Protective clothing against chemicals - Test methods and performance classification of chemical protective clothing materials, seams, joins and assemblages

This European Standard specifies the performance classification and test methods for materials used in chemical protective clothing, including gloves and footwear. The gloves and boots should have the same chemical protective barrier requirements as the fabric when an integral part of the clothing. This is a reference standard to which chemical protective clothing performance standards may refer in whole or in part, but this standard is not exhaustive in the sense that product standards may well require testing according to test method standards which are not included in this standard.
While these performance levels are intended to relate to the usage to which the chemical protective clothing is to be put, it is essential that the chemical protective clothing manufacturer or supplier indicate the intended use of the protective clothing and that the user (specifier) carries out a risk assessment in order to establish the correct performance level for the intended task.

Schutzkleidung gegen Chemikalien - Prüfverfahren und Leistungseinstufung für Materialien, Nähte, Verbindungen und Verbünde

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Leistungseinstufung und Prüfverfahren für Materialien fest, die in Chemikalienschutzkleidung, einschließlich Handschuhen und Schuhwerk, verwendet werden. Die Handschuhe und das Schuhwerk sollten dieselben Anforderungen an die chemische Schutzwirkung erfüllen wie der Bekleidungsstoff, wenn sie einen integralen Bestandteil der Schutzkleidung darstellen. Die vorliegende Norm ist eine Bezugsnorm, auf die sich Normen, welche die Leistungsfähigkeit von Chemikalienschutzkleidung behandeln, vollständig oder in Teilen beziehen können. Jedoch ist diese Norm nicht erschöpfend in dem Sinne, dass Produktnormen durchaus eine Prüfung in Übereinstimmung mit Prüfverfahrensnormen erfordern können, welche in dieser Norm nicht enthalten sind.
Während es das Ziel dieser Leistungsstufen ist, die Beziehung zur Verwendung herzustellen, bei der die Chemikalienschutzkleidung getragen werden soll, ist es wesentlich, dass der Hersteller oder Lieferant der Schutzkleidung die bestimmungsgemäße Verwendung der Schutzkleidung anzeigt und dass der (die Verwendung bestimmende) Anwender eine Risikobewertung durchführt, um die richtige Leistungsstufe für die vorgesehene Aufgabe festzulegen.

Habillement de protection contre les produits chimiques - Méthodes d'essai et classification de performance des matériaux, coutures, jonctions et assemblages des vêtements de protection chimique

La présente Norme européenne spécifie la classification de la performance et les méthodes d’essai pour les matériaux utilisés dans les vêtements de protection chimique, y compris les gants et les chaussures. Lorsque les gants et les bottes font partie intégrante du vêtement, il convient que les exigences en matière de barrière de protection chimique auxquelles ils sont soumis soient les mêmes pour que pour les étoffes. Il s’agit d’une norme de référence à laquelle les normes de performance des vêtements de protection chimique peuvent faire référence en tout ou partie, mais cette norme n’est pas exhaustive, au sens où les normes de produits peuvent aussi exiger des essais selon des normes de méthodes d’essai qui ne figurent pas dans la présente norme.
Bien que ces niveaux de performance soient destinés à s’appliquer à l’utilisation pour laquelle le vêtement de protection chimique doit être revêtu, il est essentiel que le fabricant ou le fournisseur de ce vêtement de protection chimique précise l'usage pour lequel il est prévu et que l’utilisateur (le spécificateur) procède à une appréciation des risques afin d’établir le niveau de performance correct pour la tâche prévue.

Varovalne obleke pred kemikalijami - Preskusne metode in zahteve za razvrščanje materialov za izdelavo varovalnih oblek, šivanje, spajanje in sestavljanje

Ta evropski standard določa metode za razvrščanje učinkovitosti in preskusne metode za materiale, ki se uporabljajo v oblekah za zaščito pred kemikalijami, vključno z rokavicami in obutvijo, kadar je obutev bistveni del takšne obleke, ter za šivanje, spajanje in sestavljanje. To je referenčni standard, na katerega se lahko v delu ali celoti sklicujejo standardi o učinkovitosti oblek za zaščito pred kemikalijami, vendar ta standard ni izčrpen v smislu, da lahko standardi o izdelkih zahtevajo preskušanje v skladu s standardi o preskusnih metodah, ki niso vključeni v tem standardu.
Za nekatere standarde o preskusnih metodah za obleke za zaščito pred kemikalijami, sklicevane v tem evropskem standardu, ta evropski standard spreminja zahteve za pogojevanje, vzorčenje, izračunavanje preskusnih rezultatov in poročanje. V teh primerih ima ta standard prednost pred sklicevanimi standardi o preskusnih metodah.
OPOMBA:   Čeprav naj bi bile te ravni učinkovitosti povezane z izbrano vrsto uporabe oblek za zaščito pred kemikalijami, je bistvenega pomena, da proizvajalec oziroma dobavitelj oblek za zaščito pred kemikalijami nakaže njihovo predvideno uporabo in da uporabnik (določitelj) izvede oceno tveganja z namenom, da se vzpostavi ustrezna raven učinkovitosti za predvideno opravilo. To naj bi bilo vključeno kot obvezna zahteva v informacijah, ki jih pošlje proizvajalec v standardu o izdelku.

10 min NOTE 1 It can be dangerous to base considerations of safe wear time of given chemical protective clothing only on the value of normalized breakthrough time for a specific tested chemical. NOTE 2 For example, in the case that the permeation rate for a given clothing material and tested chemical remains slightly below 1,0 µg/(cm2·min) for greater than or equal to 480 min, this material can be rated class 6 for this chemical according to Table 7, but the cumulative permeated mass during the 480 min will be only slightly below 480 µg/cm2. This level of permeation can be dangerous depending of the toxicity of the chemical. NOTE 3 Chemical protective clothing materials should thus be better evaluated with respect to cumulative permeation and classified by cumulative permeation time, i.e. by the time to the amount of cumulative permeated mass, to which the skin can be exposed with regard to the skin/dermal toxicity of the tested chemical/mixture. 4.11.3 Classification of permeation resistance by cumulative permeation time When tested in accordance with ISO 6529, Method A (liquids) or Method B (gases) the average time to reach the cumulative permeated mass determined based on the skin/dermal toxicity classification of the chemical (see Annex D, Table D.1), to be tested, shall be classified according to the levels of performance given in Table 8. The resultant average value for the time to cumulative permeation, determined according to ISO 6529 and in accordance with Annex C, shall be used for the purpose of performance rating and classification.
