The SL-S19 45 Degree Automatic Flammability Tester is a specific type of flammability testing equipment commonly used for evaluating the flammability characteristics of textile fabrics. It is designed to determine the ignition resistance and flame spread properties of fabrics when exposed to a small ignition source.
The SL-S19 tester operates using a 45-degree angle testing configuration, where the fabric sample is positioned at a 45-degree angle to facilitate the observation and measurement of flame spread. The testing procedure typically involves the following steps:
1. Specimen preparation: Prepare the fabric sample according to the specified dimensions and requirements of the test method. The sample is usually a rectangular shape with specific dimensions.
2. Conditioning: Condition the fabric sample in a controlled environment to ensure it reaches equilibrium moisture content and temperature.
3. Ignition and testing: Mount the fabric sample on the testing apparatus, ensuring it is positioned at a 45-degree angle. Use an appropriate ignition source, such as a small flame or electric spark, to ignite the bottom edge of the fabric. Observe and measure various parameters, including ignition time, flame spread distance, and after-flame time.
4. Data collection and analysis: Record the data obtained during the testing process, such as the flame spread distance and other relevant observations. Analyze the results to determine the fabric's flammability characteristics.
The SL-S19 45 Degree Automatic Flammability Tester is commonly used in textile testing laboratories and compliance testing institutions to evaluate the flame resistance of fabrics. It helps assess the fabric's performance in terms of ignition resistance and flame spread, providing valuable information for product development, quality control, and regulatory compliance.
When operating the SL-S19 tester, it is essential to follow the manufacturer's instructions and adhere to relevant testing standards and regulations to ensure accurate and reliable results.
