The invention relates to the technical field of cable
combustion performance detection, in particular to cable
combustion smoke measurement equipment and an automatic calibration method. The equipment comprises an attenuation slice switching device, a test box, a
smoke exhaust pipeline and a control device, the attenuation slice switching device is provided with a plurality of attenuation slices, the light
transmittance of the attenuation slices is sequentially increased from 0% to 100%, a
smoke outlet is formed in the top of the test box, and the inlet end of the smoke exhaust pipeline is arranged above the smoke outlet; the middle of the smoke exhaust pipeline is communicated in the radial direction to form two opposite open holes, a
white light source and a photoelectric
detector are arranged at the two open holes respectively, and the attenuation piece switching device, the
white light source and the photoelectric
detector are all electrically connected with the control device. The control device controls the attenuation slice switching device to switch attenuation slices with various light transmittances to be blocked between the
white light source and the photoelectric
detector; the method is used for automatically calibrating the equipment. According to the cable
combustion smoke measurement equipment and the automatic calibration method, the operation is simple, and the calibration effect is good.
