Flame Test Manikin System

This is some text inside of a div block.

A flame test manikin is a device used for testing the  flammability of fabrics and other materials. It consists of a  human-shaped dummy made of material that is designed  to simulate the thermal properties of human skin and  flesh. 

After Development of various Fire Testing Equipments. The  R&D Team under the guidance of scientist at DRDO  developed first of its kind “Flame Test Manikin System” in  India. The hard work of DNG Team, various scientist and  premium Institutes for more than one and half year finally  created a product which is first in India and only two other  companies in the World could have developed such  complex system. We are proud to announce that under the  program of “Atam Nirbhar” Bharat by Prime Minister of  India we have made our country Self Independent and  under the scheme of Make in India more than 70% of the  material used have been developed in India.

Features & Technical Specifications

To perform a flame test, a small sample of the material  being tested is exposed to a flame for a specified period of  time. The manikin is then used to measure the degree of  burn injury that would be sustained by a person wearing  the material under the same conditions. 

Manikin shell is constructed from a ceramic composite material that is completely fireproof and will not degrade with use. 

  • Manikin is pre-posed and jointed at the shoulders only, as per ISO 13506. 
  • Cable connections and manikin support can be configured through the top of the head, side or back of neck, or another alternate location per customer request. 
  • Data acquisition components are located within the manikin body to digitize signals near their source for highest accuracy measurements. 
  • Copper disc sensors do not degrade with use and provide a better match to human skin response. 
  • The Manikin meets the ASTM F1930  and ISO 13506 testing standards. 
  • A Modular burn chamber is also  available, featuring fire proof  construction, a computer  controlled gas delivery and  burner network, as well as  ventilation, fire suppression,  and safety system. 
  • Faster exhaust system and  instant safety valve for closing  the gas supply.
