Textilien und textile Erzeugnisse - Brennverhalten von Vorhängen und Gardinen - Messung der Flammenausbreitungseigenschaften von vertikal angeordneten Messproben bei Einwirkung großer Zündquellen

Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Messung der Flammenausbreitung bei Einwirkung größerer Zündquellen für vertikal angeordnete textile Flächengebilde fest, die für Gardinen und Vorhänge bestimmt und als Ein- oder Mehrkomponenten-Gewebe ausgeführt sind (beschichtet, gesteppt, mehrlagig, Verbundstoffe und ähnliche Kombinationen).

Textiles et produits textiles - Comportement au feu - Rideaux et tentures - Mesurage de la propagation de flamme d'éprouvettes orientées verticalement avec une grande source d'allumage

La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode de mesure de la propagation de flamme sur des étoffes textiles orientées verticalement, destinées a la confection de rideaux et tentures, sous l'application d'une source d'allumage importante. Il peut s'agir d'étoffes simples ou multiples (textiles enduits, ouatés, multicouches, en sandwich et autres structures analogues).

EN 13772:2003 (E)4IntroductionThe standard EN ISO 6941 measures the flame spread of vertically oriented specimens ignited with a defined smallflame. There is however a risk that products not ignitable with a small flame can be ignited with a more severeignition source.The equipment used in EN ISO 6941 has therefore been modified with a radiator, which radiates on the lower partof the specimen. The combination of this radiation and the small flame application simulates the action from alarger flaming source, e.g. a burning waste paper basket.This European Standard evaluates flame spread using this more severe ignition source. With this combined ignitionsource some materials, not ignitable with the small flame, may ignite. Some of these will self extinguish, when theaction from the ignition source has ceased, while others will self propagate.SIST EN 13772:2003



EN 13772:2003 (E)51 ScopeThis European Standard specifies a method for the measurement of flame spread of vertically oriented textilefabrics intended for curtains and drapes in the form of single or multi-component (coated, quilted, multilayered,sandwich construction and similar combinations) fabrics using a large ignition source.2 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. Thesenormative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. Fordated reference, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this EuropeanStandard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of thepublication referred to applies (including amendments).EN 367:1992, Protective clothing - Protection against heat and fire - Method of determining heat transmission onexposure to flameEN ISO 3175, Textiles - Evaluation of stability to machine dry-cleaning (ISO 3175:1995)EN ISO 6330, Textiles - Domestic washing and drying procedure for textile testing (ISO 6330:2000)EN ISO 6941, Textile fabrics - Burning behaviour - Measurement of flame spread properties of vertically orientedspecimens (ISO 6941:1984, including Amendment 1:1992)3 Term and definitionFor the purposes of this European Standard, the following term and definition applies:3.1flaming debrismaterial separating from the specimen during the test procedure, falling below the initial edge of the specimen andigniting a filter paper4 PrincipleA heat flux of a defined energy is applied to a specified area of the lower part of the backside of the verticalspecimen. After a period of exposure (30 s), the small flame defined in EN ISO 6941 is applied for 10 s to a smallpiece of cotton fabric fixed around the bottom edge of the specimen.The possible flame spread is measured through the severance of marker threads.5 Health and safety of test operatorBurning materials may produce smoke and toxic gases which can affect the health of operators. Between tests theatmosphere of the testing location, which should be of adequate dimensions to avoid endangering the health ofoperators, should be cleared of smoke and fumes by an extractor fan or other means of ventilation.SIST EN 13772:2003
