Textiles - Burning behaviour of materials for marquees, large tents and related products - Ease of ignition

This standard specifies a test method for the burning behaviour of industrial and technical textiles used for tarpaulins, large tents, marquees, related structures, airducts, etc.
It is not intended to apply to materials used for small camping tents, lining materials nor any other internal features, nor to awnings.
This standard is not suitable for the linings used inside large tents and marquees.
NOTE    Information on the reproducibility and repeatability of the method will be introduced later.

Textilien - Brennverhalten von Materialien für Überdachungen, große Zelte und entsprechende Erzeugnisse - Entzündbarkeit

Diese Norm legt ein Prüfverfahren für die Bestimmung des Brennverhaltens von industriellen und technischen Textilien fest, die für Planen, Zelte, Überdachungen, Zubehör, Luftkanäle usw. verwendet werden.
Die Norm gilt nicht für Materialien, die für kleine ?Campingzelte" verwendet werden; sie gilt auch nicht für Materialien, die für Innenzelte, sonstige Innenausstattung oder Vorzelte verwendet werden.
Diese Norm ist nicht für die Auskleidungen in großen Zelten und Überdachungen geeignet.
ANMERKUNG   Informationen zur Reproduzierbarkeit und Wiederholbarkeit des Verfahrens werden später vorgestellt.

Textiles - Comportement au feu des marquises, tentes de grandes dimensions et produits apparentés - Allumabilité

La présente norme spécifie une méthode d'essai pour le comportement au feu des textiles industriels et techniques, utilisés pour les bâches, les tentes de grandes dimensions, les marquises, les structures apparentées, les conduits d'air, etc..
Elle ne s'applique pas aux matériaux utilisés pour les petites "tentes de camping", aux matériaux de doublures ou autres caractéristiques internes et aux auvents.
La présente norme n'est pas appropriée aux doublures internes utilisées pour les tentes de grandes dimensions et les marquises.
NOTE   Les informations sur la reproductibilité et la répétabilité de la présente méthode seront introduites ultérieurement.

1 mm.5.1Test apparatus for example as shown in Figures 1 to 5 with additional data given in subsequent detailscomprising:5.1.1A metal structure, consisting basically of a solid baseplate and two uprights acting as slides for thearrangement supporting the test specimen. The vertical rectangular face of this support, which is positionedopposite the heater, measures nominally 130 mm wide and 100 mm high. The test specimen support arms form anangle of 30° with the horizontal.5.1.2A 500 W electric heater, comprising:5.1.2.1 A ceramic body1 with the following dimensions:- height130 mm- inside diameter at the top31 mm- outside diameter close to the top59 mm- outside diameter at mid-height62 mm- outside diameter 30 mm from base65 mm- outside diameter of enlarged base93,5 mm5.1.2.2 A ceramic removable sleeve1. This sleeve is 130 mm high and approximately 3 mm thick and is locatedwithin the ceramic body described in 5.1.2.1. It is provided with a 500 W heating element. On the outside surface ithas eight vertical projections approximately 3 mm thick. Inside, a metal strip component is used to stabilize the airtemperature.5.1.2.3 A metal base, approximately 160 mm in diameter and 30 mm high, provides a three point fixing for theceramic body (see 5.1.2.1) and the sleeve (5.1.2.2), the latter entering 5 mm into the metal base. This fixing isdesigned so that the assembly is eccentric and the minimum horizontal distance from its base to the edge of themetal base is 5 mm. Eight holes 10 mm diameter are provided in the vertical cylindrical part of the metal base toserve as an inlet for the air which, after having circulated within the heater, issues from its upper part.5.1.3Fresh air flow adjuster plate, comprising a plate of non-combustible material1, 310 mm long, 210 mm wide,8 mm thick, with insulating values of:- thermal conductivity

EN 14115:2001 (E)6This plate has a hole suitable for the heater to pass through and, in the centre of its small side, a rectangular slot125 mm long and 10 mm wide. The adjuster plate is positioned horizontally 90 mm below the upper edge of theheater so that it is in contact with the side of the metal frame (5.1.1) to leave an opening area of 1250 mm2 for thefresh air to pass through.In addition, the plate protects the base of the heater from any contamination due to combustion of the materials.5.1.4Test specimen support grid, comprising a fram
