Protective clothing against solid airborne particles including radioactive contamination - Part 1: Requirements and test methods for compressed air line ventilated protective clothing, protecting the body and the respiratory tract

This European Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for protective clothing, ventilated by an independent supply of air from an uncontaminated source, protecting the body and the respiratory system of the wearer against solid airborne particles including radioactive contamination. This kind of protective clothing can be provided with an emergency breathing facility.
This European Standard does not apply for the protection against ionizing radiation and the protection of patients against contamination with radioactive substances by diagnostic and/or therapeutic measures.
If additional protection against chemicals is required, reference should be made to the relevant standard and/or CEN/TR 15419.

Schutzkleidung gegen feste Partikel einschließlich radioaktiver Kontamination - Teil 1: Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren für belüftete Schutzkleidung, zum Schutz des Körpers und der Atemwege

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen an und Prüfverfahren für Schutzkleidung fest, die von einer unabhängigen Luftzufuhr aus einer nicht kontaminierten Quelle belüftet wird und den Körper sowie das Atemwegssystem des Trägers gegen feste Partikel einschließlich radioaktiver Kontamination schützt. Diese Art der Schutzkleidung kann mit einer Notatemluftversorgung ausgestattet sein.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht zum Schutz gegen ionisierende Strahlen und nicht zum Schutz von Patienten gegen Kontamination durch radioaktive Substanzen bei diagnostischen und/oder therapeutischen Maßnahmen.
Wenn zusätzlicher Schutz gegen Chemikalien erforderlich ist, sollte auf die maßgebliche Norm und/oder auf CEN/TR 15419 verwiesen werden.

Vêtements de protection contre les particules solides en suspension dans l'air, incluant la contamination radioactive - Partie 1: Exigences et méthodes des vêtements de protection ventilés par une adduction d’air comprimé protégeant le corps et le système respiratoire

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences et les méthodes d'essai applicables aux vêtements de protection, ventilés par une alimentation indépendante en air provenant d'une source non contaminée, protégeant le corps et le système respiratoire du porteur contre les particules solides en suspension dans l'air, incluant la contamination radioactive. Ce type de vêtement de protection peut être muni d’un système respiratoire d’urgence.
La présente Norme européenne ne s'applique pas à la protection contre les rayonnements ionisants et à la protection des patients contre la contamination par des substances radioactives résultant de mesures diagnostiques et/ou thérapeutiques.
Si une protection supplémentaire contre les produits chimiques est exigée, il convient de faire référence à la norme concernée et/ou au CEN/TR 15419.

— If the manufacturer’s instructions indicate that cleaning or disinfection is not allowed, i.e. single use
garments, no pretreatment is required.
— If the manufacturer’s instructions indicate that multiple use of garments is allowed, but that re-use
of the garment is not permitted once the garment has been contaminated, i.e. limited-use garments,
then testing shall be conducted on material which has been pre-treated by cleaning and disinfection
only. The cleaning and disinfection shall be in line with the manufacturer’s instructions, on the
basis of standardized procedures. If the number of cleaning and disinfection cycles is not specified,
the tests shall be carried out after 5 cycles of pre-treatment, each consisting of one wash cycle, one
dry cycle and one disinfection cycle carried out in the sequence as indicated by the manufacturer’s
instructions. This shall be reflected in the information supplied by the manufacturer. If the garment
can be washed or alternatively dry-cleaned it shall only be washed, dried and disinfected. If only
dry-cleaning is allowed, the garment shall only be dry-cleaned and disinfected in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions.
— If the manufacturer’s instructions indicate that cleaning, disinfection and decontamination is
allowed, testing shall be carried out on material, which has been pre-treated by cleaning,
disinfection and decontamination. If the number of cleaning, disinfection and decontamination
cycles is not specified, the tests shall be carried out after 5 cycles of pre-treatment, each consisting
of one cycle of pre-treatment by cleaning, disinfection and decontamination carried out in the
sequence as indicated in the manufacturer’s instructions. This shall be reflected in the information
supplied by the manufacturer. If the manufacturer’s instructions specify different decontamination
procedures for different hazards, testing shall be carried out on material which has been pre-
treated by cleaning, disinfection and decontamination according to each of listed decontamination
procedures, i.e. testing of as many pre-treated materials as there are specified decontamination
procedures.”

“The preconditioned samples shall also be pre-treated as follows:
— If the manufacturer’s instructions indicate that cleaning or disinfection is not allowed, i.e. single use

line with the manufacturer’s instructions, on the basis of standardized procedures. If the number of
cleaning and disinfection cycles is not specified, the tests shall be carried out after 5 cycles of pre-
treatment, each consisting of one wash cycle, one dry cycle and one disinfection cycle carried out in

cleaned it shall only be washed, dried and disinfected. If only dry-cleaning is allowed, the garment
