Flame Retardant Tester For Wire & Cable Insulation

What is the Flame Retardant Tester For Wire & Cable Insulation？

The Flame Retardant Tester for Wire & Cable Insulation is specialized equipment used to assess the flame resistance of insulation materials on wires and cables. This apparatus subjects samples to a controlled flame source, evaluating parameters such as ignition time, flame spread, and self-extinguishing capabilities. It is suitable for wire and cable insulation flame resistance test.Vertical test: place the specimen on the top of the flame, burn for 15 seconds, extinguish for 15 seconds, repeat 5 times and check the burning condition of the specimen. The burning, extinguishing time and repetition times can be set, and automatic operation can be performed.
