The information of gas required by flammability test
The flammability test usually refer to needle flame test chamber , horizontal vertical flame test and glow wire test . And glow wire test is carried out by heating circuit, no need to be ignited by gas. For needle flame test chamber , the methane with purity of not less than 98%. Is used. For IP Test Spary Nozzle of V - 0, V - 1 or V - 2, 5VA, 5VB class material, the gas is methane, over 98% purity. For flammability test of HF - 1, 2 - HF or H B F class foam material, the gas is methane, with not less than 98% purity and 37+ 1MJ/m3 calorific value . For single cable vertical flame test conform to IEC60332, propane and air mixed gas is applied. For horizontal vertical flame test, should use methane not less than 98% purity.
