Testech , a leading innovator in precision material testing instruments, is pleased to announce the official release of its latest product line update: the ASTM6413 Vertical Flammability Tester (International Model).
Engineered to evaluate the vertical fire resistance and flame retardancy of various textiles, protective clothing materials, and camping equipment, the ASTM6413 delivers exceptional precision, compliance, and ease of operation for textile testing laboratories worldwide.
Comprehensive Multi-Standard Compliance
The new TTech-ASTM6413 is designed and manufactured to meet rigorous international flame-resistance testing standards, including:
1. ASTM D 6413 / D6413M-11: Standard Test Method for Flame Resistance of Textiles (Vertical Test)
2. CPAI-84: A Specification for Flame-Resistant Materials Used in Camping Tentage
3. GB/T 5455-1997: Textiles – Burning Behaviour – Determination of Flame Spread Properties (Vertical Direction)
4. ASTM F1358-2016: Standard Test Method for Effects of Flame on Materials for Protective Clothing Not Designed Primarily for Flame Resistance
Key Product Features & Highlights
To ensure high repeatability and accurate data collection, the ASTM6413 integrates premium components with user-friendly ergonomic design:
1. Durable Enclosure & Airflow Control: Features a high-quality painted cabinet with a transparent observation window and an upper steady-air cover to ensure controlled airflow during testing.
2. Precision Gas & Flame Control: Equipped with an imported Bunsen burner (10mm inner diameter), an imported precision needle valve, pressure gauges, and pressure-regulating valves to fine-tune flame heights accurately.
3. Automated Sliding Track System: The burner is mounted on a sliding track for smooth positioning. Pushing the burner into the test position automatically triggers the integrated timer.
4. Automated Timing & Digital Display: Offers automatic electronic ignition with programmable ignition timing (0 to 99.9 seconds). Continuous burning time and flame-retardant time are recorded automatically with high-precision digital display readout (0.1s precision).
5. Flexible Configurations: Features a push-and-pull specimen fixture design with multiple specimen holder options available to accommodate diverse material types.
