________________________________________________________________________________________________
Conditioning
Prior to testing: At least 72 hours in ambient indoor conditions, then at least 16 hours in an
atmosphere having a temperature of 20

5°C and a relative humidity of 50
±
20%
At time of testing: Temperature between 15°C & 30°C. Relative humidity between 20% & 70%
Test Results
"The following test results relate only to the ignitability of the combination of upholstery composites under the particular
conditions of test; they are not intended as a means of assessing the fully potential fire hazard of the materials in use."
Pass / Fail Criteria Initial test Repeat test
Progressive smouldering failure
Externally detectable amounts of smoke, heat or glowing 60 min after
crib ignition
No No
Escalating smouldering behaviour rendered the test unsafe to continue
and required forcible extinction
No No
Smouldering essentially consumed the test specimen within the
duration of the test
No No
Flaming failure
The test specimen continued to flame for more than 10 minutes after
the ignition of the crib
No No
Escalating combustion behaviour rendered the test unsafe to continue
and required forcible extinction
No No
Flaming essentially consumed the test specimen within the duration of
the test
No No
Final examination
Progressive smouldering was observed when the sample was
dismantled
No No
Comments
Time to extinction of flames after crib ignition 2 minutes 49 seconds 2 minutes 54 seconds
Time to extinction of glowing after crib ignition Due to the position of the crib
within the test specimen it was
not possible to see when glowing
ceased
Due to the position of the crib
within the test specimen it was not
possible to see when glowing
ceased
Time to extinction of smoke after crib ignition Due to the amount of smoke in
the test enclosure it was not
possible to see when smoking
ceased
Due to the amount of smoke in
the test enclosure it was not
possible to see when smoking
ceased
Maximum extent of damage to back (mm) Length / Width 400 152 400 149
Maximum extent of damage to base (mm) Length / Width 106 161 98 158
The resultant mass loss exceeded 60g No (33g) No (32g)
Test Result Pass Pass
