ISO 5659 ASTM E662 Plastic NBS Smoke Density Chamber Test Flame Test Equipment

ISO 5659 ASTM E 662 Plastic NBS Smoke Density Test Chamber Flame Tester

ISO 5659 NBS Plastic Smoke Density Tester Product Introduction:

The test method of the NBS smoke density test box originated from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST, formerly NBS) of the United States. It has now become an international test method widely used in many fields. It is suitable for the smoke density level assessment of products such as plastic products, rail transit non-metallic materials, ship non-metallic materials, and wires and cables. This method follows standards such as ASTM E662, ISO 5659-2, and NES 711. Compared with traditional building material smoke density test technology, it uses high-precision photomultiplier tubes as optical sensors, which can capture subtle changes in smoke concentration in the box in real time, significantly improving the accuracy and reliability of test results. In addition, through extended configuration (such as Dräger gas detection tube), it can meet the smoke toxicity testing needs of aviation materials; if combined with FTIR Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, it can also achieve qualitative and quantitative analysis of smoke components, providing more comprehensive data support for material safety performance evaluation. With its versatility and high sensitivity, this technology has become an important tool for modern flame retardant and fireproof material research.

ISO 5659 NBS Plastic Smoke Density Tester Standards:

• ASTM E 662 : Standard Test Method for Specific Optical Density of Smoke Generated by Solid Materials
• ISO 5659-2 : Plastics-Smoke generation -Part 2: Determination of optical density by a single-chamber test
• NES 711 : Determination of the Smoke Index of Products of combustion from Small Specimens of Material
