Insulation materials or other solid combustible materials that are prone to flame spread inside electrical and electronic equipment may ignite due to small flames generated by faulty components, causing electrical fires and endangering the reliable operation of equipment and personal safety. The needle flame tester uses a needle shaped burner with a regular scale (ф 0.9mm), supplied with specific gas (butane or propane), and directed to ignite the test sample at a 45 ° angle. The ignition hazard of small flames formed inside the equipment due to fault conditions is determined by whether the test sample and the ignition cushion layer are ignited, the holding time, and the combustion length.

The needle flame tester is suitable for the research, production, and quality inspection of electrical and electronic equipment and their components and parts, such as lighting, low-voltage electrical appliances, household appliances, machine tool appliances, motors, power tools, electronic instruments, electrical instruments, information technology equipment, electrical business equipment, electrical connectors, accessories, etc. It is also suitable for industries such as insulation materials, engineering plastics, or other solid combustible materials.
