This document specifies the test methods and minimum performance requirements for personal protective clothing, designed to protect the wearer’s body, except for the head, hands, feet, eyes and ears used during wildfire suppression and associated activities. This clothing is not intended to provide protection during fire entrapment or structural fire extinguishing, rescue, or to protect against chemical, biological, electrical, or radiation hazards. This document does not provide protection against elevated mechanical hazards such as protection when using chainsaws.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”REQUIREMENTS” tab_id=”1686219028087-b2c81765-776e”][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=”no” text_larger=”no”]SAMPLES AND PRE-TREATMENT<\/p>\n

Samples must be representative. There are tests that are required in original and\/or after cleaning.<\/p>\n

The pretreatment of the fabric will be 5 cycles and\/or according to the manufacturer’s indications<\/p>\n

For the flame propagation and heat transfer assay, the assays will be performed before and after pre-treatment.<\/p>\n

Before all the tests and after having carried out the specified pre-treatment, the samples will be conditioned according to ISO 139 for a minimum of 24 hours
\n(20 \u00b1 2 \u00baC with a relative humidity of 65 \u00b1 5%). Tests must be performed within 5 minutes of removal from the conditioner.<\/p>\n

EXPRESSION OF RESULTS:<\/p>\n

All test sample results must be reported together with the result calculated according to the test method.<\/p>\n

For each test, the corresponding estimate of the coefficient of variation (CV %) for laboratory assay variability (without taking into account sample variability) shall be given.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Protective garments can be composed of:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Coveralls<\/li>\n
  • Protective suit provided with an interface overlay area<\/li>\n
  • A series of undergarments and\/or outerwear designed to be worn together<\/li>\n
  • All clothing should have a collar that surrounds and protects the neck with a closure system.<\/li>\n
  • Pockets with external openings shall be made of materials with performance levels equal to or higher than those of the outer cover.<\/li>\n
  • Retroreflective and fluorescent material or combination material shall adhere to the external surface of the PPE and provide all-round visibility with at least one band surrounding the arms, legs and torso.<\/li>\n
  • The pants must have a closure system that provides protection between the end of the pants and the footwear. This overlap must be maintained as long as you make any movement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The general requirements must comply with ISO 13688. They must not restrict the user in any of the movements expected to be made during the spread of wildfires, e.g., bending, stretching, and twisting.<\/p>\n

    Closure systems, label accessories, contact and closure fasteners, retro-reflective and\/or fluorescent materials… Attached to personal protective clothing should be designed not to adversely affect the performance of the clothing. These locking systems must prevent debris from entering the flames.<\/p>\n

    Conformity will be assessed through visual inspection and practical tests[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=”no” text_larger=”no”][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”MARKING AND LABELING” tab_id=”1686219395199-cf5459fd-4453″][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=”no” text_larger=”no”]MARKING AND LABELING<\/p>\n

    Any tag or accessory must not adversely affect the performance of any item to which it is attached or pose a hazard to the wearer.<\/p>\n

    The durability and legitimacy of the label after washing, heat and abrasion resistance (200 ISO 12947-2 12 kPa cycles) must remain legible.<\/p>\n

    Each item of protective clothing for which compliance with this standard is declared must bear a permanent and visibly affixed label, on which the following information must be printed in letters of at least 2.0 mm in height:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Type designation as appropriate<\/li>\n
    2. Name, trademark, or other means of identifying the manufacturer<\/li>\n
    3. Style\/Model Designation<\/li>\n
    4. Size<\/li>\n
    5. Reference to this international standard, ISO 15384<\/li>\n
    6. Material composition<\/li>\n
    7. The pictogram in Figure 1.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
