Reaction fire tests
NF P 92-501: Epiradiator Test
Standard test for rigid materials > 5mm
400x300m specimen at 45° heated for 20 min. with 30kW/m2
Parameters:
- h: height of flames [cm]
- ti: ignition time [s]

NF P 92-504: Flame Propagation
Applicable if specimen showed melting in NF P 92-501
Specimen fixed horizontally and flamed for 5 s up to 10 times at a different location
-> Final classification dependant on after burn time and dripping behavior
**If M4, flame spread test has to be performed: flaming from lower side for 30s,
measurement of flame propagation speed between 200mm reference.

NF P 92-505: Dripping Test
Specimen 75x75mm distance 30mm to radiator, heated for 10 min.
-> Ignition during first 5 min., heater removed until self-extinguish
Rating applies, if at least one sample shows relevant behavior!
Burning drips -> M3
