External use of Dual Cone Calorimeter

DESCRIPTION OF THE EQUIPMENT

Dual Cone Calorimeter (Dual Cone Calorimeter, Fire Testing Technology Limited).

The cone calorimeter is one of the most advanced and widely used instruments for assessing the fire behavior of materials under realistic fire conditions. It measures key parameters such as heat release rate, total heat release, time to ignition, mass loss rate, and smoke production. The sample is exposed to a controlled external heat flux using a cone-shaped radiant heater, simulating real fire scenarios. Based on the principle of oxygen consumption calorimetry, it provides highly reliable and standardized data (ISO 5660, ASTM E1354). The cone calorimeter is essential for understanding fire dynamics and material performance in end-use conditions.
