Fire-resistant Performance and Structural Test |

|
| |
| MASCOT Fire-resistant
Safes conform to the following standards: Japanese (JIS),
Korean (KS), Norwegian SINTEF, China CNAL standards and
are ISO 9001:2000 certified. |
 |
| In the testing,
MASCOT fire-resistant safes were subjected to the most
rigorous testing procedures to ensure their optimal perform
under all conditions. One of the tests simulates the worst
case scenario of a safe in a fire, falling through the
floor it rests on, and being subjected to another round
of intense fire after the impact of the fall. The impact
test gives extra assurance that the drawers will not jar
open, if the cabinet falls through a floor or is hit by
falling beams or debris. |

 |
Stage
1. Heating Test
The safe was placed in an air-tight gas furnace
and subjected to intense heat of 1010ĒJ (1850ĒK) for
120 minutes. |
 |
Stage
2. Dropping Test
After the incineration of Stage 1, while the safe
was still red hot, it was dropped from a height
of 4 meters onto hard ground to simulate the combined
effects of heat degradation and impact. |
 |
Stage
3. Reheating Test
Subsequent to Stage 2, the impacted safe was subjected
to another round of intense heating at 843ĒJ (1550ĒK)
for another 30 minutes to test its structural integrity. |
 |
The
Results
Some of the metal fittings on the external door
melted due to the heating, but the contents and
interior of the safe remained perfectly intact.
The internal temperature peaked at 120ĒJ, well below
the paper tolerance level of 177ĒJ. In fact, even
the color of the paper remained unchanged. |
