Protective gloves - Electrostatic properties

EN 16350 provides additional requirements for protective gloves that are worn in areas where flammable or explosive areas exist or might be present (see IEC 60079-32-1). It specifies a test method and requirements for performance, marking and information for electrostatic dissipative protective gloves to minimize explosion risks. This European Standard does not cover: - protection of electronic devices; - protection against mains voltages; - insulative protective gloves for live working (EN 60903); - protective gloves for welders (EN 12477). The requirements may not be sufficient in oxygen enriched flammable atmospheres. This European Standard should be used with the specific standards applicable to the risks for which the glove is designed.

Schutzhandschuhe - Elektrostatische Eigenschaften

Diese Norm stellt zusätzliche Anforderungen an Schutzhandschuhe, die in explosionsgefährdeten Bereichen getragen werden, auf. Sie spezifiziert ein Prüfverfahren sowie Anforderungen an die Leistung, Kennzeichnung und Informationen zu elektrostatisch ableitfähigen Schutzhandschuhen, um das Risiko einer Explosion so gering wie möglich zu halten.
Durch Handschuhe aus isolierendem Material werden in der Hand gehaltene Gegenstände von Erde isoliert, so dass sie sich gefährlich aufladen können. Sofern Handschuhe in Bereichen notwendig sind, in denen z. B. brennbare oder explosionsfähige Atmosphären existieren oder existieren können, dürfen nur elektrostatisch ableitfähige Schutzhandschuhe in Kombination mit einer speziell geeigneten Ausrüstung (z. B. Bekleidung, Schuhe, Erdung) getragen werden (siehe CLC/TR 50404).
Diese Norm behandelt nicht:
-   Schutz elektronischer Geräte;
-   Schutz vor Netzspannungen;
-   isolierende Schutzhandschuhe für Arbeiten unter Spannung (EN 60903:2003);
-   Schutzhandschuhe für Schweißer (EN 12477:2001+A1:2005).
Die Anforderungen sind möglicherweise für brennbare Atmosphären, welche mit Sauerstoff angereichert sind, nicht ausreichend.
Diese Norm ist gemeinsam mit den speziellen Normen anzuwenden, die auf die Risiken zutreffen, für die die Handschuhe entwickelt wurden.
ANMERKUNG   Elektrostatisch ableitfähige Schutzhandschuhe sind nur wirksam, wenn der Träger über einen Wider-stand von weniger als 108  geerdet ist (z. B. indem er geeignetes Schuhwerk wie Sicherheitsschuhe nach EN ISO 20345:2004 sowie Bekleidung nach EN 1149-5 trägt).

Gants de protection - Propriétés électrostatiques

La présente Norme fournit des exigences supplémentaires pour les gants de protection qui sont portés dans les zones explosives. Elle spécifie une méthode d'essai et des exigences concernant les performances, le marquage et des informations applicables aux gants de protection à dissipation électrostatique pour réduire le plus possible les risques d'explosion.
Les gants fabriqués en un matériau isolant peuvent isoler de la terre les articles tenus à la main, ce qui les rend dangereux en raison de leur charge. Par conséquent, si le port de gants est nécessaire dans des zones renfermant ou pouvant renfermer des atmosphères inflammables ou explosives, seuls des gants de protection à dissipation électrostatique associés à un équipement spécifique adéquat peuvent être utilisés (par exemple, un article d'habillement, des chaussures, une mise à la terre) (voir CLC/TR 50404).
La présente norme ne traite pas :
-   de la protection des dispositifs électroniques ;
-   de la protection contre les tensions du réseau ;
-   des gants de protection isolants pour travaux sous tension (EN 60903:2003) ;
-   des gants de protection pour soudeurs (EN 12477:2001+A1:2005).
Ces exigences peuvent se révéler insuffisantes dans les atmosphères inflammables enrichies en oxygène.
La présente Norme doit être utilisée en association avec les normes spécifiques applicables aux risques pour lesquels le gant est conçu.
NOTE   Les gants de protection à dissipation électrostatique ne sont efficaces que si le porteur est relié à la terre par une résistance inférieure à 108  (par exemple, en portant des chaussures adaptées telles que des chaussures de sécurité conformes à l'EN ISO 20345:2004, et des articles d'habillement conformes à l'EN 1149-5).

Varovalne rokavice - Elektrostatične lastnosti

Standard EN 16350 določa dodatne zahteve za zaščitne rokavice, ki se uporabljajo na območjih, kjer na določenih področjih morda obstaja nevarnost ognja ali eksplozije (glej IEC 60079-32-1). Določa preskusne metode in zahteve za lastnosti, označevanje in informacije za elektrostatične disipativne zaščitne rokavice za zmanjšanje nevarnosti eksplozije. Ta evropski standard ne zajema: - zaščite elektronskih naprav; - zaščite pred omrežnimi napetostmi; - izolacijske zaščitne rokavice za delo pod napetostjo (EN 60903); - zaščitne rokavice za varilce (EN 12477). Zahteve morda ne zadostujejo za področja, obogatena s kisikom in z vnetljivim ozračjem. Ta evropski standard naj se uporablja s posebnimi standardi, ki veljajo za nevarnosti, za katere so te rokavice zasnovane.
