Purpose
The method determines the burning rate of materials used internally in vehicles.
The main purpose of the test is to determine the burning rate of materials that are within 13 mm of the occupant compartment air space, in vehicles. Materials can be tested individually or in combination. The requirement is that the material must withstand a burning rate of 80 mm/min.
Method
The test is conducted inside a test chamber where the test specimen is mounted horizontally. The exposed side of the test specimen is subjected to a gas flame from underneath. The burnt distance and the time taken to burn this distance is measured during the test. The result, the burning rate, is expressed in mm/min.
Deliveries
A test report, in Swedish or English, is deliverd with the test results after testing.
