Analysis of the role and importance of combustion testers
2023/03/09
A combustion tester is a common piece of testing equipment used to test the combustion properties and flame retardant properties of materials. It is widely used in industries such as construction, automotive, electronics and textiles. This article will introduce the working principle, classification, application and future development direction of combustion testers.
I. Working Principle
The working principle of the combustion tester is to use sensors to measure the heat of combustion, heat release rate, smoke generation rate and other parameters of the material, and then process the data through the computer program to obtain the combustion performance and flame retardant properties of the material. The test is carried out by placing the material to be tested into the test chamber, then igniting the material, collecting the data through the sensor and then processing the data through the software to produce the final test results.

II. Classification
Depending on the purpose of the test and the test standard, combustion testers can be divided into various types. Common combustion testers are
1. Single combustion tester: used to test the combustion performance and heat release rate of materials.
2. Vertical combustion tester: used to test the vertical combustion performance and heat release rate of the material.
3. Horizontal combustion tester: used to test the horizontal combustion performance and heat release rate of the material.
4. Wire and cable combustion tester: used to test the combustion performance of wires and cables.
5. Building material combustion tester: used to test the combustion performance and flame retardant properties of building materials.
III. Applications
Combustion testers are widely used in construction, automotive, electronics, textile and other industries. Mainly used in the following areas.
1. Construction industry: used to test the burning performance and flame retardant properties of construction materials to ensure the safety of buildings.
2. Automotive industry: used to test the combustion performance of automotive interior materials to ensure the safety of passengers in the car.
3. Electronics industry: used to test the combustion performance of electronic products, to ensure the safety of electronic products.
4. Textile industry: used to test the combustion performance and flame retardant properties of textiles to ensure the safety of textiles.
IV. Future development direction
With the development of society and technological progress, the combustion tester is also constantly updated and iterated. The future combustion tester will have the following characteristics.
1. Intelligent: The combustion tester will have automatic and intelligent features, which can automatically process data and reduce manual intervention.
2. Real-time monitoring: The combustion tester will have a real-time monitoring function, so that the combustion of the material can be monitored at any time and problems can be detected in time.
3. High efficiency: The combustion tester will have high efficiency, faster testing speed and more accurate test results.
4. Multi-functionality: The combustion tester will be multi-functional and can test multiple parameters at the same time to meet multiple testing needs.
In short, the combustion tester is a very important test equipment, which has a very important role in ensuring the safety of materials. In the future, the combustion tester will be more intelligent, efficient and multi-functional, which will better serve the society and promote the development of the industry.
