ISO 1716 Bomb Calorimeter Flammability Analyzer Fire Tester for Building Materials

Heat of combustion of materials is important characterize parameters to calculated building materials release heat and fire basic data. ISO 1716 Calorimeter Flammability Analyzer Fire Tester For Building Materials is designed according to ISO 1716-2002.

For building materials, there are several recognized test methods related to flammability analysis. One commonly referenced standard is the ISO 5660-1 (or its counterpart ASTM E1354) Cone Calorimeter test. The Cone Calorimeter measures heat release, smoke production, and other flammability parameters when a small sample of the building material is subjected to controlled heat flux.


Other test methods relevant to building material flammability analysis include:


1. ASTM E84 (or its counterpart UL 723) - Standard Test Method for Surface Burning Characteristics of Building Materials (often referred to as the "Steiner Tunnel Test").


2. ASTM E119 - Standard Test Methods for Fire Tests of Building Construction and Materials. This test evaluates the fire endurance of building assemblies, such as walls or floors, exposed to a standardized fire exposure.


3. BS 476 - Fire tests on building materials and structures. This is a series of British Standards that covers various fire testing methods for different types of building materials.


These are just a few examples of flammability testing methods used for building materials. The specific test method to be employed depends on the type of material being analyzed and the regulatory requirements of the specific country or region. It's important to consult the relevant standards and guidelines when evaluating the flammability of building materials.
