Conveyor belts - Fire simulation flammability testing - Part 1: Propane burner tests

This part of EN 12881 describes three methods for measuring the propagation of a flame along a conveyor belt which has been exposed to a relatively high localised heat source such as a fire. The damage suffered by the conveyor belt, as well as its tendency to support combustion, are measured by observing the extent to which the fire spreads along the test piece.
Method A uses a test piece 2 m in length and consumes propane gas through the burner at the rate of (1,30 ± 0,05) kg per 10 min.
Method B uses a test piece 2,5 m in length and consumes propane gas through two burners mounted above and below the test piece trestle at the rate of (1,30 ± 0,05) kg per 10 min for each burner.
Method C uses a test piece 1,5 m in length and consumes propane gas through the burner at the rate of (565 ± 10) g per 50 min.

Fördergurte - Brandtechnische Prüfungen - Teil 1: Prüfungen mit dem Propanbrenner

Dieser Teil der EN 12881 legt drei Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Ausbreitung einer Flamme entlang eines Fördergurtes fest, der einer örtlichen Wärmequelle, wie Feuer, ausgesetzt war. Es wird sowohl die Beschädigung des Fördergurtes gemessen als auch seine Neigung, die Verbrennung zu unterstützen, wobei das Fortschreiten der Flamme entlang des Probekörpers beobachtet wird.
Für Verfahren A wird ein 2 m langer Probekörper verwendet, wobei der Propangasverbrauch des Brenners (1,30  0,05) kg in 10 min beträgt.
Für Verfahren B wird ein 2,5 m langer Probekörper verwendet, wobei der Propangasverbrauch von zwei Brennern, die über und unter dem Gestell mit dem Probekörper montiert sind, (1,30  0,05) kg in 10 min für jeden Brenner beträgt.
Für Verfahren C wird ein 1,5 m langer Probekörper verwendet, wobei der Propangasverbrauch des Brenners  (565  10) g in 50 min beträgt.

Courroies transporteuses - Essais de simulation d'inflammation - Partie 1: Essais avec brûleur propane

La présente partie de l’EN 12881 décrit trois méthodes de mesurage de la propagation d’une flamme sur une courroie transporteuse qui a été exposée à une source de chaleur localisée relativement élevée, comme par exemple un feu. On mesure la détérioration de la courroie transporteuse, ainsi que sa tendance à entretenir la combustion, en observant le degré de propagation du feu sur l’éprouvette. La méthode A utilise une éprouvette de 2 m de long et consomme du gaz propane à l’aide d’un brûleur, à raison de (1,30 ± 0,05) kg par 10 min. La méthode B utilise une éprouvette de 2,5 m de long et consomme du gaz propane à l’aide de deux brûleurs installés au-dessus et au-dessous du support d’éprouvette à raison de (1,30 ± 0,05) kg par 10 min pour chaque brûleur. La méthode C utilise une éprouvette de 1,5 m de long et consomme du gaz propane à l’aide d’un brûleur, à raison de (565 ± 10) g par 50 min.

It is therefore essential to conduct the tests with caution, having due regard to health and safety considerations and to terminate any test immediately if at any time it is considered advisable to do so.
In this regard it is recommended that no test should be supervised by only one person.

Before and during the test, immerse each gas cylinder to approximately two-thirds of its height in a bath of water at a temperature of (25 ± 3) °C. Ensure that each gas cylinder is not emptied at the end of a test by more than 90 % of its gas mass capacity.
