The figure shows an outdoor view of the Duisburg Fire Detection Laboratory
The laboratory is designed and equipped for experiments of the following types:
Fire tests in the incipient stage of a fire
Experiments concerning the distribution of smoke and gaseous products for variable conditions,
e.g. incipient fires with and without thermal development
Test series with various standardized procedures
The laboratory is not determined as a test laboratory for routine checks. The equipment as well as
the possibilities of varying the room geometry qualifies this laboratory for basic investigations.
Non-fire experiments with variable ventilation conditions or changeable room geometry.
