SL-FL67 Wire and Cable Heat Release Test Device
DIN EN 50399：2017 Wire and Cable Heat Release Test Device with Stainless Steel Two-Way Speed Probe
Product introduction of the Wire and Cable Heat Release Test Device
EN 50399 specifies the apparatus and methods of test for the assessment of vertical flame spread, heat release and smoke production of vertically-mounted bunched wires or cables, electrical or optical, under defined conditions. EN 50399 details the apparatus and the arrangement and calibration of the instrumentation to be installed in order to measure the heat release and the smoke production during the fire test. Test procedures to be used for type approval testing for classification of cables in Euroclasses B1ca, B2ca, Cca and Dca are given.

9. Standard stainless steel ladder dimensions: 800(W) ×3, 500(H).
10. Two sets of standard propane burner and venturi mixtures.
11. Follow the standard category can program for select a test.
12. Exhaust system consists of smoke collection hood,exhaust duct, air inlet system, Centrifugal fan and frequency converter.
13. The duct section houses all gas sampling probes, temperature and mass flow probes and has ports for the smoke measuring system.
14. Paramagnetic oxygen analyzer, using the method of paramagnetic change to measure the concentration of oxygen in the gas. Concentration range of 0-25%.
15. Carbon Dioxide Analyser (infrared) for use in heat release measurement. Concentration range of 0-10%.
16. Soot filter, cold trap, drying column, pump and waste regulators for conditioning the sample gases prior to analysis.
17. Dataacquisition system and software.

Application：The test system is a medium-scale fire test simulating bundled cable or fiber optic cable. The test cable is installed on a vertical standard steel ladder and ignited by a specified ignition source to evaluate the combustion behavior and combustion performance of the cable. Combustion performance data for the early stages of a cable fire,
The test of the heat release rate reflects the danger of the flame spreading along the cable and the potential impact of the fire source on the adjacent area. The smoke density test shows the visibility of the fire area and the danger of the smoke to the personal safety.
Product Details of the Wire and Cable Heat Release Test Device
EN 50399 Test apparatus is consist of IEC 60332-3 apparatus, heat release measurement, smoke density measurement and modified air inlet system. This is accomplished by fitting a small instrumented section of ducting into the exhaust system of the rig and using this with associated gas analysis instrumentation and software. The duct section houses all gas sampling probes, temperature and mass flow probes and has ports for the smoke measuring system.
The test can obtain the following characteristics of the cable or cable under certain combustion conditions:
Flame spread Flame Spread FS
Heat Release Rate Heat Release Rate HRR
Total heat release Total Heat Release THR
Smoke production rate Smoke Production Rate SPR
Total smoke production Total Smoke Production TSP
