SCOPE

EN340

EN369

EN466

EN471

European standard - product specification (high visibility).

This standard specifies the requirements for protective clothing aiming to signal the presence of the wearer visually in daylight as well as under illumination by headlights of cars. These requirements cover the area of materials used, their colour and retroreflection

EN1073-1

European Standard -

This standard specifies the requirements and test methods for ventilated protective clothing against particulate radioactive contamination

ENV343

European Prestandard - Product specification (protection against foul weather)

This prestandard specifies the requirements for protective clothing against the effects of foul weather (precipitation, wind, low temperatures > -5 °C) The scope does not cover head, foot or hand protection.

EN366

European Standard - Test method

This standard specifies a test method to assess the behaviour (structural changes, heat transfer) of clothing materials and material assemblies when exposed to a radiant heat source, emitting a specific heat flux (in kW/m²)

EN373

European Standard - Test method

This standard specifies a test method to assess the resistance of materials and material assemblies to splashes of molten metals

EN467

European Standard - Product specification (partial body protection)

This standard specifies the requirements for protective clothing against liquid chemicals, covering only a part of the body, e.g. aprons, sleeves, hoods, trousers, gaiters, etc. Requirements cover properties (mechanical/chemical) of the materials and of the complete clothing.

EN510

European Standard - Product specification (moving machine parts)

This standard specifies the requirements for protective clothing designed for operators working with or near machines with uncovered moving parts. It does not cover specific risks specified in other standards, e.g. chain saws.

EN367

European Standard - Test method

This standard specifies a test method for comparing the heat transmission through materials or material assemblies used in protective clothing.

EN464

European Standard - Test method

This standard specifies a test method to assess the gastightness of a suit

EN469

European Standard - Product specification (fire fighters)

This standard specifies the requirements for protective clothing for structural fire fighting, considering mainly protection against heat and flame. This standard does not cover protective clothing for special tasks or risks, e.g. clean-up of chemical spills, forest fires, fire fighting at close proximity of the fire, assistance in road emergencies, etc.

EN531

European Standard - Product specification (industrial heat and flames)

This standard specifies the requirements for protective clothing against heat and flames.
Hoods and leg protectors are covered by the standard, whereas head, hand and foot protection are not.

EN368

European Standard - Test method

This standard specifies a test method for the measurement of the penetration of a liquid chemical through protective clothing

EN465

European Standard - Product specification (type 4 chemical protective clothing)

This standard specifies the requirements for protective clothing against liquid chemicals type 4 (spray-tight). Requirements cover properties (mechanical/chemical) of the materials and of the complete clothing.

EN470-1

European Standard - product specification (welding)

This standard specifies the requirements for protective clothing worn during welding operations. The standard covers protective clothing to be worn at ambient temperature for a 8 hour period and offering protection against small projections of molten metal, accidental contact with a flame, and UV radiation. The standard does not cover the protective clothing worn during special welding operations.

EN533

European Standard - material specification

 This standard specifies the requirements for the limited flame spread properties of materials and materialassemblies

ENV342

European Prestandard - Product specification (protection against cold)

This prestandard specifies the requirements for protective clothing against temperatures lower than -5°C. The scope does not cover head, foot or hand protection.

prEN1511

European draft standard - Product specification (type 3 limited use chemical protective clothing)

This draft standard specifies the requirements for protective clothing against liquid chemicals type 3 (liquid-tight). Requirements cover properties (mechanical/chemical) of the materials and of the complete clothing.

prEN943-1

Draft European Standard - Product specification (type 1 and 2 chemical protective clothing)

This standard specifies the requirements for protective clothing against liquid and gaseous chemicals (including aerosols)

EN1149-1

European Standard

This standard defines a test method and requirements for electrostatic properties of protective clothing.

prEN1512

Draft European Standard - Product specification (type 4 chemical protective clothing limited use)

This standard specifies the requirements for limited use protective clothing against liquid chemicals type 4 (spray-tight). Requirements cover properties (mechanical/chemical) of the materials and of the complete clothing.

EN13982-1

European Draft Standard

This standard specifies a test method which shall be used to assess the barrier efficiency against aerosols of dry, fine dusts. The test method is based on the testing principle for respiratory equipment for type 1 and type 2 chemical protective clothing and for protective clothing against radioactive contamination.

prEN13034

Draft European Standard - Product specification (type 6 chemical protective clothing)

This draft standard specifies the requirements for protective clothing (coverall or two pieces suit) against liquid chemicals (type 6). Requirements cover properties (mechanical/chemical) of the materials and of the complete clothing.

prEN1513

Draft European Standard - Product specification (limited use clothing - partial body protection)

This draft standard specifies the requirements for limited use protective clothing against liquid chemicals, covering only a part of the body, e.g. aprons, sleeves, hoods, trousers, gaiters, etc. Requirements cover properties (mechanical/chemical) of the materials and of the complete clothing

prEN1486

European Standard - Product specification (fire fighters)

This standard specifies test performance requirements for reflective protective clothing used in specialized fire fighting. This standard covers only protective clothing that relies on the ability to reflect intense radiant heat. This type of clothing may also be used for industrial applications involving high levels of radiant heat.
