  Reflective Strip Area Grade 1

  The standard EN ISO 20471:2013 specifies requirements for high visibility clothing, ensuring that individuals are visible in various lighting conditions. A Grade 1 result for the Reflective Strip Area indicates that reflective tape is 0.10 m2 and fluorescent material is 0.14 m2. Grade 1 products are suitable for environments with lower risk levels where visibility is nonetheless essential. The test method for determining this grade involves measuring the area and reflectivity of strips on clothing under different light conditions, ensuring that they meet predefined criteria for visibility as outlined by EN ISO 20471:2013. In practice, a Grade 1 result means clothing is suitable for use in situations with ample separation from traffic or other hazards and where visibility is not compromised by environmental factors. This grade is typically suited for workers on sites where vehicles and equipment move at slow speeds .

  Low-voltage Circuit Arc APC 1

  The standard EN IEC 61482-1-2:2018 outlines methods for testing the protection level of materials and garments against the thermal hazards of electrical arcs. Specifically, the APC (Arc Protection Class) 1 rating indicates a specific performance category under this standard, which reflects the minimum level of protection offered by the material or clothing against the thermal effects of an electric arc. The test method used involves a directed and constrained arc, commonly known as the 'Box test'. In this method, the sample material or garment is exposed to a defined electric arc within a controlled box setup to simulate realistic arc flash conditions. The parameters like arc current, duration, and the geometry of the setup are defined strictly to ensure reproducibility and comparability of results. The APC rating derived from this test provides essential data for industries, where workers are exposed to electrical hazards, enabling the selection of appropriate safety clothing that meets regulated safety standards to protect against potential thermal risks posed by electrical arcs. This testing not only assures compliance with safety regulations but also significantly contributes to the enhancement of occupational safety in environments with electrical arc hazards.

• 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.

  Welding Protection Class 1

  The standard EN 11611:2015 establishes criteria for protective clothing used during welding and allied processes, specifically regarding safety to reduce the risk of harm from sparks, spatter, and other hazards associated with welding. In this context, a Class 1 test result indicates the clothing provides basic protection suitable for less hazardous welding techniques where lower levels of spatter and radiant heat are anticipated. The test for this classification involves subjecting the fabric to controlled ignition and monitoring its resistance to flame spread, heat transfer, and the formation of holes. The fabric material must neither ignite nor continue to burn after the source of ignition is removed. In practical terms, products achieving Class 1 under EN 11611:2015 are suitable for types of welding that produce lower spatter and radiant heat, making them ideal for less intense welding operations but not for those that involve higher risks that might require more robust protective gear categorized in higher classes.
