Fire hazard testing - Part 11-20: Test flames - 500 W flame test methods

Fire hazard testing - Part 11-20: Test flames - 500 W flame test methods

Specifies a small-scale laboratory screening procedure for comparing the relative burning behaviour of specimens made from plastics and other non-metallic materials, as well as their resistance to burn-through when exposed to a flame ignition source of 500 W nominal power. This method is applicable to both solid materials and cellular plastic materials having an apparent density of 250 kg/m3 or greater when determined in accordance with ISO 845. It does not apply to thin materials that shrink away from the applied flame without igniting, for which ISO 9773 should be used. The test method described is intended to characterize material performance, for example for quality-control purposes, and is not intended to assess the behaviour to fire of building materials or furnishings. It may be used for the pre-selection of a material, provided that positive results are obtained at a thickness which equals the smallest thickness used in the application. The results obtained provide some information about the behaviour of plastic materials in service, but can never by themselves assure safe performance in service. This test method provides a classification system which may be used for quality assurance or the pre-selection of component materials of products. Has the status of a basic safety application in accordance with Guide 104.

Prüfungen zur Beurteilung der Brandgefahr - Teil 11-20: Prüfflammen - Prüfverfahren mit einer 500-W-Prüfflamme

Essais relatifs aux risques du feu - Partie 11-20: Flammes d'essai - Méthodes d'essai à la flamme de 500 W

Spécifie un mode opératoire de criblage à petite échelle en laboratoire pour comparer la réaction au feu relative d'éprouvettes faites de plastiques ou autres matériaux non métalliques ainsi que leur résistance au transpercement, lorsque ces éprouvettes sont exposées à une source d'allumage à flamme de puissance nominale 500 W. Cette méthode s'applique aux matériaux solides et aux matériaux plastiques alvéolaires ayant une masse volumique apparente supérieure ou égale à 250 kg/m3, déterminée conformément à l'ISO 845. Elle ne s'applique pas aux matériaux minces qui se rétractent devant la flamme appliquée sans s'allumer; pour ces matériaux il convient d'utiliser l'ISO 9773. La méthode d'essai décrite a pour but de caractériser la performance des matériaux, par exemple pour des besoins de contrôle de qualité, et n'a pas pour but d'évaluer le comportement au feu des matériaux de construction ou d'équipements installés dans les bâtiments. Cette méthode d'essai peut être utilisée pour la présélection d'un matériau, sous réserve que des résultats acceptables soient obtenus sur une épaisseur d'éprouvette égale à la plus petite épaisseur utilisée dans l'application. Les résultats obtenus fournissent des informations sur le comportement des matériaux plastiques en service, mais ne peuvent jamais par eux-mêmes assurer la sécurité en service. La présente méthode d'essai fournit un système de classification qui peut être utilisé pour l'assurance de qualité ou la présélection des matériaux constitutifs des produits. A le statut d'une publication fondamentale de sécurité conformément au Guide 104 de la CEI.

Fire hazard testing - Part 2-12: Glowing/hot-wire based test methods - Glow-wire flammability index (GWFI) test method for materials
SIST EN IEC 60695-2-12:2022

This part of IEC 60695 specifies the details of the glow-wire test to be applied to test specimens of solid electrical insulating materials or other solid materials for flammability testing to determine the glow-wire flammability index (GWFI). GWFI is the highest temperature, determined during this standardized procedure, at which the tested material does not ignite or, if it does, extinguishes within 30 s after removal of the glow-wire and is not totally consumed; and molten drips, if they occur, do not ignite the wrapping tissue. This test method is a materials test carried out on a series of standard test specimens. The data obtained, along with data from the glow-wire ignition temperature (GWIT) test method for materials, IEC 60695-2-13, can then be used in a preselection process in accordance with IEC 60695-1-30 [4] to judge the ability of materials to meet the requirements of IEC 60695-2-11. NOTE As an outcome of conducting a fire hazard assessment, an appropriate series of preselection flammability and ignition tests can allow a reduction of end product testing. This basic safety publication focusing on safety test method(s) is primarily intended for use by technical committees in the preparation of safety publications in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 104 and ISO/IEC Guide 51. One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of basic safety publications in the preparation of its publications.
