Method B uses a test piece 2,5 m in length and consumes propane gas through two burners mounted above and below the test piece trestle at the rate of 1,30 ± 0,05 kg per 10 min for each b

Apparatus

The gallery, as illustrated in Figure 1, must have a cross section not exceeding 6 m², with a height ranging from 1.9 m to 2.25 m and a width between 1.9 m and 2.75 m Air is drawn through the gallery by an adjustable fan Additionally, the gallery should feature a concrete floor and extend at least 15.0 m from the entrance.

The trestle, as illustrated in Figure 2, features a steel tubing framework with internal dimensions of 2.25 m in length and 1.25 m in width, constructed in accordance with ISO 65 and a bore designation of DN 15 heavy series It is equipped with rod retainers on the upper sides to securely position and hold 15 steel bars made from high-quality austenitic chrome/nickel steel, such as 1.4310X10CrNi18-8, which meets EN 10088-3 standards for rust, acid, and heat resistance Each bar has a diameter of 10 mm and a length of 1.4 m, forming the supporting frame for the belting, with the upper surface of the bars positioned 350 mm above the floor.

4.1.3 Burner, constructed in accordance with Figure 3, comprising a square having side dimensions of

The burner will be constructed from welded steel tube that meets ISO 65 standards, featuring a bore designation of DN 15 in either medium or heavy series Its dimensions will include a length of (450 ± 9) mm and an overall height of (220 ± 5) mm.

52 holes, each having a diameter of (1,5 ± 0,1) mm, spaced at 50 mm intervals

An anemometer or alternative air velocity measurement device must be positioned at a height of 350 mm along the centerline of the gallery It should be located at least 7.25 m from the gallery entrance and 750 mm from the nearest end of the trestle to the entrance.

Preparation of test pieces

Cut two test pieces, each 2 m long × 1 200 mm wide or of full width if the conveyor belt is less than

1 200 mm wide Lay the test pieces out for 24 h in dry conditions at any ambient temperature above 0 °C immediately prior to testing to remove residual curvature.

Temperature at commencement of test

The ambient temperature at the commencement of the test shall be between 5 °C and 30 °C.

Number of tests

Carry out two tests, one on each side of the belt, so that both covers are tested.

Procedure

4.5.1 Weigh the propane gas bottle prior to the test

To ensure proper installation, position the trestle centrally along the longitudinal axis of the gallery, with the burner end directed towards the ventilation flow Additionally, maintain a minimum distance of 8 meters between the burner end of the trestle and the gallery entrance.

4.5.3 Place each test piece in turn centrally on the trestle with its transverse edge flush with the burner end of the trestle

4.5.4 Adjust the air current in the gallery to give an average velocity of (1,5 ± 0,1) m/s at a height of

350 mm Take the measurement on the centreline of the trestle and at a distance of 750 mm from the end of the trestle nearest the gallery entrance (see Figure 1)

Position the burner centrally, aligning the four parallel burner tubes with the longitudinal axis of the test piece Ensure the distance from the top of the burner to the top of the supporting bars is (130 ± 5) mm, with the transverse end row of burner holes set 50 mm inside the vertically projected transverse edge of the test piece Ignite the burner and promptly adjust the gas consumption rate to (1.30 ± 0.05) kg per 10 minutes.

To regulate gas consumption effectively, maintain the high pressure side of the orifice plate at approximately 0.16 MPa for a consumption rate of 0.13 kg/min It is essential to position the pressure reducing valve, non-return valve, and orifice plate in close proximity Additionally, utilize a sensitive precision pressure gauge to accurately monitor the pressure on the high pressure side of the orifice plate.

After 10 minutes, turn off the gas and allow the test piece to remain on the trestle until all flames and glowing have stopped If the fire poses a risk to individuals or equipment, terminate the test immediately.

4.5.7 Re-weigh the gas bottle at the end of the test

4.5.8 Measure the damage to the test piece as described in 4.7.

Termination of tests

A test is considered to be normally terminated when at least 10 minutes have passed since all flaming and glowing on the test piece and debris has stopped.

Any test terminated for safety reasons shall be deemed to be terminated prematurely and shall be recorded on the test report (see 4.8) as 'test terminated prematurely'.

