Introducing the TBB 913 Flooring Radiant Panel Tester, a cutting-edge test system designed to evaluate the fire reaction characteristics of various flooring products in accordance with rigorous standards.
Complying with both the European EN ISO 9239-1 standard using a propane burner and the American ASTM E648 standard using a methane burner as per EN 13501-1, this versatile equipment has become a crucial tool for gaining approval of flooring products in European countries.
With its ability to assess a wide array of flooring types, such as carpets, wood, cork, and plastic coverings, the TBB 913 provides comprehensive fire safety insights. The TBB 913 operates by simulating the potential stresses that a floor might encounter during a fire scenario, specifically in a corridor with a radiator.
It recreates the initial stages of fire development in an adjoining room or section, where flames and/or hot gases are likely to be present. This simulation offers valuable information about how different flooring materials react under fire conditions, aiding in the development of safer and more fire-resistant products.
The system comes equipped with user-friendly TBB software, enabling easy recording of essential measured data. This software not only facilitates real-time monitoring of measurement processes but also empowers users to save, export and log results in various formats.
In essence, the TBB 913 is an indispensable tool for flooring manufacturers, regulatory authorities and safety professionals. It provides a comprehensive and reliable method to assess the fire reaction of flooring products, ensuring they meet stringent safety standards.
