How do you know if a material is flammable?

2022-04-14

A man contacts thousands of materials in his life.For example,wire and cable.

If these materials do not meet the safety standards, it will be a great safety hazard.

But how do we know whether these materials are flammable?

Under what conditions will these materials burnThese are unknowns.

We need to use Flammability Tester to do thousand times test.

And then we can get a result.

The VW-1 combustion tester is produced in strict accordance with UL standards It fully complies with the VW-1 combustion test standard and can complete VW-1 and FT-2 tests. It is economical and widely used by the wire and cable industry. The parameters are detailed as follows: The entire test is carried out in a sealed test chamber with a volume of 4.32 cubic meters. Test method: adjust the flame height, place the top of the flame under the test piece, burn for 15 seconds, extinguish for 15 seconds, repeat 5 times and check the burning condition of the test piece.
