Materials Flame Retardant Fire Test FAR25.853 - Flame Penetration Test

FAR25.853 Flame Penetration Test-Introduction

This test uses a kerosene burner to directly ignite the lining material placed on the steel angle.

FAR25.853 flame penetration test - test method

The test includes ceilings and side panels, and the test pieces are installed vertically or horizontally on steel angles. The ignition source is a kerosene burner, which applies flame.

Test the following items:

- Whether there is flame penetration

- temperature rise

Material flame retardant testing, fire testing – other relevant standards

standard: ABD 0031 - airbus fire testing – flame, smoke and toxicity
