Spray Flammability Testing

• Mimics a burst or punctured hydraulic line

• Fluid is sheared.
• Pressure of 6 MPa (~870 psi) is applied
• Propane gas burner is used as the flame source
• Fluid is sprayed through a 0.38 mm nozzle into
the propane flame.
• Measurements are taken
• Spray Flammability Parameter is calculated
• Fluid is classified according to the SFP

Old – Spray Test – New
• Test gave a pass/fail • New test measures
result – ignitability
• Test could be – Heat release
manipulated by adding • Fluid is sheared prior to
polymers
testing
• No distinction between
fluid types • New test distinguishes
between fluids
– Four group types
• No incentive for a
safer fluid • Spray Flammability

The fluid classification
Non Flammable Fluid
Group 0
SFP <4 + Net Heat of Combustion <4kJ/g

Less Flammable Fluid. SFP<4

Group 1 Fluid is unable to stabilise a spray flame

Less Flammable Fluid. 4<SFP <8

Group 2 Fluid may stabilize a spray flame

Less Flammable Fluid. SFP>8

Group 3 Fluid's flammability close to that of
mineral oil 

Group Rating by Fluid type

• Typically:
– High Water products Group 0
– Water glycolsGroup 1
– Phosphate esters Group 1
– Polyol esters Group 2 & 3
– Polyglycols Group 2
– Polyalphaolefins Group 3
– Mineral oils Group 3
• Factory Mutual do not give class approvals
– i.e. - 'all water glycols are Group 1'
• Testing is required for each product
