimen. Remove any material from the bottom of the cabinet that fell from the specimen. If necessary, clean the test cabinet window prior to testing the next specimen. prEN 3844-3:2018 (E) 7 11 Test report The test report shall i