Measurement of damage to test pieces

4.7.1 Criteria for assessment of damage

To assess damage, the length of the undamaged test piece must be determined after testing Any signs of embrittlement, hardening, cracking, blistering, or other blemishes that were not initially present will be classified as damage.

Measure the undamaged length of the test piece from the trailing edge across its full width, as illustrated in Figure 4, on both the upper and lower surfaces Document the shorter measurement as the length of the belting that remains undamaged.

Measurements should be taken parallel to the longitudinal axis of the belt In cases where the edges of the test piece are uneven due to shrinkage, the longitudinal axis should be visually assessed Measurements must be conducted along the surface of the test piece, even if it has curved.

Test report

The test report must include a reference to EN 12881-1:2014, Method A, the name of the testing institution, the belt manufacturer's name, the test date, and the identification of the belt tested It should also specify the minimum undamaged length of each test piece, the mass of gas consumed, and the signature and name of the responsible person Additionally, any deviations from the testing procedure, including premature termination, must be documented Finally, the report should contain the statement: “The test results relate only to the behaviour of the test pieces of a product under the particular conditions of test; they are not intended to be the sole criterion for assessing the potential fire hazard of the product in use.”

Apparatus

The trestle, as outlined in section 4.1.2, will have a length of 2.70 m, differing from the previous specification of 2.25 m Additionally, it will feature 18 steel bars with a diameter of 12 mm, replacing the earlier design that included 15 steel bars of 10 mm diameter.

5.1.3 Burner, constructed in accordance with Figure 6, comprising two squares, having side dimensions of

The burner consists of two parallel planes, each measuring (450 ± 9) mm, positioned 280 mm apart The centerline of the lower section of the burner is set at a height of (210 ± 5) mm Constructed from welded steel tube that meets ISO 65 standards, the burner features a bore designation of DN 15, available in medium or heavy series.

104 holes (52 in each element), each having a diameter of (1,5 ± 0,1) mm, spaced at 50 mm intervals Each element of the burner shall have its own gas supply

An anemometer or alternative air velocity measurement device must be positioned at a height of 350 mm along the centerline of the gallery, ensuring it is at least 750 mm away from the nearest end of the trestle to the gallery entrance.

Figure 5 — Positions of trestle, double burner and test piece for Method B

Preparation of test pieces

Cut two test pieces, each 2,5 m long × 1 200 mm wide or of full width if the conveyor belt is less than

1 200 mm wide Lay the test pieces out for 24 h in dry conditions at any ambient temperature above 0 °C immediately prior to testing to remove residual curvature.

Temperature at commencement of test

The ambient temperature at the commencement of the test shall be between 5 °C and 30 °C.

Number of tests

Carry out two tests, one on each side of the belt, so that both covers are tested.

Procedure

5.5.1 Weigh the propane gas bottle prior to the test

To ensure proper installation, position the trestle centrally along the longitudinal axis of the gallery, with the burner end directed towards the ventilation flow It is essential that the burner end of the trestle is located at least 8 meters away from the entrance of the gallery.

5.5.3 Place each test piece in turn centrally on the trestle with its transverse edge flush with the burner end of the trestle

5.5.4 Adjust the air current in the gallery to give an average velocity of (1,5 ± 0,1) m/s at a height of

350 mm Take the measurement on the centreline of the trestle and at a distance of 750 mm from the end of the trestle nearest the gallery entrance (see Figure 1)

When the air velocity stabilizes at (1.5 ± 0.1) m/s, position the burner centrally, aligning the four parallel burner tubes with the longitudinal axis of the test piece Ensure that the transverse end row of burner holes is set 50 mm inside the vertically projected transverse edge of the test piece.

5.5.6 Light the burners and adjust the rate of gas consumption immediately to (1,30 ± 0,05) kg per 10 min for each burner

To regulate gas consumption effectively, it is essential to maintain the gas pressure at the high-pressure side of the orifice plate at approximately 0.16 MPa for a consumption rate of 0.13 kg/min The pressure reducing valve, non-return valve, and orifice plate should be installed in close proximity to ensure optimal performance Additionally, a sensitive precision pressure gauge is crucial for accurately monitoring the pressure on the high-pressure side of the orifice plate.

After 20 minutes, turn off the gas to both burners and allow the test piece to remain on the trestle until all flames and glowing have completely extinguished If at any point the fire poses a risk to individuals or equipment, the test should be terminated immediately.

