NFPA 701-1 Flammability Tester - TNG1071

The TNG1071 NFPA 701-1 Flammability Tester is a laboratory instrument used to determine the flammability characteristics of textiles, specifically draperies and other hanging fabrics. The device operates by exposing a fabric sample to a controlled flame source, simulating real-world conditions to evaluate ignition resistance. The tester features an open-type burning chamber constructed with a calcium silicate board interior and a stainless steel exterior. A standard Meker laboratory burner is used to apply the flame, and the system automatically records the burning time. The instrument is suitable for testing single-layer or multi-layer fabrics, provided the fabric density does not exceed 700g/m2 (21oz/yd2). The TNG1071 complies with NFPA 701-2004 Test Method 1, ensuring that test procedures align with recognized safety standards. The dimensions of the tester are 900 mm in length, 510 mm in width, and 720 mm in height.
