What is a cone calorimeter test?

A cone calorimeter is a device used to study the fire behavior of small samples of various materials in condensed phase. It is widely used in the field of Fire Safety Engineering. ... The Cone Calorimeter has long been considered the most significant bench scale instrument in the field of fire testing.

We have this kind of machine which is called ASTM E1354 HEAT RELEASE CONE CALORIMETER WITH OXYGEN ANALYZER. The cone calorimeter is derived from the oxygen consumption of a rectangular sample (100mm×10mm) tested by Dr. Vytenis Babrauskas at a heat radiation value of 100KW/m2.

The cone calorimeter is based on the principle of oxygen consumption of material combustion. The heat released per 1Kg of oxygen is about 13.1MJ. It measures the heat release of the material, ignition time, oxygen consumption, CO and CO2 production, and the flow of combustion gas.

The cone calorimeter strictly conforms to the size of the laboratory, and the automatic control unit designed by the test software is convenient for the user to operate. In addition, he uses a 17-inch touch screen computer, which is fully compliant with international standards.

Standards compliant

-ISO 5660 fire reaction test, heat release rate, smoke rate and mass loss rate;

-ASTM E1354 Determination of heat and visible smoke release rate of materials and products using an oxygen consumption calorimeter;

-BS 476 Pt.15 combustion and structure test of building materials, determination of product heat release rate;
