Test Apparatus for Flammability of Materials with As1530.2

This tester is developed base on the standard AS1530.2, test for flammability of materials. The method is applied to the testing of a thin sheet or woven material which is sufficiently pliable to be inserted into the test apparatus by hand without special softening treatment, so that it may be graded according to a flammability index.

1. 1. Two parallel brass rails, light gauge angle section which is  formed in length to be slightly convex, with location pin;
   2. All other frames made of stainless steel material;
   3. A 533.4mm scaler is fixed to one side of the mounting frame, with 21 equally space and 25.4mm apart;
   4. Two stainless steel wire alone location pin with lightly tension to a held specimen in position;
   5. Ignition copper trough, with an internal dimension of 20mmx10mmx3mm, with brass support, height-adjustable.
   6. Stainless steel flue and hood;
   7. 4 thermocouple, type K, positioned symmetrically within the flue, 570mm above the test specimen;
   8. 1 thermocouple, type K, positioned in the control box, monitor ambient temperature;
   9. Labview software with DAQ module for temperature record and the Area (A) calculation;
