(Main)Aerospace series - Burning behaviour of non metallic materials under the influence of radiating heat and flames - Determination of gas components in the smoke
Aerospace series - Burning behaviour of non metallic materials under the influence of radiating heat and flames - Determination of gas components in the smoke
This European Standard defines a test method to determine the concentration of certain gas components due to pyrolitic decomposition of solid materials and composite materials under the influence of radiant heat only or with simultaneous flame application.
NOTE 1 The gas components in the smoke are determined according to the specific environmental and test conditions defined in EN 2824 and this standard. No studies have been made up to now to determine whether the results can be transferred to different conditions, particularly to actual fire conditions. The inhalatory toxical risk and irritancy affect cannot be assessed by merely measuring the concentration of individual gas components in the smoke.
NOTE 2 The burning behaviour and consequently the gas components in the smoke of aerospace materials are not only influenced by the type of material but also to a large extent by the configuration, the specific surface and mass, the combination with other materials, the means of joining as well as the processing technique.
NOTE 3 These influences shall be taken into account in the preparation of tests, the selection of test specimens and the interpretation of test results.
Luft- und Raumfahrt - Brandverhalten nichtmetallischer Werkstoffe unter Einwirkung von strahlender Wärme und Flammen - Bestimmung von Rauchgaskomponenten
Diese Norm legt ein Prüfverfahren zur Bestimmung der Konzentration gewisser Gasanteile durch pyrolytische Zersetzung von Feststoffen und Verbundmaterialien unter der Einwirkung von Wärmestrahlung allein oder bei gleichzeitiger Flammeinwirkung fest.
ANMERKUNG 1 Die Rauchgaskomponenten werden entsprechend den in EN 2824 und dieser Norm festgelegten, spezifischen Umgebungs- und Prüfbedingungen bestimmt. Bisher liegen keine Untersuchungen dazu vor, ob sich die Ergebnisse auf andere Bedingungen übertragen lassen, insbesondere auf den tatsächlichen Brandfall. Das toxische Risiko bei Inhalation oder die Reizwirkung können nicht allein durch Messung der Konzentration einzelner Rauchgaskomponenten bestimmt werden.
ANMERKUNG 2 Das Brandverhalten und folglich die Rauchgaskomponenten von Werkstoffen in der Luft- und Raumfahrt werden nicht allein durch den Werkstofftyp bestimmt, sondern in hohem Maße auch durch die Konfiguration, die spezifische Oberfläche und Masse, die Kombination mit anderen Werkstoffen, das Fügeverfahren sowie die Verarbeitungsmethode.
ANMERKUNG 3 Diese Einflüsse müssen bei der Vorbereitung der Prüfungen, der Auswahl der Prüflinge und der Interpretation der Prüfergebnisse in Betracht gezogen werden.
Série aérospatiale - Comportement au feu des matériaux non métalliques sous l'action de chaleur rayonnante et de flammes - Détermination des composants de gaz de fumée
Cette Norme européenne définit une méthode d’essai pour déterminer la concentration de certains composants de gaz dus à la décomposition pyrolytique de matériaux solides et de matériaux composites sous l’action de chaleur rayonnante uniquement ou avec application simultanée de flammes.
NOTE 1 Les composants de gaz de fumée sont déterminés selon les conditions d’essai et d’environnement spécifiques dans l’EN 2824 et la présente norme. Aucune étude n’a été menée jusqu’à présent pour déterminer si les résultats peuvent être transposés à des conditions différentes, en particulier aux conditions de feu réelles. L'incidence concernant le risque et l’irritation toxiques par inhalation ne peut être évaluée par simple mesure de la concentration des composants individuels de gaz de fumée.
NOTE 2 Le comportement de la combustion et donc des composants de gaz de fumée des matériaux aérospatiaux ne sont pas seulement influencés par le type de matériau mais encore, dans une grande mesure, par la configuration, la surface et la masse spécifiques, la combinaison avec d'autres matériaux, les moyens de soudage ainsi que la technique de traitement.
NOTE 3 Ces influences doivent être prises en considération lors de la préparation des essais, du choix des éprouvettes et de l'interprétation des résultats d'essai.

