Fire resistance testing device CFRT

flame resistanceautomaticfor cables

The Cable Fire Resistant Test Apparatus is designed to determine the ability of the cable to maintain circuit integrity when subject to fire under specified conditions. The specified fire conditions includes typically a propane gas flame at a temperature of 650 to 950 degrees, with/without the external shock of mechanical shock or spray water. The fire resistant test standards/methods include but are not limited to EN 50200, IEC 60331, BS 6387, BS 8491, BS 8434, SS 299… Cable Fire Resistant Test Schmatic & Test Characteristics EN 50200 • Ribbon type burner. • Flame temperature: 850±20°C. • Flame application time: 120min. • Mechanical shock.
