Protective clothing - Clothing to protect against heat and flame (ISO 11612:2008)

ISO 11612:2008 specifies performance requirements for garments made from flexible materials, which are designed to protect the wearer's body, except the hands, from heat and/or flame. For protection of the wearer's head and feet, the only items of protective clothing falling within the scope of this International Standard are gaiters, hoods and overboots. However, concerning hoods, requirements for visors and respiratory equipment are not given.
The performance requirements set out in ISO 11612:2008 are applicable to garments which could be worn for a wide range of end uses, where there is a need for clothing with limited flame spread properties and where the user can be exposed to radiant or convective or contact heat or to molten metal splashes.

Schutzkleidung - Kleidung zum Schutz gegen Hitze und Flammen (ISO 11612:2008)

In dieser Internationalen Norm werden Leistungsanforderungen an Kleidung festgelegt, die aus flexiblen Materialien besteht und zum Schutz des Körpers, ausgenommen der Hände, von Personen gegen Hitze und/oder Flammen vorgesehen ist. Zum Schutz von Kopf und Füßen sind nur Gamaschen, Überschuhe und Hauben im Anwendungsbereich dieser Internationalen Norm enthalten. In Bezug auf Hauben werden jedoch keine Anforderungen an Sichtscheiben und Atemgeräte gegeben.
Die Leistungsanforderungen nach dieser Internationalen Norm gelten für Kleidung, die für einen weiten Bereich von Anwendungen vorgesehen ist und bei der begrenzte Flammenausbreitung erforderlich ist und wo der Träger Strahlungswärme, konvektiver oder Kontaktwärme oder Spritzern geschmolzenen Metalls ausgesetzt ist.
Diese Internationale Norm gilt nicht für Schutzkleidung die in anderen Internationalen Normen festgelegt ist, wie z. B. für Brandbekämpfung in Gebäuden oder für Schweißarbeiten oder ähnliche Prozesse.

Vêtements de protection - Vêtements de protection contre la chaleur et les flammes (ISO 11612:2008)

L'ISO 11612:2008 spécifie les exigences de performance relatives aux articles d'habillement fabriqués avec des matériaux souples, conçus pour protéger le corps humain, sauf les mains, contre la chaleur et/ou la flamme. Pour la protection de la tête et des pieds, les seuls articles d'habillement de protection relevant du domaine d'application de la présente Norme internationale sont les guêtres, les cagoules et les couvre-chaussures. Toutefois, en ce qui concerne les cagoules, aucune exigence n'est donnée pour les visières et les appareils respiratoires.
Les exigences de performance fournies dans l'ISO 11612:2008 sont applicables aux articles d'habillement qui pourraient être portés pour un large éventail d'utilisations finales, où il existe un besoin de vêtements offrant des propriétés de propagation de flamme limitée et où le porteur peut être exposé à une chaleur émise par rayonnement, par convection ou par contact ou à des projections/éclaboussures de métal en fusion.
