Aerospace series - Burning behaviour of non-metallic materials under the influence of radiating heat and flames - Determination of smoke density and gas components in the smoke of materials - Test equipment apparatus and media

This standard defines the test equipment, apparatus and media required for determination of the smoke density according to EN 2825 and the concentration of the gas components in the smoke according to EN 2826 due to pyrolitic decomposition of solid materials and composite materials of up to 25 mm in thickness under the influence of radiant heat only or with simultaneous flame application.
This test method applies exclusively to materials whose specific standard requires this type of test. It cannot be substituted for the statutory tests required for a final specific use of the material concerned.
NOTE   The smoke gas density and the gas components in the smoke are determined according to the specific environmental and test conditions defined in this standard, in EN 2825 and EN 2826. No studies have been made up to now to determine whether the results can be transferred to differing conditions, particularly to actual fire conditions. The inhalatory toxical risk and irritancy affect cannot be assessed by merely measuring the concentration of individual gas components in the smoke.

Série aérospatiale - Comportement au feu des matériaux non-métalliques sous l'action de chaleur rayonnante et de flammes - Détermination de la densité de fumée et des composants des gaz de fumée des matériaux - Équipement, appareils et moyens d'essai

Cette Norme européenne définit les équipements, les appareils et les moyens d’essai requis pour déterminer la densité de fumée selon l’EN 2825 et la concentration des composants des gaz de fumée selon l’EN 2826 due à la décomposition pyrolytique des matériaux solides et des matériaux composites jusqu’à une épaisseur de 25 mm sous l’action de la chaleur rayonnante uniquement ou avec application simultanée de flamme.
La présente méthode d’essai s’applique exclusivement aux matériaux dont la norme spécifique exige ce type d’essais. Elle ne peut être remplacée par des essais réglementaires exigés pour une utilisation spécifique finale du matériau concerné.
NOTE   La densité des gaz de fumée et des composants de gaz de fumée sont déterminés selon les conditions d’environnement et d’essai spécifiques définis dans la présente norme, dans l’EN 2825 et l’EN 2826. Aucune étude n’a été menée jusqu’à présent pour déterminer si les résultats peuvent être transposés à des conditions différentes, en particulier aux conditions de feu réelles. Le risque toxique d’inhalation et l’effet d’irritation ne peuvent être évalués par le simple fait de mesurer la concentration des composants de gaz de fumée individuels.

Aeronavtika - Gorljivost nekovinskih materialov pod vplivom sevalne toplote in plamena - Določevanje gostote dima in plinskih komponent materialov - Naprave in sredstva za preskušanje

Ta standard opredeljuje preskusno opremo, naprave in sredstva, ki so potrebni za ugotavljanje gostote dima v skladu z EN 2825 in koncentracije plinskih komponent v dimu v skladu z EN 2826 zaradi pirolitske razgradnje trdnih materialov in kompozitnih materialov debeline do 25 mm samo pod vplivom žarčenja toplote ali s hkratno uporabo ognja.
Ta preskusna metoda velja izključno za materiale, pri katerih specifični standardi zahtevajo uporabo tovrstnega preskusa. Ne morejo ga nadomestiti zakonsko določeni preskusi, potrebni za končno konkretno uporabo zadevnega materiala.
OPOMBA:   Gostota plina v dimu in plinske komponente v dimu se določajo v skladu s specifičnimi okoljskimi in preskusnimi pogoji, opredeljenimi v tem standardu, v EN 2825 in EN 2826. Do zdaj še niso bile opravljene raziskave, s katerimi bi določili, ali se rezultati lahko prenesejo v drugačne razmere, predvsem v dejanske požarne razmere. Toksičnega tveganja ob vdihavanju in učinka razdraženosti ni mogoče oceniti le z merjenjem koncentracije posameznih plinskih komponent v dimu.

1 Scope
This European Standard defines the test equipment, apparatus and media required for determination of the
smoke density according to EN 2825 and the concentration of the gas components in the smoke according to
EN 2826 due to pyrolitic decomposition of solid materials and composite materials of up to 25 mm in thickness
under the influence of radiant heat only or with simultaneous flame application.
This test method applies exclusively to materials whose specific standard requires this type of test. It cannot
be substituted for the statutory tests required for a final specific use of the material concerned.
NOTE The smoke gas density and the gas components in the smoke are determined according to the specific
environmental and test conditions defined in this standard, in EN 2825 and EN 2826. No studies have been made up to
now to determine whether the results can be transferred to differing conditions, particularly to actual fire conditions. The
inhalatory toxical risk and irritancy affect cannot be assessed by merely measuring the concentration of individual gas
components in the smoke.

3 Apparatus
3.1 General
The test equipment comprises the test chamber described in 3.2, incorporating the devices specified in 3.3 to
3.9, as well as the ancillary equipment as detailed in 3.10 to 3.17.
3.2 Test chamber
See Figure 1.
The test chamber shall be designed to provide inside dimensions of (914 × 610 × 914) mm ± 3 mm for width,
depth, and height respectively. The interior surfaces shall consist of porcelain-enamelled metal or equivalent
coated metal resistant to chemical attack and corrosion, and suitable for cleaning. Panels of 10 mm thickness
of porcelain-enamelled steel (interior surface) laminated to a heat-resistant core and backed with corrosion-
resistant steel (exterior surface) have been found suitable. Sealed windows shall be provided to accomodate a
vertical photometric system. All other chamber penetrations shall also be sealed. When all openings are
closed, the chamber shall be capable of developing and maintaining positive pressure during the test period.
In order to avoid an excessive increase of pressure in the chamber during testing an airtight safety disc is
required, e. g. a sheet of aluminium foil of thickness not greater than 0,04 mm and a minimum area of 800 cm
shall be provided in an opening of the chamber floor.
3.3 Radiant heat furnace
See Figure 2.
The furnace shall be located according to Figure 3 equidistant from the front and back of the test chamber.
The furnace control system shall maintain the required irradiance level of (25,0 ± 0,5) kW/m on the specimen
surface for 20 min under steady-state conditions with the chamber door closed (to be demonstrated in
calibration). The control system shall consist of a variable transformer or an equivalent control device, and a
voltmeter or other means for monitoring the electrical input. Where line voltage fluctuations exceed ± 2,5 %, a
constant-voltage transformer is required to maintain the prescribed irradiance level.
3.4 Specimen holder
Stops have to be provided to center the specimen accurately in front of the furnace.
Figure 4 shows the construction of the holder. Two wires have to be placed in front of the specimen.
3.5 Photometric system
3.5.1 The photometric system shall conform to Figure 5. The light path shall be oriented vertically to reduce
influences resulting from stratification of the smoke generated by materials under test. The system shall
conform to 3.5.2 to 3.5.4.
3.5.2 The light source shall be a 6 V incandescent lamp, operated at a fixed voltage to provide a brightness
temperature of (2 200 ± 100) K. The light source shall be located in a sealed and light-tight box. This box shall
contain the necessary optics to provide a collimated light beam of about 50 mm diameter passing vertically
through the chamber.
-9
3.5.3 A photomultiplier with a spectral sensitivity rating of S-4 and a dark current of less than 10 A shall be
used. For amplification, a multirange amplifier shall be used, suitable to measure continuously the relative light
intensity in percentage transmission over at least five orders of magnitude. The system shall have a linear
response with respect to transmittance and an accuracy
