Flammability Tester
For International Flammability Regulations
SDL Atlas offers a wide range of instruments to meet flammability testing needs and has experts ready to assist with choosing the correct instrument, accessories, and test materials necessary for precise, standard compliant flammability testing.
AutoFlamm Flammability Tester
The AutoFlamm Flammability Tester meets the needs of those testing general apparel fabrics and vertically oriented fabrics to European standards. These include home textiles such as curtains or drapes, bedding, table clothes and other items that hang down from furniture.
As each standard calls for a variety of different accessories, burners and configurations, these are quoted optionally as required. The Optional Radiator Assembly for testing curtains and drapes is designed for testing to the EN 13772 standard. All test results are included in test reports which are uploaded directly to the computer connected via either USB or Bluetooth.
Vertical Flammability Tester
The Vertical Flammability Tester was designed for measuring the vertical flame spread for children’s sleepwear, fabrics, other textiles, or resilient filling materials used in upholstered furniture. The instrument comprises a draft free stainless steel cabinet with glass observation
panel window and back wall painted black for easy test viewing.
Designed to meet international standards including: ASTM, CFR, GB and California TB, the Vertical Flammability Chamber meets all major USA flammability regulations for testing fabric flammability. Optional Automatic Gas Control system including solenoid control gas valve and automatic ignition timer and controls.
The instrument has a separate enclosure for manual gas controls that is located away from the flame chamber.
45° Automatic Flammability Tester
Used to determine the burning characteristics of textiles under controlled conditions, the 45° Automatic Flammability Chamber automatically times the flame spread in 0.1 second increments from ignition. The time starts when the flame impinges and stops when
the sample’s trigger string burns through. The flame burns at a 45° angle under controlled flame-impingement at the tip of a stainless steel hypodermic needle with automatic flame impingement times of 1, 5 or 20 seconds available.
