Advanced Testing for Protective Clothing Against Molten Metal Splashes
QualiMMS™ 9150 Molten Metal Splash Impact Tester is a precision instrument designed to evaluate the resistance of protective clothing materials to molten metal splash exposure. Fully compliant with ISO 9150 and EN 348 standards, this testing system is essential for manufacturers and laboratories involved in developing and certifying heat- and flame-resistant personal protective equipment (PPE), especially for use in foundries, welding, metal casting, and similar high-temperature environments.
This apparatus simulates real-world conditions by delivering controlled molten metal droplets (typically iron or aluminum) onto fabric samples mounted at a fixed angle. The test evaluates the material’s behavior upon contact with molten metal—measuring parameters such as hole formation, ignition, sticking, and degradation—providing a critical benchmark for material safety performance.
Applications
- Testing of heat- and flame-resistant fabrics for foundry and metalworking industries
- Compliance validation for personal protective equipment (PPE)
- Research and development of high-performance protective textiles
- Certification and quality control for safety apparel manufacturers
