The 2895 SAFTAINER is a large volume container for the transport of bulk waste containing radioactive material. The 2895 SAFTAINER is constructed from mild steel and has a removable lid which is secured and fastened on to the container by a bolted closure. The internal and external surfaces are treated with a durable paint finish for corrosion protection. Modifications or specific requirements can be accommodated within the design, subject to a design review. The container can be constructed and supplied in materials other than mild steel e.g. stainless steel or corrosion resisting mild steel. Cavity: 6.058m x 2.438m x 1.219m (external)

The EN 50399 was based on IEC 60332-3 with the addition of heat release measurement and a modified air inlet system. This is accomplished by fitting a small instrumented section of ducting into the exhaust system of the rig and using this with associated FTT gas analysis instrumentation and software. The duct section houses all gas sampling probes, temperature and mass flow probes and has ports for the smoke measuring system.

This European Specification specifies four methods for determining the performance of roofs to external fire exposure. The four methods assess the performance of roofs under the following conditions:

SO 5660; ASTM E1354; ASTM E1474; ASTM E1740; ASTM F1550; ASTM D6113; CAN ULC 135; BS 476 Part 15. The iCone²âº Calorimeter (ISO 5660; ASTM E1354) is the first in FTT’s new interactive range of calorimeters, the i-series. It features the latest technology in control and automation making it the most advanced, reliable and user-friendly cone calorimeter in the world.

ISO 5660; ASTM E1354; ASTM E1474; ASTM E1740; ASTM F1550; ASTM D6113; CAN ULC 135; BS 476 Part 15. Cone Calorimetery (ISO 5660; ASTM E1354) is the most significant bench scale instrumentation in the field of fire testing.

FAR 25.853 (a-1), FAA Fire Test Handbook – Chapter 5; ASTM E906 Standard Test Method for Heat and Visible Smoke Release Rates for Materials and Products. The Rate of Heat Release Apparatus is used to expose aircraft interior cabin materials to an incident radiant heat flux of 35 kW/m², to comply with FAR 25.853 [a-1] requirements.

BS 6401; ASTM E662; NFPA 258 Options: ISO 5659/IMO FTPC Part 2; ATS 1000.001/ABD0031; NES 711. The Smoke Density Chamber has been established for many years and is used widely in all industrial sectors for the determination of smoke generated by solid materials and assemblies mounted in the vertical position within a closed chamber.

The Oxygen Index is, perhaps, the most economical and precise quality control test of combustible materials. Its ease of use together with high levels of precision has made this technique a primary characterising and quality control tool to the plastic and electric cable industries and it has been specified by several military and transport groups. The technique measures the minimum percentage of oxygen in the test atmosphere that is required to marginally support combustion. Note that BS ISO 4589 supersedes BS 2782 Part 141.

The FTT UL 94 Chamber tests are conducted on plastic materials to measure flammability characteristics, giving a preliminary indication of their suitability for a particular application. The apparatus is supplied as a complete system incorporating all the features necessary for ease of use and safety.
