Fire testing supports qualification, certification, compliance and engineering validation where materials, components, assemblies or systems must demonstrate controlled performance under flame, heat, smoke, ignition or thermal runaway conditions.
Resonate Testing helps customers define the applicable standard, exposure method, operating condition, instrumentation and evidence package before test work begins.
Lithium battery fire testing is used to understand ignition risk, thermal runaway behaviour, propagation pathways and the effectiveness of containment or mitigation materials.
Typical test interests
Planning inputs
Cabin and cargo-area fire testing helps demonstrate how materials and assemblies behave when exposed to ignition, flame spread, heat release, smoke, toxicity or burn-through conditions.
Powerplant and systems fire testing provides objective evidence that aircraft hardware can withstand defined fire scenarios under representative installation and operating conditions.
R100 fire testing can be planned around the customer’s specification, exposure condition and acceptance criteria, with the test setup built to reflect the material, product or installation being assessed.
| Specification | Capability |
|---|---|
| Aircraft cabin flammability | Material, component and assembly response to ignition, flame spread, heat release, smoke and toxicity requirements. |
| Cargo liner testing | Burn-through, flame penetration, panel joint, repair and installation-detail assessments. |
| Powerplant fire testing | Fireproof and fire-resistant demonstrations for engine-zone hardware, nacelles, firewalls and flammable-fluid systems. |
| Aircraft systems fire testing | Operational testing of fluid, electrical and mechanical systems exposed to heat or flame under representative conditions. |
| Lithium battery fire testing | Thermal runaway, propagation, containment, venting, smoke, flame and post-event evidence for cells, modules, packs and equipment. |
| Battery transport materials testing | Packaging, containment, insulation and mitigation materials used to support safer storage and transport of batteries. |
| R100 fire testing | Fire exposure and material performance testing aligned to customer R100 requirements and defined acceptance criteria. |
Share the material, component or system type, relevant standard or R100 requirement, exposure condition, operating state, acceptance criteria and any drawings or test profiles. Resonate Testing can confirm the proposed test route, accreditation position and evidence package before quotation.
