Bed Blanket Flammability Tester Test Operation
2024/12/31
The blanket flammability tester complies with the relevant test standards of ASTM D4151 and is used to test the flame-retardant properties of plush fabrics such as blankets. The sample and test paper mounted on the sample fixture is ignited with a standard flame for 1 second to complete the test. The sample is rated by observing the changes in the test paper.

Test principle:
Within the specified time, the surface of the sample is burned with a standardized flame, so as to observe the burning, damage, or discoloration of the standard test paper, and then the test fabric is graded.
Main parameters:
1. 18-gauge needle flame, adjustable flame length
2. Ignition time can be freely set, high degree of automation
3. Automatic timing, timing accuracy 0.1s
4. Flowmeter range: 0~60cc/min
5. Equipped with butane tank gas supply device, no need to equip large gas tanks or coal gas tanks
Items | Parameter |
Needle flame number | 18 |
Timer accuracy | 0.01s |
Dimensions | 370×218×510mm(W×H×D) |
Power supply | 220V, 50HZ,1.0A |

Operation steps:
1. Place the assembled and dried sample (sample fixture) on the sample rack.
Tip: If the sample has been pre-treated, the test operation should be started at this time. The standard stipulates that the test should be started within 30 seconds after the sample is taken out of the dryer.
2. Turn on the main power of the instrument to the on state. Set the ignition time to 1s on the timer and start the test.
Press the start button of the instrument to start the instrument, the burner will ignite, the flame impact will start, and the timer will start timing automatically. Test 5 samples (front or back) continuously, and conduct subsequent tests after the other 5 samples are dried.
Tip: Before the test, make sure that the sample has been correctly installed on the test stand and that the correct automatic flame impact time has been set to 1s.
As a modern technology enterprise integrating R&D, manufacturing, sales, training, and services, Standard Sales Group (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. is committed to delivering more testing instruments to the market, providing testing instruments for textiles, leather, combustion, automotive interior and exterior trims, material environmental climate aging, etc., and non-standard customization is also acceptable. Targeted tests can be carried out according to customer requirements before purchase to ensure that the purchased instruments are applicable.
