EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 12881-1 testing. EN 12881-1 describes four methods for measuring flame propagation along a conveyor belt that has been exposed to a relatively highly localized heat source such as a fire. The damage suffered by the conveyor belt and its tendency to support combustion are measured by observing the extent to which the fire has spread throughout the test piece.
The purpose of the test methods described in EN 12881-1 is to provide an indication of the response of a conveyor belt to a fire situation. In doing so, however, attention has been drawn to the fact that in assessing the overall flammability properties of conveyor belts for particular installations, it is not sufficient to rely solely on any single test method, but each site location must also be considered.
The burners used in each method will be fed from bottled propane gas conforming to ISO 9162 and should be fed to each burner using a high pressure propane hose with a minimum inside diameter of 6,3 mm:
