Introduction
In many cases single garments are placed on the market to protect against local body cooling (for
ensembles see EN 342). These garments can be e.g. waistcoats, jackets, coats or trousers and/or
separable thermal linings. They can provide a certain degree of protection to cool environment for a
certain length of time, depending e.g. on the personal constitution and activity, the accompanying
clothing and the environmental features (wind speed, temperature, humidity). In critical situations
(e.g. combination of cold, moisture and wind, long exposure duration, no help nearby) it is important to
assess the cold protection properties of the garment (see Annex C), especially if the user cannot safely
identify the risk at moderate low temperatures above −5 °C in an appropriate time.
At moderate low temperatures above −5 °C garments against local body cooling are not only used for
outdoor activities e.g. in construction industry but can be used for indoor activities e.g. in food
processing industry. In these cases garments often do not need to be made of watertight or air
impermeable materials. Therefore, in this European Standard, these requirements are applicable if the
manufacturer claims in his instructions for use protection for hazards covered by these properties.

The resultant effective thermal insulation value can be used to assess temperature ranges
cler
according to Tables C.1 and C.2.
If exposure to wet conditions is expected, EN 343 applies.

NOTE The maximum level of protection is given when the thermal insulation is adapted to the ambient
temperature and the activity level (examples are given in Annex C). In this case the wearer is in a thermally
neutral state. A too high thermal insulation leads to excessive sweating and wetting the garments. As a
consequence the effective thermal insulation of the garment is lowered.

Garments containing materials with a thermal resistance above 0,25 m K/W shall comply with 4.6.
4.3 Air permeability, AP
If the information supplied by the manufacturer indicates that the garment may be used outdoors, the
air permeability shall be classified in accordance with Table 2, when the material of the garment is
tested in accordance with 6.4.

Class 1 material layers of a garment should be considered as appropriate for low air velocities of less
than 1 m/s as e.g. in cool indoor environments.
Class 2 material layers should be appropriate for air velocities of less than 5 m/s.
NOTE Class 3 materials are appropriate for high air velocities ≥ 5 m/s e.g. common in outdoor activities.
