For spray aerosols, the evaluation is based on the flame length in the ignition distance test and, if applicable, the time equivalent or deflagration density in the enclosed space ignition test.<\/h2>\n<h3>Ignition distance test for spray aerosols<\/h3>\n<p>This test is used for aerosols with a spray distance of \u2265 15 cm and more.<\/p>\n<p>The aerosol is sprayed in the direction of an ignition source which is placed in each case at a distance interval of 15 cm (Figure 2). The aerosol is observed to determine whether it ignites and a sustained flame is produced. An ignition and sustained combustion is defined as a stable flame that persists for at least 5 s. The ignition source is a gas burner with a blue, non-luminescent flame 4-5 cm in height.<\/p>\n<p>If no ignition is observed during this test, the enclosed space ignition test must additionally be performed.<\/p>\n<p>The classification is made as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The aerosol is classified as extremely flammable if ignition occurs at a distance \u2265 75 cm.<\/li>\n<li>The aerosol is classified as flammable if ignition occurs at 15 cm \u2264 distance &lt; 75 cm.<\/li>\n<li>If no ignition or ignition &lt; 15 cm occurs in the ignition distance test, the result of the enclosed space ignition test is decisive.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Enclosed space ignition test for spray aerosols<\/h3>\n<p>This test is used for aerosols with a spray distance \u2265 15 cm, provided no ignition occurred in the ignition distance test.<br \/>\nThe contents of a pressurized aerosol dispenser are sprayed into a cylindrical test vessel containing a burning candle (Figure 5). If an observable ignition occurs, the elapsed time and discharged mass of aerosol are noted to evaluate the ignitability of the aerosol spray.<\/p>\n<p>The classification is as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The aerosol shall be classified as flammable if the time equivalent in the enclosed space ignition test is \u2264 300 s\/m3 or the deflagration density is \u2264 300 g\/m3.<\/li>\n<li>Otherwise, the aerosol is classified as non-flammable. For this classification, an enthalpy of combustion of &lt; 20 kJ\/g must also have been determined. If the enthalpy of combustion is \u2265 20 kJ\/g, the aerosol is to be classified as flammable, regardless of the result of the enclosed space ignition test.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The time equivalent is calculated according to:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11348 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/consilab.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/discharge-time.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"291\" height=\"50\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And the deflagration density is calculated according to:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11351\" src=\"https:\/\/consilab.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Amount-of-product-dispensed.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"50\" \/>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;11112&#8243;
