Specification

A. Main Unit

1. OSU Main unit (1set)

1) Apparatus Dimensions : 760mm (W) x 1850mm x (H) x 850mm (D) 

2) Test chamber

- The radiant heat source and ensure that the heat flux density is 35±0.5kW/m2

- This will determine if the material complies with FAR 25.853 requirements

- Four silicon carbide elements Type LL 508mm by 16mm with nominal resistance 1.4 Ohms as a heat source with corrosion resistant stainless steel housing

- A reflector made from stainless steel is situated behind the elements

- In front of the elements, a truncated diamond shaped mask, constructed of stainless steel, this provides uniform heat flux density over the area occupied by the 151 × 151mm vertical sample

- Wand Assembly for lighting the upper pilot and calibration burners

- Dual global power controllers for ease of heat flux uniformity adjustment

- Upper pilot and lower pilot (with spark ignition) and calibration methane gas burners

- Thermopile for heat release rate measurement, with five hot thermocouple junctions in the chimney and five cold thermocouple junctions in the air chamber

3) Specimen holders (1set)

- Two specimen holders

- Each specimen holder is fabricated from stainless steel



2. Air distribution system(1set)