5.5.8 Re-weigh the gas bottle at the end of the test

5.5.9 Measure the damage to the test piece as described in 5.7.

6 Method C – Mid-scale fire propagation test

Apparatus

The test gallery, illustrated in Figures 7 and 8, features a chamber constructed from 25 mm thick refractory material, with dimensions of 460 mm × 460 mm and a length of 1,676 mm It connects to a 300 mm diameter exhaust duct via a conical transition section (plenum) made of 1.5 mm thick stainless steel The refractory material exhibits a thermal conductivity of (0.14 ± 0.02) W/(m·K) at temperatures ranging from 20 °C to 200 °C An adjustable fan located in the exhaust duct facilitates air circulation through the gallery, with airflow speed regulated by dampers.

6.1.2 Exhaust hood, made of stainless steel, 1,5 mm thick, placed over the test chamber to extract smoke and fumes that may escape from the front of the chamber during a test

6.1.3 Trestle, (see Figure 9), to carry the belt sample This shall be 1 500 mm long, 220 mm wide and

160 mm high, made from 10 mm diameter mild steel rod It shall have lugs by which the belt sample can be wired down to the frame

The gas burner, illustrated in Figure 10, features six 3kW Type 1 Atmospheric Burner Heads equipped with 0.7 mm diameter bore jets designed for propane These burners are arranged in two rows of three, inclined at a 45° angle inward, and are mounted on a frame to position them beneath the test sample, as detailed in Figure 11.

Propane gas is supplied to the burner at a constant rate through a flow meter, ensuring that the mass of gas consumed during the test is (565 ± 10) g, as detailed in Clause 6.6.4 regarding the required flow rate for this gas consumption.

Preparation of test pieces

For conveyor belts with equal thickness top and bottom covers, cut two longitudinal test pieces measuring 1,500 mm in length and 230 mm in width For belts with unequal thickness, three samples should be cut Ensure that the test pieces have clean-cut edges and are not taken from within 50 mm of the belt's edges Weigh each test piece after cutting and allow them to lie flat for 24 hours before testing.

To secure the test pieces to the trestle, drill six holes in the test pieces using an 8 mm diameter drill bit Specifically, create four holes through the belt, positioned 50 mm in from each side and 50 mm from both the front and rear edges of the test piece Additionally, drill two holes through the test piece, located 20 mm in from the sides and 330 mm from the front edge.

To secure the test piece, place it on the trestle and attach it to the frame using 25 gauge wire threaded through the six drilled holes Additionally, ensure that two pieces of wire are positioned at 100 mm and 250 mm from the front, firmly fastening the test piece to the lugs on the frame.

Installation of the test pieces and burner

6.3.1 Place the trestle in the test chamber centrally with the front edge of the test piece 160 mm from the front of the test chamber

6.3.2 Install the burner centrally beneath the trestle such that the front jets are in line with the front edge of the test piece.

Temperature at commencement of test

The ambient temperature at the commencement of the test shall be between 5 °C and 30 °C

NOTE A substantial amount of heat is absorbed by the gallery during each test and this can affect subsequent tests

It is important, therefore, that the gallery be allowed to cool to ambient temperature between each test In practice, a period of three hours has proved to be satisfactory.

Number of tests

6.5.1 For belting with top and bottom covers that are of equal thickness, conduct two tests

For belting with uneven top and bottom cover thickness, perform three tests: a) test one piece with the top cover facing up; b) test another piece with the top cover facing down; c) test a third piece in the configuration that yielded the worst result from the previous tests.

Procedure

6.6.1 Weigh the propane gas bottle prior to the test

6.6.2 Set the air velocity to (1,0 ± 0,05) m/s using the anemometer positioned as described in 6.1.7

6.6.3 Record the temperature of the exhaust air for between 2 min and 5 min to give a measure of the ambient air temperature

6.6.4 Set the gas flow to approximately 350 l/h and light the burner Start the timer Adjust the gas flow to

6.6.5 After 50 min turn off the gas to the burner and allow the test piece and trestle to cool (see also 6.7)

Terminate the test early if the extent of the fire appears to be a danger to persons or equipment

At the conclusion of the test, re-weigh the gas bottle to verify that the gas consumed is within the range of (565 ± 10) g over a duration of 50 minutes If the measured mass falls outside this range, adjust the flow rate and conduct the test again.

