NFPA 290 Standard for Fire Testing of Passive Protection Materials for Use on LP-Gas Containers
NFPA 290 使用液化石油氣容器作為被動保護材料火災試驗標準
1.1* Scope. The test described in this procedure shall be used to determine the fire resistance of passive fire protection (PFP) materials applied to the exterior of LP-Gas containers.
Maximize the fire resistance of LP-Gas containers by following the test method in the 2009 NFPA 290.
Follow the criteria in the 2009 NFPA 290 Standard for Fire Testing of Passive Protection Materials for Use on LP-Gas Containers to evaluate the fire performance characteristics of passive protection materials utilized as a component of a liquefied petroleum (LP) gas container. This test method was derived from one that previously appeared in an annex of NFPA 58 Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code. The purpose of this procedure is to identify thermal protection insulating systems that retard or prevent the release of the container's contents in a fire environment. The 2009 edition contains minor revisions to clarify committee intent. (Softbound, 9 pp., 2009)
