Model : PFT-IS 15061
The Flammability Tester IS 15061 is a high-precision laboratory testing instrument designed to assess the flame resistance and burning behavior of textile and fabric materials in accordance with the Indian Standard IS 15061. This advanced testing system ensures that textile manufacturers and quality control laboratories can accurately determine how easily a material ignites, how it burns, and how it responds to open flame exposure.
The Flammability Tester IS 15061 is a precision-engineered testing instrument designed to evaluate the burning resistance and flammability characteristics of textile materials and fabrics. It is built in compliance with Indian Standard IS 15061, ensuring accuracy, reliability, and consistency in test results. This advanced tester helps manufacturers determine how easily a material catches fire, how quickly it burns, and how it behaves under specific conditions, making it an essential tool for quality control and safety compliance in textile production.
The Flammability Tester IS 15061 operates by exposing a fabric sample to a standardized flame under controlled conditions. The test measures parameters such as flame spread time, after-glow duration, and char length. The sample is securely mounted in a vertical or horizontal position inside a stainless-steel test chamber. Once ignited, the instrument’s precision timers and observation windows allow users to monitor the burning behavior closely. The results are recorded accurately to determine whether the fabric meets safety standards or requires further treatment to improve fire resistance.
The Flammability Tester IS 15061 is widely used across multiple industries where fabric safety is a priority, including:
