propane gas nozzles and their accompanying flow meters and Venturi
mixers. The fire supply surface should be a flat metal plate
drilled with 242 holes with a diameter of 1.32mm, with a center
distance of 3.2mm. These holes are arranged in three staggered
rows, with 81, 80, and 81 in each row, distributed in a nominal
size of within a range of 257×4.5mm. In addition, a row of small
holes are opened on both sides of the flamethrower, which can
maintain stable combustion of the flame. Each spray lamp should be
equipped with accurate devices to control the flow rate of propane
and air. Rotary flow meter or mass flow meter can be used
2. The ignition source position nozzle should be placed
horizontally, (75±5)mm away from the front surface of the cable
specimen, (600±5)mm away from the bottom of the test box, and
symmetrical with the axis of the steel ladder. The ignition point
of the spray lamp should be located at the center between the two
horizontal bars of the steel ladder, and at least 500mm away from
the lower end of the sample.

Smoke and dust collection tower Schematic diagram
Smoke dust removal tower: mainly used for generating smoke during
the experimental process. The gas emitted after being treated by
the smoke dust removal tower meets environmental protection
requirements.
Material: The entire body of the washing tower is made of PP
material, and there are no metal components in the system, which
has extremely high acid and alkali resistance and corrosion
resistance;
Circulating liquid layer: It can be filled with tap water or
detergent, which has a better effect. In order to prevent the
discharge of waste from corroding the bottom of the washing tower;
Air layer: the exhaust gas that needs to be treated emitted during
production or experimental processes, connected to the air inlet to
facilitate the entry of waste into the air layer;
Filling layer: The filling material for the washing tower is a sea
urchin shaped mesoporous ball made of PP material, with a multi
tooth TELLERTT shape. The surface of the filling layer has a window
for easy cleaning of the small balls inside the filling layer. The
main function of the filling layer is to disperse the exhaust gas
in the air layer, making it a dispersed waste, in order to fully
clean the exhaust gas in the spray layer;
Spray layer: The sprinkler head in the spray layer adopts a PP120
degree rotating non clogging sprinkler head, covering an area of
95%. The spray layer has an independent window for checking the
working condition of the sprinkler head;
Anti fog layer: It can effectively filter impurities in the air and
also prevent water mist crystals in the exhaust gas from corroding
the inner wall of the washing tower;
Circulating pump: The circulating pump circulates the liquid in the
circulating liquid layer through the sprinkler head, saving water.
External dimensions: 1500 (W)×1000 (D)×3000 (H) mm;
Power supply: AC 380V three-phase, 50/60Hz, 10A.