1 Scope
This European Standard defines a test method to determine the concentration of certain gas components due
to pyrolitic decomposition of solid materials and composite materials under the influence of radiant heat only
or with simultaneous flame application.
NOTE 1 The gas components in the smoke are determined according to the specific environmental and test conditions
defined in EN 2824 and this standard. No studies have been made up to now to determine whether the results can be
transferred to different conditions, particularly to actual fire conditions. The inhalatory toxical risk and irritancy affect cannot
be assessed by merely measuring the concentration of individual gas components in the smoke.
NOTE 2 The burning behaviour and consequently the gas components in the smoke of aerospace materials are not
only influenced by the type of material but also to a large extent by the configuration, the specific surface and mass, the
combination with other materials, the means of joining as well as the processing technique.
NOTE 3 These influences shall be taken into account in the preparation of tests, the selection of test specimens and
the interpretation of test results.

3 Short description of the test method
3.1 General
The specimens are vertically arranged in a closed test chamber according to EN 2824 and subjected to
decomposition by radiant heat with or without flame application. During the test, gas samples are taken at
specified intervals from the generated decomposition products to determine the concentration of selected
components.
The methods described in 3.2 and 3.4 are used to determine the gas components in the smoke.
3.2 The hydrogen chloride (HCl) taken from the test chamber can be indicated directly during the test using
colorimetric tubes or analyzed by wet analysis.
3.3 Hydrogen fluoride (HF) is measured by wet analysis.
3.4 For determination of other gases, the fumes are collected in a plastic bag with a high gas-isolation
value; they can be measured consecutively using colorimetric tubes.

A = indicates that the method is used to test a material in the Flaming mode only.
B = indicates that the method is used to test a material in both the Flaming mode
and the Norm-Flaming mode.
6 Test equipment
Testing shall be carried out in a test chamber according to EN 2824.
7 Specimens
7.1 Number of specimens
According to EN 2824.
7.2 Conditioning
According to EN 2824.
7.3 Dimensions and shape of specimens
According to EN 2824.
7.4 Specimen mounting
According to EN 2824.
8 Procedure
The specimens conditioned according to EN 2824 are tested in line with the requirements of EN 2825, Clause
8; gas samples are taken according to Clauses 8 and 10. Testing may be carried out concurrently to the
determination of the smoke density according to EN 2825. When the specimens are being examined for gas
components in the smoke only, the requirements specified for the adjustment of the optical system are not
applicable.
9 Gas sampling and analysis
9.1 General
The gas-sampling test set-up shall conform to EN 2824, Figure 9.
Unless otherwise specified, gas sampling shall be started at 4 min. If gas samples are taken during the
measurement of smoke, the smoke measurement values may be affected.
The point of time indicated for the measurement means the beginning of the measurement, i. e. of the gas
sampling. If the sampling period exceeds 40 s, this shall be noted separately in the test report.
9.2 Sampling by means of plastic bags
The sampling by means of plastic bags shall be carried out according to EN 2824, Figure 9.
Before starting the test, the sampling bag shall be evacuated.
The bag is introduced into the vacuum chamber and then connected to the quick release coupling on the
cover. The shut-off valve on the bag is opened and the tubing between test chamber and plastic sampling bag
is evacuated. Then the vacuum chamber is evacuated to a pressure of 500 hPa.
The sample is introduced into the test chamber and tested according to EN 2825. The chamber shut-off valve
and the valve of the vacuum chamber are opened at the time required for starting the gas measurement. After
filling of the bag, both supply line valves shall be closed. The vacuum chamber shall be ventilated by means of

valve 2 . The shut-off valve 4 near the gas bag is closed, the bag is closed and disconnected from the
cover. The measuring of the gases contained i
