TPP Thermal Protective Performance Tester is suitable for textiles and garments, petroleum chemical industry, labor protection and quality supervision, inspection and other industries or establishments with different requirements for protective clothing for thermal protection performance test.

It is also used for testing protective clothing, safety shoes, gloves, thermal protective performance at the outer surface of the helmet. By established under the effect of heat radiation source, testing the thermal protective performance of materials.

Standards:

NFPA 1971, Standard on Protective Ensembles for Structural Fire Fighting and Proximity Fire Fighting

ASTM D4018, standard test method for thermal protective performance of materials for clothing by open-flame method

GB 8965.1, Protective clothing—Flame-retardant protection- Part 1: Flame-retardant protective clothing

ISO 17492, Clothing for protection against heat and flame—Determination of heat transmission on exposure to both flame and radiant heat
