1st test series 506 0.12 40
2nd test series 511 0.12 50
3rd test series 489 0.18 48
4th test series 479 0.23 79
5th test series 481 0.23 85

The tests were performed at an atmospheric pressure of 990 mbar - 100 mbar.

From these test runs a correctred* auto-ignition-temperature of 472°C results.

* Correction performed according to EN 14522.
