CFR 1633 Mattress Flame Retardant Tester

Standard

• 16 CFR Part 1633: A U.S. federal standard mandating full-scale fire resistance tests for mattresses to limit fire hazards in residential settings.
• TB 603: A California technical bulletin specifying open-flame test methods for upholstered furniture, including sofas, to ensure compliance with state-level flammability regulations.

Product Advantages

1. Regulatory Compliance: Engineered to satisfy 16 CFR Part 1633 (flammability of mattresses) and TB 603 (technical bulletin for furniture), reducing barriers to U.S. market entry.
2. Advanced Combustion Analysis: Precision oxycalorimeter and gas analysis station provide accurate heat release and toxic gas emission data, critical for safety certification.
3. Versatile Testing Configurations: Includes modular burner devices for mattresses, sofas, and soft chairs, accommodating diverse furniture types in a single platform.
4. Eco-Friendly Operation: Integrated exhaust gas processing system ensures emissions meet environmental regulations, minimizing environmental impact.
5. User-Centric Design: Intuitive gas flow control and automated data logging streamline testing workflows, saving time and reducing operator error.
