Product Profile of Glow-Wire Test Equipment
Glow-Wire Test Equipment is designed to carry out fire hazard testing as specified in IEC 60695-2-10 2000-10. Flammability test is to check the `Resistance to Fire` of electrical insulators that touch directly conducting parts & also parts of insulators. Testing with regard to fire hazards can be done by creating exactly the conditions occurring in practice. However, this is not possible in most instances. Hence for this test, the actual conditions are simulated as closely as possible by the glow wire test equipment. Glow-Wire Test Equipment is manufactured by SCR Elektroniks.
SCR Elektroniks is an ISO 9001:2008 registered organization. SCR Elektroniks also supplies Customized Electrical Test Equipments & Compliance Verification Benches for electrical products.
Key Features of Glow-Wire Test Equipment
