Product Features
High Compliance & Accuracy
The ZLT-BS2 strictly follows IEC60454-2 and UL 510 standards, ensuring test results are recognized globally. The Type K thermocouple with a digital display (≥816℃ range) provides real-time, precise temperature monitoring, while the flame height scale allows for visual verification of flame intensity.
Stable Test Conditions
A 2kg±20g tension mass attached to the tape ensures consistent stress during testing, and the winding jig enables smooth, uniform tape winding on the mandrel—eliminating human error in sample preparation. The burner’s fixed 20° angle (per IEC60454-2 Figure 11) guarantees repeatable flame application.
Safety & Durability
The three-sided metal enclosure (305mm×355mm×610mm) prevents flame spread and protects operators from heat radiation. All components (e.g., steel mandrel, burner) are made of high-temperature-resistant materials, ensuring long-term use in harsh testing environments.
Application
The ZLT-BS2 is ideal for scenarios requiring strict flame resistance testing of pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes, including:
Electrical Insulation Industry: Testing insulating tapes used in motors, transformers, and electrical enclosures to ensure compliance with safety standards.
Tape Manufacturers: Quality control during production to verify that tapes meet customer or regulatory flame propagation requirements.
Third-Party Testing Labs: Conducting independent compliance audits for clients in the electronics, automotive, and aerospace sectors.
Regulatory Bodies: Enforcing safety standards by verifying that tapes sold in the market adhere to IEC60454-2 and UL 510.
FAQ
Q1: Which standards does the ZLT-BS2 fully comply with?
A1: It meets IEC60454-2 Clause 20 (including the geometric requirements of Figure 10 for sample fixing and Figure 11 for burner angle) and UL 510 Clause 6—two of the most authoritative standards for insulating tape flame testing.
Q2: Can the power supply be customized for regions with 110V 60Hz?
A2: Yes. The standard power supply is 220V 50Hz, but we offer custom configurations (e.g., 110V 60Hz) to match regional electrical systems. Please specify your requirements when ordering.
Q3: How is the test specimen secured during testing?
A3: The apparatus includes a dedicated specimen holder that fixes the tape’s longitudinal axis vertically to the center of the protective enclosure (per IEC60454-2 Figure 10). This ensures the flame acts on the tape in a consistent, standardized manner.
Q4: What is the purpose of the steel mandrel and tension mass?
A4: The 3.5mm×460mm steel mandrel is used to wind the test tape, while the 2kg±20g mass applies constant tension. This simulates real-world stress on the tape and ensures flame propagation is tested under realistic conditions.
