Touchscreen Glow Wire Flammability Testing Equipment for Plastic &
Electrical Components | IEC 60695 Compliant
Product Description
The Touchscreen Glow Wire Test Chamber from HongCe is a precision
flammability testing solution designed to evaluate the fire
resistance of insulating materials, plastics, and electrical
components under abnormal thermal stress.
Built by an experienced source manufacturer, this equipment
combines IEC-standard accuracy, intuitive touchscreen control, and
long-term reliability to support compliance testing, R&D
validation, and quality control in global laboratories.
International Reference Standards:
So, the glow wire test? It's how we check if plastic stuff can
handle heat. It's part of a bigger set of safety tests (IEC 60695),
mainly sections 2-10 through 2-13. Think of it as a fire hazard
assessment for plastics.
- IEC 60695-2-10 – Glow wire test equipment and general test method.
- IEC 60695-2-11 – Tests with the glow wire for flammability of end
products (GWEPT).
- IEC 60695-2-12 – Testing with glow wire for flammability of
materials (GWFI).
- IEC 60695-2-13 – Tests with the glow wire for the flammability of
materials (GWIT).
Applications
- Electrical and electronic product safety testing
- Plastic material flame resistance evaluation
- Appliance certification laboratories
- Automotive electrical component testing
