  Airborne Solid Particle Protection Type 5

  EN ISO 13982-1:2004/A1:2010 is a European standard aimed at evaluating the protective capabilities of clothing against airborne solid particles. Its primary objective is to ensure that protective clothing offers effective protection to wearers from solid particle hazards encountered in various occupational environments. The designation Type 5 indicates the level of protection provided by the clothing against airborne solid particles, specifically those larger than 5 micrometers in size. This result signifies that the clothing material is suitable for environments where exposure to such particles is prevalent, such as construction sites or industrial settings where dust and powders are present. The test method used to determine this result typically involves subjecting the clothing material to aerosolized solid particles and assessing its ability to prevent the penetration of particles larger than 5 micrometers in size. Practical implications of this result for the product category include ensuring that protective clothing effectively safeguards workers from inhaling hazardous solid particles, thereby reducing the risk of respiratory illnesses and injuries in occupational settings where exposure to airborne solid particles is a concern.

• EN 13034:2005

  EN 13034:2005 is a European standard that specifies the requirements and test methods for Type 6 protective clothing designed to provide protection against liquid chemicals. This standard sets criteria for the fabric's resistance to penetration by liquid chemicals and establishes guidelines for the overall design and construction of the clothing. It ensures that Type 6 protective clothing offers reliable protection for workers in industries where they may be exposed to liquid chemical hazards, but it may not be suitable for protection against airborne particles.

  Liquid Chemical Protection Type 6 PB

  EN 13034:2005 specifies the performance requirements for protective clothing that offers limited protection against liquid chemicals, identified specifically as Type 6 PB (partial body protection). The 'Type 6 PB' designation implies that the protective garment has been tested and confirmed to provide effective defense against light spray and minor splashes of liquid chemicals, but only for parts of the body such as aprons, sleeves, or boots rather than full body suits. This standard tests the fabric's barrier effectiveness by applying a defined volume of liquid to the garment and assessing any penetration or repellence under controlled laboratory conditions. Garments achieving Type 6 PB classification are crucial for tasks in industries like chemical processing or handling where full body coverage is unnecessary, thereby offering flexibility and targeted protection, reducing the risk of chemical exposure to critical areas of the body.

• EN 1149-5:2018

  EN 1149-5:2018 is a European standard that specifies the requirements for electrostatic dissipative (ESD) gloves. This standard defines performance requirements for material, design, and testing of ESD gloves. The gloves must be able to effectively discharge static electricity and protect the wearer from ESD. Testing includes measuring the surface resistance of the glove material and electrical resistance of the glove. Pass/fail results are based on the gloves meeting or not meeting the specified requirements.

  Material Performance Tested

  The standard EN 1149-5:2018 pertains to the performance of materials with regard to their electrostatic properties, specifically testing for the charge decay characteristics. The test result Tested signifies that the material has been evaluated according to the specified methods and met the defined criteria for electrostatic properties under this standard. To determine this result, a set of specific test methods is deployed to assess the decay of electrostatic charge from the surface of the material. The test involves subjecting the material to an electrostatic charge and then measuring the rate and manner in which this charge dissipates. This ensures that materials such as those used in protective clothing are safe for use in environments where electrostatic discharge could pose a hazard, such as in certain industrial or medical settings where flammable substances are present. For procurement professionals, understanding that a product has been tested and meets EN 1149-5:2018 standards is crucial as it ensures the product's safety and suitability in environments susceptible to electrostatic risks.

• EN 14126:2003/AC:2004

  EN 14126:2003, along with the amendment AC:2004, is a European standard that specifically addresses protective clothing designed to provide protection against infectious agents, including viruses and bacteria. The standard outlines the requirements and test methods for evaluating the material's resistance to penetration by microorganisms. The amendment AC:2004 introduces updates and refinements to enhance the performance and reliability of the protective clothing, ensuring improved protection for individuals exposed to biological hazards. Compliance with EN 14126:2003 and its amendment ensures that the protective clothing meets the necessary standards for barrier protection against infectious agents.

• EN 13688:2013

  EN 13688:2013 is a European standard that specifies the performance requirements for protective clothing. The standard includes requirements for safety, comfort, and durability, as well as tests for determining these properties. Protective clothing includes items like coveralls, aprons, and gloves that are worn to protect the wearer from hazards. Possible test results include resistance to chemicals, heat, abrasion and tearing, as well as breathability and comfort. The clothing can be tested under different conditions to check if it meets the standard's requirements.

• EN 1073-2:2002

  EN 1073-2:2002 is a European standard that defines the requirements for measuring and evaluating the resistance of textiles to penetration of airborne radioactive particles. The standard includes procedures for measuring the ability of textile materials to prevent the penetration of radioactive particles through the fabric. The performance requirements specify the conditions for testing, as well as the evaluation criteria for determining resistance. Possible test results include a rating on a scale of 1-5, with 5 indicating the highest level of resistance to particle penetration.

• CE Marking

  CE Marking is a label that shows a product meets certain safety and environmental standards set by the European Union. To get the CE Marking, a company must test and certify their product meets these standards. CE Marking is required for many products sold in the EU, including electronics, machinery, toys and medical devices. It helps ensure that products are safe for consumers and the environment, and allows for easy trade within the EU.

• PPE Category 3

  PPE stands for "personal protective equipment." PPE Category 3 refers to equipment that is complex and provide the highest level of protection such as powered respirators, SCBA, and full body suits. In Europe, PPE Category 3 must meet certain safety standards set by the European Union, which means that it must be designed and manufactured to protect the user without causing harm. Companies that make or sell PPE must prove that it meets these standards. They also must have a quality management system in place, have to be audited regularly by a notified body and have to have a technical documentation.
