Product name
TSK 906 — Smoldering / single-cable test device (vertical flame spread)

Product overview
The TSK 906 is a laboratory test device designed to assess vertical flame spread and falling burning parts/drops from a single insulated conductor, wire or cable using a reproducible 1 kW propane/air flame in accordance with EN 60332‑1‑2 and the EN 60332 series. The unit features a stainless-steel protective housing, precise gas supply with mass flow controllers and a touch display with software-assisted burner calibration to ensure repeatable 1 kW flame conditions.
