What’s the difference of Needle flame and horizontal & vertical flame test?

ZY-3 Needle flame tester is mainly used for testing lighting equipment, low-voltage electrical appliances, household appliances, power tools, electronic instruments, electronic instruments, etc. At the same time, this instrument is also suitable for testing insulating materials, engineering plastics and solid flammable materials. Comply with IEC60695-2-2 (2004), GB5169.5-2008, GB4706.1 and other test standards.

HVR-L horizontal and vertical flame test chamber is used for electrical and plastic material parts of electrical equipment for horizontal and vertical UL94 flammability test. The shell of the product is anti-iron sprayed, and is equipped with a transparent observation window. The digital instrument displays the burning time, afterflame time, and afterglow time. The device is beautiful in appearance, easy to use, and reliable in performance. Comply with IEC60950, UL94, IEC707, IEC695-2-2, GB5169, ISO1210 and other standards.

1. LISUN ZY-3 needle flame tester is a needle-shaped burner with a specified size (Φ0.9mm), which is fed with a specific gas (butane) and directionally ignites the test sample at a 45° angle, depending on whether the test sample ignites and sustains combustion Time and length of combustion to assess the fire hazard of small flames caused by fault conditions inside the equipment.

2. LISUN HVR-LS horizontal and vertical combustion test device series products simulate the influence of the flame in the early stage when fire occurs around the electrical and electronic products, so as to assess the degree of fire hazard through simulation technology. It is mainly used for horizontal and vertical flammability tests on the relative combustion characteristics of plastic and other non-metallic material parts samples, solid materials, and foams with an apparent density of not less than 250kg/m’ when measured according to ISO845. During the test, put the test piece at the top of the flame, burn for 15 seconds, extinguish for 15 seconds, check the burning condition of the test piece after repeating 5 times, you can set the burning, extinguishing time and the number of repetitions, and can automatically operate.

The above is the description of the difference between what is the flame test and the horizontal and vertical combustion test. Regarding the two types of test equipment, LISUN needle flame tester has two models, the conventional ZY-3 and the compact ZY-3S, and the HVR-LS horizontal and vertical Flame test chamber. And the needle flame tester of LISUN fully meets the standards of IEC60695-2-2 and IEC60695-11-5. The horizontal and vertical flame test chamber also fully meets the requirements of ANSI/UL94, IEC60950-1, IEC60695-2-2 and GB standards.