6.6.7 Remove all belting remaining on the trestle and allow it to cool to ambient temperature Detach any friable material and weigh the belting.

Termination of tests

A test is considered to be normally terminated when at least 10 minutes have passed after all flames and glowing on the test piece and debris have stopped.

Any test terminated for safety reasons shall be deemed to be terminated prematurely and shall be recorded on the test report (see 6.10) as 'test terminated prematurely'.

Measurement of damage to test pieces

6.8.1 Criteria for assessment of damage

To assess damage, the length of the undamaged test piece must be determined after testing Any signs of embrittlement, hardening, cracking, blistering, or other blemishes that were not initially present will be classified as damage.

Measure the undamaged length of the test piece from the trailing edge across its full width, as illustrated in Figure 4, on both the upper and lower surfaces Document the shorter measurement as the length of the belting that remains undamaged.

Measurements must be taken parallel to the longitudinal axis of the belt In cases where the edges of the test piece are uneven due to shrinkage, the longitudinal axis should be visually assessed Measurements should be conducted along the surface of the test piece, even if it has curved.

Calculate the maximum average temperature rise above ambient for any one-minute interval during the test based on the recorded temperature measurements Document this value as the maximum average temperature rise.

Calculate the length consumed, in millimetres, as follows:

500 test 1 before mass after test mass

- test before consumed mass length = × (1)

Exhaust temperature calibration

Calibration should be performed under specific conditions: prior to the initial use of a new gallery, after any maintenance work has been completed, and regularly to confirm that no unintended changes in conditions have taken place.

Operate the test gallery without the test piece at a gas flow rate of (565 ± 10) g/50 min Ensure the exhaust gas temperature, measured in the ducting during the last minute of the test, exceeds the ambient temperature by (50 ± 5) °C Additionally, plot the exhaust gas temperature against time throughout the test, confirming that the temperature rise above ambient aligns with the pattern illustrated in Figure 12.

Test report

The test report must include a reference to EN 12881, specifically “EN 12881-1:2014, Method C,” along with the name of the testing institution and the belt manufacturer It should state the test date, identify the belt under examination, and provide the minimum undamaged length for each test piece, the mass of belting consumed, the maximum average temperature rise, and the mass of gas consumed Additionally, it must include the signature and name of the responsible person, note any deviations from the testing procedure, and clarify if the test was terminated early Finally, the report should contain the statement: “The test results relate only to the behaviour of the test pieces of a product under the particular conditions of test; they are not intended to be the sole criterion for assessing the potential fire hazard of the product in use.”

7 Method D Laboratory scale Fire Propagation Test

Apparatus

The test gallery, illustrated in Figures 13, 14, and 15, features internal dimensions of 350 mm x 350 mm x 2100 mm and is constructed with a stainless steel outer casing, including a 5 mm thick base and 1.5 mm thick sides and top The sides and top are lined with 25 mm thick refractory material, which has an apparent density of 450 kg/m³, a compression strength of approximately 4 MPa, and a thermal conductivity of 0.08 W/(m·K) Additionally, the test gallery is connected to a 130 mm diameter exhaust duct via a conical transition section (plenum) made of 1.5 mm thick stainless steel The observation windows on the side walls are made from 4 mm thick heat-resistant glass, exhibiting a thermal conductivity of 1.1 W/(m·K).

The exhaust hood, depicted in Figure 15, is constructed from 1.5 mm thick stainless steel and is positioned above the test chamber to effectively extract smoke and fumes that may escape during testing It is designed to ensure that the air flow within the test chamber remains unaffected.

7.1.3 Adjustable ventilation shall be fitted to the end of the exhaust ducting

The trestle, as illustrated in Figure 16, is designed to support the belt sample and is constructed from a 10 mm diameter mild steel rod, measuring 1330 mm in length Its width and height are adjustable to meet specific test conditions and procedures The height of the holder clamp, denoted as \( a \) in Figure 16, should be chosen based on the thickness of the test piece to ensure that it does not distort during testing.

7.1.5 Gas burner for propane gas as per Figure 18 with ceramic sieve

Propane gas, as detailed in Clause 3, is delivered to the burner at a consistent rate, as specified in Table 1 The flow meter used must accurately measure volume flows ranging from 23 l/hr to 230 l/hr under standard temperature and pressure conditions.
