Significance and Use5.1 This test method is intended for use when measuringsurface flammability of flexible cellular materials exposed tofire. The test method provides a laboratory test procedure formeasuring and comparing the surface fl

16、ammability of materialswhen exposed to a prescribed level of radiant heat energy. Thetest is conducted using specimens that are representative, to theextent possible, of the material or assembly being evaluated.For example, if an assembly is required to be tested, suchspecimens shall replicate the t

17、ype and thickness of all thelayers present in the assembly being evaluated.5.2 The rate at which flames will travel along surfacesdepends upon the physical and thermal properties of thematerial, product, or assembly under test, the specimen mount-ing method and orientation, the type and level of fir

18、e or heatexposure, the availability of air, and properties of the surround-ing enclosure. (1-6)4, 55.3 Test Method E162 is a generic version of this testmethod, using an apparatus that is substantially the same as theone used in this test method. However, Test Method E162 isnormally intended for app

19、lication to specimens other thanflexible cellular materials.5.3.1 The pilot burner in this test method is different fromthe pilot burner in Test Method E162.5.4 In this procedure, the specimens are subjected to one ormore specific sets of laboratory fire test conditions. If differenttest conditions

20、are substituted or the end-use conditions arechanged, it is not always possible by or from this test to predictchanges in the fire-test-response characteristics measured.Therefore, the results are valid only for the fire test exposureconditions described in this procedure.5.5 If the test results obt

21、ained by this test method are to beconsidered as part of an overall assessment of fire hazard in abuilding or structure, then the criteria, concepts and proceduresincorporated into Guide E1546 shall be taken into consider-ation.6. Apparatus6.1 The apparatus shall be essentially as shown in Fig. 1 an

23、F). The panel shall beequipped (see Fig. 1) with a venturi-type aspirator for mixinggas and air at approximately atmospheric pressure; a centrifu-gal blower, or equivalent, capable of providing 9.4 dm3/s (1200ft3/hour) air at a pressure of 0.7 kPa (2.8 in. water); an air filterto prevent dust from o

25、 be affected by the heatinput during the test. Observation marks shall be filed on thesurface of the specimen holder to correspond with 75-mm(3-in.) interval lines on the specimen.6.1.2.1 The calibration process (see A1.2) shall be con-ducted with the specimen holder to be used in the tests toensure

27、directly in front of theradiant panel. The support and bracing members shall beconstructed from metal stock. Since the angle of the specimenand its position with respect to the panel are critical, theframework dimensions specifying these conditions shall bewithin 3.0 mm (0.13 in.) of the values give

28、n in Fig. 1.6.1.4 Pilot BurnerThe pilot burner shall be a porcelaintube 203-230 mm (8-9 in.) in length, nominally 6.3 mm (0.25in.) in diameter, with two holes 1.5 6 0.1 mm (0.059 6 0.004in.) in diameter equally spaced in the tube (see Fig. 3). Theburner shall be mounted horizontally and at an angle

Flow rates of 0.015 dm3/s (0.032ft3/min) of acetylene and 0.075 dm3/s (0.16

31、ft3/min) of air havebeen found to provide the desired flame.6.1.5 StackThe stack shall be made from nominally1.0-mm (0.040-in.) sheet steel with shape and dimensions asshown in Fig. 1.

For cases where preliminary tests indicaterapid flame spread, a system shall be used capable of acquiringdata fast enough to ensure adequate

37、 results (see 11.6).6.1.8 HoodA hood with exhaust blower placed over thestack is required. Before igniting the panel, but with theexhaust hood operating, the air flow rate through the stack shallproduce a nominal velocity of 0.5 m/s (100 ft/min, 30 m/min).Measurements are to be made either with a ho

Hazards7.1 Safeguards shall be installed in the panel fuel supplysystem to guard against a gas air fuel explosion in t

Potential safeguards include, but are not limited to,one or more of the following: a gas feed cut-off activated whenthe air supply fails; a flame sensor directed at the panel surfacethat stops fuel flow when the panel flame goes out; and a heatdetector mounted in contact with the rad

48、iant panel plenum thatis activated when the panel temperature exceeds safe limits.Manual reset is a requirement of any safeguard system used.7.2 The exhaust system must be so designed and operatedthat the laboratory environment is protected from smoke andgas. The operator shall be instructed on ways

49、 to minimizeexposure to combustion products by following sound safetyand industrial hygiene practices. For example, ensure that theexhaust system is working properly and wear appropriateclothing including gloves, safety glasses, breathing apparatus(when hazardous fumes are expected).7.3 During this test, very high heat fluxes and high tempera-tures are generated that are capable of igniting some clothingfollowing even brief exposures. Precautions shall be taken toavoid ignitions of this type.8. Test Specimens8.1 The test specimens s
