Bs 476 Fire Testing Systems

BS 476 Fire Testing Systems British Standard Surface Spread & Fire Propagation Testers

Comprehensive Testing Equipment for Surface Flammability & Fire Resistance under BS Standards

KDM Globals BS 476 Fire Testing Systems are purpose-built to evaluate building and construction materials for surface spread of flame, fire propagation, and ignitability, as per British Standard BS 476 Parts 4, 6, 7, and 2022. These machines are essential for manufacturers and testing labs seeking certification for products used in high-rise buildings, tunnels, transport, and public infrastructure.

Key Features

* Complies with BS 476 Parts 4, 6, 7, 2022

* Surface Spread of Flame Apparatus (Part 7) Classifies materials from Class 1 to Class 4 based on flame spread over time

* Fire Propagation Test Chamber (Part 6) Measures the combustion index for wall and ceiling linings

* Non-Combustibility Tester (Part 4) Evaluates whether materials contribute to fire load or combustion

* Fire Resistance Test Furnace (Parts 2022) For load-bearing structural elements under fire load conditions (walls, floors, beams, doors)

Test Coverage

* Surface Flame Spread For linings, insulation, and panels

* Combustion Index Total and sub-indices for wall/ceiling coverings

* Non-Combustibility Furnace behavior under controlled heating

* Structural Fire Resistance Integrity, insulation & load-bearing capacity over 30, 60, 90, 120 minutes
