EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 60695-11-20 test. IEC EN 60695-11-20 describes a test method consisting of two small-scale laboratory test procedures aimed at comparing the combustion behavior of different materials used in electrotechnical products.
Vertically oriented bar specimens or horizontally oriented plate test specimens are exposed to a small flame ignition source with a rated thermal power of 500 W.
The 500 W flame test method is used to evaluate the flammability of materials by exposing them to a flame with a heat output of 500 W. The test measures the time it takes for the material to ignite, the time it takes for the flame to spread.
IEC EN 60695-11-20 is particularly useful for manufacturers of materials that can be used in electrical and electronic equipment, such as plastics, textiles and insulation materials. The standard provides a reliable and repeatable method for testing the fire hazard of these materials, allowing for accurate and consistent assessment of their flammability properties.
It is important to note that although IEC EN 60695-11-20 provides a useful tool for testing materials for fire hazard properties, it is not the only factor to consider when selecting and using materials in electrical and electronic equipment. Other factors such as specific application and environmental conditions should also be considered when evaluating the suitability of materials for a particular use. Therefore, it is important to consider all relevant factors when selecting and using materials in electrical and electronic equipment.
