Fire test according to FMVSS 302

Federal Motor Vehicles Safety Standards 302 - Flammability of Interior Materials

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 102 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.
