EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 22899-2 testing. The test specified in ISO 22899-1 is designed to give an indication of how passive fire protection materials will perform in a jet fire.
ISO 22899-2 provides: background information on the feasibility and validation of jet fire testing; more details on testing pipe transition seals; guidance on the interpretation of test results and an optional classification system; Guidance on the combination of results from hydrocarbon furnace tests and jet fire resistance tests.
The purpose of the jet fire test is to have a structural member, valve, transition sealing system, etc., to resist exposure to the above ignited fuel jet. is to determine the amount of additional passive fire protection material to be applied.
The method provides an indication of how passive fire protection materials perform in a jet fire that may occur, for example, in petrochemical plants where flammable gases are stored under pressure. It aims to simulate the thermal and mechanical loads applied to passive fire protection material by large-scale jet fires from high-pressure combustible gas, pressurized liquefied gas or glowing liquid fuels.
There are concerns regarding the application and performance of passive fire protection materials and products when exposed to extreme fire events. Limited information is available on how passive fire protection materials and products (developed only for buildings to withstand relatively slow-developing fire tests such as ISO 834 standard fire) will react when exposed to a significantly more severe fire. A fire protection material or system intended to withstand a conventional building fire for a specified period of time may not perform adequately in an extreme event scenario. Products that have proven their ability to withstand a jet fire can be used to protect structural members and installations against extreme fires.
EUROLAB assists manufacturers with ISO 22899-2 test compliance. Our test experts, with their professional working mission and principles, provide you, our manufacturers and suppliers, the best service and controlled testing process in our laboratories. Thanks to these services, businesses receive more effective, high-performance and quality testing services and provide safe, fast and uninterrupted service to their customers.
