  Introduction:  

This apparatus is used to test the vertical installation of a bunched cable or optical cable to suppress the flame vertical spreading under the specified conditions, is the necessary equipment for power cables, control cables and fiber optic cable bundle burning test.In addition,if the tester burner adjust of 20 degrees,it can be achieved by IEEE 383 (IEEE 1202) testing standards.This tester can also be equipped with heat release instrument configure port, with the gas analyzer can measure the thermal power values such as HRR (heat release rate), SPR (smoke production rate) and so on.



  Standard:  

• UL1685

1. UL combustion exposure detection is a combustion detection on the vertical cable shelf, which is used to determine the cable encounter When the fire source is burned, the cable of the electrical and fiber cable damage the height value and the amount of smoking. In line with UL detection rules.

The cable must meet the following requirements (see 10.1 and 10.2):

a) The damage height of the cable should be less than 8 feet (244cm) from the bottom of the cable.

b) Total smoke does not exceed 95 square meters.

c) The maximum smoking rate does not exceed 0.25 square meters per second.

2. This test is to determine the spread of these "limited smoke production" cables and the specialty of smoke to determine these electricity

Whether the cable is eligible to add the "LS" logo to their type of letters.

3. The combustion or decomposition of the products that are not surveyed in this test.

4. This test does not include the structural requirements of the cable or any electrical, optics or other performance requirements of the cable.



• IEC 60332-3-10

1 Scope

The international standards include 3-10, 3-21, 3-23, 3-24 and 3-25 of IEC60332. The test method is given in this standard. Under the prescribed conditions, the beam wires, cables, and flame vertical spread of vertical installation under the flame conditions are evaluated.

This section of IEC60332 provides detailed regulations for instruments and its settings and calibrations.
