BS EN 367 80 kW/m2 Protective Clothing Heat Transmission Tester
Introduction:
A new term heat transfer index (HTI) has been introduced to avoid
confusion with the thermal protective index (TPI) or other terms
used in previous versions of this test. Heat transfer index is
calculated from the mean time in seconds to achieve a temperature
rise of 24±0.2℃ when testing by this method using a copper disc and
a starting temperature of 25±5℃. The heat transfer index provides a
method of grading materials which does not imply that the material
tested will give any precise protective time under actual use
conditions.
Standards:
ISO 9151——Protective clothing against heat and flame --
Determination of heat transmission on exposure to flame
BS EN 367——Protective clothing. Protection against heat and fire.
Method for determining heat transmission on exposure to flame
Features:
1. The apparatus is designed and manufactured according to EN 367
and ISO9151 standards.
2. The apparatus consists of the burner, the cover sheet and the
specimen holder with copper calorimeter.
3. The cover sheet and the specimen holder are controlled via
pneumatic transmission which is automatically controlled by
software.
4. A horizontally oriented test specimen subjected to an incident
heat flux of 80KW/m2 from the flame of a Meker burner beneath it.
5. The heat passing through the specimen is measured by means of a
small copper calorimeter on top of and contact with the specimen.
6. The time to record a temperature rise of 12 or 24℃ in the
calorimeter is recorded in seconds.
7. The calorimeter-cooling device shorten the test time.
8. The mean result for the three test specimens is calculated as
the HTI.
9. The calibration of heat flow density of 80 kW/m2 is performed
automatically by software.
