Railway Toxicity Testing Equipment

Railway Toxicity Testing Equipment – EN 45545-2, ISO Toxic Gas Standards | KDM Global

Product Overview:

KDM Global is a leading manufacturer and exporter of Railway Toxicity Testing Equipment built specifically to meet the rigorous requirements of EN 45545-2 and ISO toxic gas standards. Our systems are designed to accurately detect and quantify hazardous gases released during the combustion of materials used in railway interiors, such as carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen cyanide (HCN), hydrogen chloride (HCl), and others.

Backed by precision engineering and global compliance, our instruments are used by metro authorities, OEMs, coach manufacturers, and accredited fire laboratories for safety verification and certification of rail materials.

Importance of Toxicity Testing in Railways:

In the event of a fire in a train or metro, toxic gases released from burning materials pose a greater risk to passengers than the flames themselves. The EN 45545-2 standard sets specific toxicity limits depending on the hazard level (HL1 to HL3) of the railway application. KDM Global’s toxicity testers help ensure materials meet these stringent safety parameters.

Key Standards Supported:

• EN 45545-2 Annex C: Specifies maximum concentration of gases (CO, CO₂, HCN, HCl, HF, SO₂, NOx)

• ISO 19702: Toxic gas analysis by FTIR

• ISO 5660-1: Cone calorimeter-based testing

• ISO 5659-2: Smoke chamber-based gas collection

Product Variants:

1. FTIR Toxic Gas Analyzer (Integrated System)

   • Real-time gas detection during fire testing

   • Simultaneous multi-gas measurement (up to 10 gases)

   • Software-controlled with automatic calibration

   • Compatible with smoke density and cone calorimeter setups

2. Standalone Toxic Gas Sampling Apparatus
