    "Protective gloves for firefighters - Laboratory test methods and performance requirements"
    Title

    "Protective gloves for firefighters - Laboratory test methods and performance requirements"

    This International Standard specifies test methods and minimum requirements for protective gloves to be worn during fire fighting and associated activities where there is a risk of heat and/or flame. The purpose of this International Standard is to provide minimum performance requirements for protective gloves designed to protect against injury in fire fighting operations. This International Standard covers the general glove design, the minimum performance levels of the materials used and the methods of test for determining these performance levels. With the exception of flame resistance and ergonomic requirements, this International Standard establishes three levels of performance for all other performance requirements. Type 3 gloves provide a higher level of thermal insulation and physical protection, and require liquid penetration resistance (including synthetic blood) as compared to Type 2 gloves. Type 1 gloves are intended to provide minimum requirements for gloves in any fire fighting application, such as for wildland fire fighting. Annex E provides a comparison of the performance requirements for all three glove types. This International Standard does not cover special gloves for use in other high risk situations such as specialized fire fighting. It does not cover protection for the head, torso, arms, legs and feet or protection of the hands against other hazards, e.g. chemical, biological, radiation and electrical hazards, except for limited, accidental exposure to fireground chemicals and contaminated blood or body fluids (Type 3 gloves). These aspects may be dealt with in other standards. Selection of the appropriate system of clothing, including gloves, is dependant on carrying out an effective risk assessment which identifies the hazards to be faced, evaluates the likelihood of those hazards and provides the means of reducing or eliminating these hazards. Guidelines for conducting a risk assessment and some factors for consideration are included in annex D.

    "Protective clothing for firefighters -- Laboratory test methods and performance requirements for wildland firefighting clothing"

    This document specifies methods of test and minimum performance requirements for personal protective clothing, designed to protect the wearer’s body, except for the head, hands, and feet, that is worn during wildland firefighting and associated activities. This clothing is not intended to provide protection during fire entrapment. This document covers the general design of the garment, the minimum level of performance for the materials employed and the methods of test to determine these levels.

    This document is not applicable to clothing for use in situations encountered in structural firefighting (EN 469 or ISO 11999-3), rescue (ISO 18639) or where a high level of infrared radiation is expected (ISO 15538 or EN 1486), nor does this document cover clothing to protect against chemical, biological, electrical or radiation hazards. This document does not provide protection against high mechanical risks such as for protection when using chain saws.

    "Protective clothing for firefighters — Laboratory test methods and performance requirements for protective clothing with a reflective outer surface"

    This International Standard specifies test methods and minimum performance requirements for protective clothing that relies upon the ability of the outer material to reflect intense radiant heat. The clothing covered by this International Standard is intended to provide protection against flame lick and intense radiant heat and it should be worn for short periods only. Subject to a risk assessment, this type of clothing may also be used for certain industrial and other applications. Subject to a risk assessment, other types of protective clothing, for example clothing complying with the requirements of ISO 11613, may be used for the types of firefighting and industrial applications envisaged by this International Standard in conjunction with appropriate protection for the head, face, hands and feet as well as suitable respiratory protection. This International Standard does not consider requirements for the protection of the head (including the face), hands and feet other than those specified in 4.2 and 4.3. Any other requirements specific to the protection of head (including the face), hands and feet required by the user should be determined by a risk assessment and specified.
