Controlled equivalence ratio method for the determination of hazardous components of fire effluents ISO/TS 19700:2007

Publication date:   Mar 6, 2007

Scope

ISO/TS 19700:2007 describes a tube-furnace method for the generation of fire effluent for the identification and measurement of its constituent combustion products, in particular, the yields of toxic products under a range of fire decomposition conditions.
The test method described in ISO/TS 19700:2007 can be used solely to measure and describe the properties of materials, products or systems in response to heat or flame under controlled laboratory conditions. It is not suitable to be used by itself for describing or appraising the fire hazard of materials, products or systems under actual fire conditions, or as the sole source on which regulations pertaining to toxicity can be based.
