    "Eye and face protection — Protection against laser radiation — Part 1: Requirements and test methods"
    Title

    "Eye and face protection — Protection against laser radiation — Part 1: Requirements and test methods"

    This document was developed in response to the worldwide stakeholders' demand for minimum requirements and test methods for laser eye and face protectors traded internationally.

    Preparation of this document aimed to draw upon the best aspects of these preceding standards, and offer improvements where appropriate. The document was developed by a Joint Working Group involving experts from ISO/TC 94/SC 6 (Eye and Face Protection) and IEC/TC 76 (Optical Radiation Safety and Laser Equipment), to bring together the two aspects of personal protection and laser safety.

    In the general context of eye and face protection ISO 4007 gives the terms and definitions. The test methods are given in the ISO 18526 series, while the requirements for occupational eye and face protectors are given in the ISO 16321 series. Eye protectors for specific sports are mostly dealt with by the ISO 18527 series. ISO 19734 is a guidance document for the selection, use and maintenance of eye and face protectors.

    A guidance document addressing selection and use of personal eye and face protection against lasers is currently under development and will form a guide to users of protectors described in this document.

    "Acoustics -- Estimation of noise-induced hearing loss"
    Title

    "Acoustics -- Estimation of noise-induced hearing loss"

    ISO 1999:2013 specifies a method for calculating the expected noise-induced permanent threshold shift in the hearing threshold levels of adult populations due to various levels and durations of noise exposure; it provides the basis for calculating hearing disability according to various formulae when the hearing threshold levels at commonly measured audiometric frequencies, or combinations of such frequencies, exceed a certain value. The measure of exposure to noise for a population at risk is the noise exposure level normalized to a nominal 8 h working day, LEX,8h, for a given number of years of exposure. ISO 1999:2013 applies to noise at frequencies less than approximately 10 kHz which is steady, intermittent, fluctuating, irregular. Use of ISO 1999:2013 for sound pressures exceeding 200 Pa (140 dB relative to 20 µPa) is recognized as extrapolation.

    "Personal equipment for protection against falls -- Descending devices"

    ISO 22159:2007 specifies requirements, test methods, marking and information to be supplied by the manufacturer for descending devices. It also specifies some basic requirements for the descent lines to be used with the descending devices. ISO 22159:2007 is applicable to automatic and manually operated descending devices intended for use in the workplace in access, egress, work positioning and rescue systems. Various types and classes of descending devices are defined according to function and performance. These descending devices can be used in situations other than the workplace if adequate training and/or supervision are provided. ISO 22159:2007 is not intended to apply to descending devices used in leisure activities such as recreational climbing and caving, although its requirements can be useful in specifying such equipment.

    "Protective clothing -- Protection against liquid chemicals -- Measurement of repellency, retention, and penetration of liquid pesticide formulations through protective clothing materials"
    Title

    "Protective clothing -- Protection against liquid chemicals -- Measurement of repellency, retention, and penetration of liquid pesticide formulations through protective clothing materials"

    This document specifies a test method to measure the repellency, retention and penetration of a known volume of liquid pesticide when applied to a protective clothing material. No external hydrostatic or mechanical pressure is applied to the test specimen during or after the application of the liquid pesticide.

    The degree of contamination depends on numerous factors such as the type of exposure, application technique, and pesticide formulation. As the level of exposure can vary considerably, this method is designed to rate the relative performance of personal protective equipment (PPE) materials at two levels of contamination. Low level of contamination is achieved by applying 0,1 ml of liquid formulation and high level by applying 0,2 ml.

    This test method does not measure the resistance to permeation or degradation.

    This test method is suitable for field strength and concentrated pesticide formulations. This method may not be suitable for testing protective clothing materials against volatile pesticide formulations.

    This document is applicable to the evaluation of materials that are new or those that have undergone treatment such as laundering or simulated abrasion. Details of the treatment shall be reported. This test method can also be used to determine the resistance provided by protective clothing materials against penetration of new pesticide formulations.

    "Clothing for protection against infectious agents - Medical face masks - Test method for resistance against penetration by synthetic blood (fixed volume, horizontally projected)"
    Title

    "Clothing for protection against infectious agents - Medical face masks - Test method for resistance against penetration by synthetic blood (fixed volume, horizontally projected)"

    ISO 22609:2004 describes a laboratory test method for measuring the resistance of medical face masks to penetration by a splash of synthetic blood. ISO 22609:2004 primarily addresses the performance of materials or certain material constructions used in medical face masks. The test method does not address the performance of the medical face mask's design, construction, interfaces or other factors which may affect the overall protection offered by the medical face mask and its operation (such as filtration efficiency and pressure drop). ISO 22609:2004 does not evaluate the performance of medical face masks as a protection against contamination via airborne exposure pathways or in the prevention of the penetration of aerosolized body fluids deposited on the medical face mask.
