Protective clothing for use in welding and allied processes (ISO 11611:2007)

ISO 11611:2007 specifies minimum basic safety requirements and test methods for protective clothing including hoods, aprons, sleeves and gaiters that are designed to protect the wearer's body including head (hoods) and feet (gaiters) and that are to be worn during welding and allied processes with comparable risks. For the protection of the wearer's head and feet, ISO 11611:2007 is only applicable to hoods and gaiters. ISO 11611:2007 does not cover requirements for hand protection.
This type of protective clothing is intended to protect the wearer against spatter (small splashes of molten metal), short contact time with flame, radiant heat from the arc, and minimizes the possibility of electrical shock by short-term, accidental contact with live electrical conductors at voltages up to approximately 100 V d.c. in normal conditions of welding. Sweat, soiling or other contaminants can affect the level of protection provided against short-term accidental contact with live electric conductors at these voltages.
ISO 11611:2007 specifies two classes with specific performance requirements, i.e. Class 1 being the lower level and Class 2 the higher level.
Class 1 is protection against less hazardous welding techniques and situations, causing lower levels of spatter and radiant heat.
Class 2 is protection against more hazardous welding techniques and situations, causing higher levels of spatter and radiant heat.
For adequate overall protection against the risks to which welders are likely to be exposed, personal protective equipment (PPE) covered by other standards should additionally be worn to protect the head, face, hands and feet.

Schutzkleidung für Schweißen und verwandte Verfahren (ISO 11611:2007)

Diese Internationale Norm legt die grundlegenden Mindestanforderungen an die Sicherheit und die Prüfverfahren für Schutzkleidung fest einschließlich Hauben, Schürzen, Überziehärmel und Gamaschen, die dafür vorgesehen ist, den Träger einschließlich Kopf (Haube) und Füße (Gamaschen) beim Schweißen und verwandten Prozessen mit vergleichbaren Risiken zu schützen. Der Anwendungsbereich dieser Inter¬nationalen Norm umfasst zum Schutz des Kopfes und der Füße des Schweißers nur Gamaschen und Hauben. Diese Internationale Norm legt keine Anforderungen an Handschutz fest.
Diese Art Schutzkleidung ist dazu vorgesehen, den Träger gegen Schweißspritzer (kleine Spritzer geschmol¬zenen Metalls), kurzzeitigen Kontakt mit Flammen sowie Strahlungswärme aus dem Lichtbogen zu schützen und sie bietet unter üblichen Schweißbedingungen in begrenztem Maße elektrische Isolation gegenüber unter Gleichspannung bis ungefähr 100 V stehenden elektrischen Leitern. Schweiß, Verschmutzung oder andere Verunreinigungen können den Schutz gegen kurzzeitiges unbeabsichtigtes Berühren von spannungs¬führenden elektrischen Leitern bis zu dieser Spannung beeinträchtigen.
Diese Internationale Norm legt zwei Klassen mit spezifischen Leistungsanforderungen fest (siehe Anhang A), wobei Klasse 1 die niedrigere Klasse und Klasse 2 die höhere Klasse ist.
   Klasse 1 (niedrigere Klasse) bietet Schutz gegen weniger gefährdende Schweißverfahren und Arbeits¬platz¬situationen mit weniger Schweißspritzern und niedrigerer Strahlungswärme.
   Klasse 2 (höhere Klasse) bietet Schutz gegen stärker gefährdende Schweißverfahren und Arbeits¬platzsituationen mit mehr Schweißspritzern und stärkerer Strahlungswärme.
Einzelheiten sind in Tabelle 1 und Anhang B angegeben.
Für angemessenen Schutz gegen Risiken, denen Schweißer üblicherweise ausgesetzt sind, sollte Persönliche Schutzausrüstung (PSA) für Kopf, Gesicht, Hände und Füße entsprechend anderen Normen getragen werden.

Vêtements de protection utilisés pendant le soudage et les techniques connexes (ISO 11611:2007)

L'ISO 11611:2007 spécifie les exigences essentielles de sécurité minimales et les méthodes d'essai des vêtements de protection, comprenant les cagoules, les tabliers, les manches et les guêtres, destinés à protéger le corps y compris la tête (cagoules) et les pieds (guêtres) et qui doivent être portés durant des opérations de soudage et autres procédés techniques ayant des risques comparables. Pour la protection de la tête et des pieds, l'ISO 11611:2007 s'applique seulement pour les cagoules et les guêtres. L'ISO 11611:2007 ne couvre pas les exigences pour la protection de la main.
Ce type de vêtement de protection est destiné à protéger celui qui le porte contre les projections (petites projections de métal en fusion), contre le contact de courte durée avec une flamme, contre la chaleur radiante provenant de l'arc et à fournir un certain degré d'isolation électrique en cas de contact accidentel avec un conducteur électrique à un voltage supérieur à approximativement 100 V en courant continu dans des conditions normales de soudage. La sueur, des salissures ou d'autres polluants peuvent affecter le niveau de protection apporté contre un contact accidentel avec un conducteur électrique à ces voltages.
L'ISO 11611:2007 spécifie deux classes avec des exigences de performance, la Classe 1 étant la plus faible et la Classe 2 la plus élevée.
La Classe 1 est la protection contre des techniques de soudage et les situations provoquant le moins de projections et une chaleur radiante faible.
La Classe 2 est la protection contre les techniques de soudage et les situations provoquant plus de projections et une chaleur radiante plus élevée.
Pour une protection complète adéquate contre les risques rencontrés par les soudeurs, il convient que des EPI couverts par d'autres normes soient portés en complément afin de protéger la tête, le visage, les mains et les pieds.
