Wire & Cable Fire Resistance Tester QualiFlame-CFRT
Wire & Cable Fire Resistance Tester QualiFlame-CFRT is designed to assess a cable’s ability to maintain circuit integrity when exposed to fire under specified conditions. These conditions typically involve a propane gas flame at temperatures ranging from 650 to 950 degrees, with or without additional factors such as mechanical impact or water spray.
The fire resistance test standards include, but are not limited to, EN 50200, IEC 60331, BS 6387, BS 8491, BS 8434, and SS 299.
