Smoke Density Tester ASTM D2843

Smoke Density Tester,in accordance with ASTM D2843, is an experimental device used to evaluate the density of smoke produced by materials under fire conditions. 


Purpose:

The main purpose of the Smoke Density Tester is to measure the density of smoke produced by a material during combustion in order to assess its smoke production and dispersion under fire conditions.

Structure:

A smoke density tester usually consists of the following parts:

1.Combustion Chamber: An enclosed space that holds the material to be tested and simulates fire conditions.

2.Smoke Collector: Used to collect smoke from the combustion process and introduce it into the measurement system.

3.Optical Measurement System: Used to measure the optical density of the smoke, usually using a photodiode or photoelectric sensor to detect the intensity of light passing through the smoke.


Test Procedure:

1.Sample Preparation: The material to be tested is placed in the test combustion chamber and prepared according to the requirements in the ASTM D2843 standard.

2.Ignition Test: Under conditions that meet the standard, the material to be tested is ignited and the smoke produced during the combustion process is observed and recorded.

3.Smoke Density Measurement: The density of the smoke is measured using an optical measuring system, and the optical density values of the smoke at different points in time are recorded.


Test Parameters:

Parameters typically considered for smoke density testers include:

1.Smoke Density: The concentration of particulate matter in smoke, usually expressed as optical density.

2.Smoke Generation Rate : the amount of smoke produced per unit of time, reflecting the rate at which the combustion of the material produces smoke.


Applications:

Smoke density testers are commonly used in various fields such as construction, aerospace, and electronics to evaluate the amount of smoke produced and the degree of material diffusion during fire-related situations. This information is used to develop effective fire safety designs and protective measures..


Advantages:

The smoke density tester has the following advantages:

  • Accuracy: the use of optical measurement system, can accurately measure the optical density of smoke, providing reliable test data.

  • Repeatability: The test process is standardised to provide repeatable test results, which facilitates comparison of the smoke generation properties of different materials.


Scope of application:

It is suitable for the determination of static smoke production when building materials and their products are burned, and can also be used for the determination of static smoke production when other solid materials are burned.

 

Compliant standards:

Comply with ASTM D2843 standard requirement.


 Main parameters:

Gas source: 95% propane gas, or coal gas of equivalent purity (prepared by the customer);

Burning lamp: Bunsen burner, length 260mm, nozzle diameter 0.13mm, 45° angle with the smoke box;
