Needle Flame Test Apparatus is designed to carry out fire hazard testing. Flammability test is to check the ‘Resistance to Fire’ of electrical insulators that touch directly conducting parts & also parts of insulators. Testing with regard to fire hazards can be done by creating exactly the conditions occurring in practice. However, this is not possible in most instances. Hence for this test, the actual conditions are simulated as closely as possible by the Needle Flame Test Apparatus.
PLC to control the sequence of operation and display the Test Results.
Ball Screw Type sliding mechanism for vertical and horizontal movement.
Enclosure with 0.5 cubic meter internal volume.
Bunsens Burner with 9 to 10 mm diameter with regulator and needle flame diameter 0.5.
Test time for temperature to increase from 100° C +/- 5° C to 700° C +/- will be 23.5+/- 1 s.
Test time in second.
Draught Free Condition.
Observation of test from outside from mirror.
Chamber from inside should be dark.
Exhaust to remove product of combustion.

16 * 2 LCD Display for User interface.
Membrane keys for settings.
Programmable Total test time.
Temperature indicator for continuous monitoring and displaying sensor Temperature.
Lamps to indicate Flame position
TEST OVER indication with Alarm at the end of the tests.
The product is available in PC based or non PC based mode.
The product tests the susceptibility of the insulation material against piercing metallic parts when subjected to fire. The insulation sample under test may be examined later on and be subjected to more tests
