Guidance for selection, use, care and maintenance of protective clothing against heat and flame
This document provides guidance to the employers, users and purchasers with respect to selection, use, care, and maintenance requirements for protective clothing against heat and flame and is compliant with the European legislation.
This document is not exhaustive in addressing all the safety concerns associated with the use of compliant protective equipment for protection against heat and flames and other related risks.
It is essential not to construe this document as addressing all the safety concerns, if any, associated with the use of this document by testing or repair facilities. It is the responsibility of the persons and organizations that use this document and any other standards related technical report to PPE:
- to conduct a risk assessment,
- to select the protective clothing and other PPE,
- as well as to ensure that these provide a holistic protection, only when the compatibility has been assessed including understanding the work place and the work environment to determine the properties of protective clothing against heat and flames to establish safety and health practices
- and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to using this technical report for any designing, manufacturing, and testing.
This guidance is meant for all end users that may be confronted with heat and flame risks although it will focus on the first four in the list below:
- petrochemical and chemical industry;
- welders and foundries;
- utilities (electrical, gas, water);
- fire fighters and emergency response;
- sports (motor sports, boating, etc.);
- security forces (military, police and private).
It is essential that nothing herein restricts any jurisdiction from exceeding the minimum requirements as provided in the relevant standards.
Leitfaden für Auswahl, Gebrauch, Pflege und Instandhaltung von Schutzkleidung gegen Hitze und Flammen
Guide pour la sélection, l'utilisation, l'entretien et la maintenance des vêtements de protection contre la chaleur et la flamme
Le présent document fournit des recommandations aux employeurs, aux utilisateurs et aux acheteurs en ce qui concerne les exigences relatives à la sélection, l’utilisation, l’entretien et la maintenance des vêtements de protection contre la chaleur et la flamme, et il est conforme à la législation européenne.
Le présent document ne traite pas de façon exhaustive tous les problèmes de sécurité associés à l’utilisation d’équipements conformes de protection individuelle contre la chaleur, la flamme et les autres risques connexes.
Il est important de ne pas considérer le présent document comme traitant l’ensemble des questions de sécurité associées à l’utilisation du présent document par des installations d’essai ou de réparation. Il incombe aux personnes et aux organismes qui utilisent ce document et tout autre rapport technique sur les normes relatives aux EPI de :
— réaliser une évaluation des risques ;
— sélectionner les vêtements de protection et autres EPI ;
— s’assurer qu’ils fournissent une protection complète, seulement lorsque la compatibilité a été évaluée, y compris une compréhension du lieu et de l’environnement de travail afin de déterminer les propriétés des vêtements de protection contre la chaleur et la flamme, en vue d’établir des pratiques en matière de santé et de sécurité ;
— et déterminer l’applicabilité des limitations règlementaires avant d’utiliser le présent rapport technique pour toute conception, fabrication et essai.
Le présent guide est destiné à tous les utilisateurs finaux qui peuvent être confrontés à des risques liés à la chaleur et à la flamme, bien qu’il se concentre sur les quatre premiers utilisateurs de la liste ci-dessous :
— industries pétrochimique et chimique ;
— soudeurs et fonderies ;
— services publics (électricité, gaz, eau) ;
— sapeurs-pompiers et services de secours ;
— sports (sports mécaniques, navigation de plaisance, etc.) ;
— forces de sécurité (armée, police et organismes privés).
Il est important qu’aucune partie des présentes n’empêche une autorité d’aller au-delà des exigences minimales indiquées dans les normes correspondantes.
Navodilo za izbor, uporabo, nego in vzdrževanje varovalne obleke pred učinki toplote in ognja
To tehnično poročilo podaja navodilo za delodajalce, uporabnike in kupce v zvezi z zahtevami glede izbora, uporabe, nege ter vzdrževanja varovalne obleke pred učinki toplote in ognja ter je skladno z evropsko zakonodajo.
To tehnično poročilo ni izčrpno pri obravnavanju vseh varnostnih težav, ki se nanašajo na uporabo skladne varovalne opreme za zaščito pred učinki toplote in ognja, ter drugih povezanih nevarnosti.
Tega tehničnega poročila se ne sme razumeti, kot da obravnava vse morebitne varnostne težave, ki se nanašajo na uporabo tega tehničnega poročila v preskusnih centrih in centrih za popravila. Osebe in organizacije, ki uporabljajo ta standard in morebitne druge standarde, ki se nanašajo na tehnično poročilo o osebni varovalni opremi (PPE), morajo:
– opraviti oceno tveganja;
– izbrati varovalno obleko in drugo osebno varovalno opremo;
– zagotoviti, da omogočajo celostno zaščito izključno na podlagi ocenjene skladnosti, vključno z razumevanjem delovnega mesta in delovnega okolja za določitev lastnosti varovalne obleke pred učinki toplote in ognja za vzpostavitev varnostnih in zdravstvenih praks;
– ter določiti uporabnost regulativnih omejitev pred uporabo tega tehničnega poročila za kakršno koli načrtovanje, proizvodnjo in preskušanje.
To navodilo je namenjeno vsem končnim uporabnikom, izpostavljenim morebitnim nevarnostim učinkov toplote in ognja, čeprav se osredotoča na prve štiri s tega seznama:
– petrokemična in kemična industrija;
– varilci in livarji;
– oskrba (elektrika, plin, voda);
– gasilci in osebje za ukrepanje v izrednih razmerah;
– šport (motošport, plovila itd.);
– varnostne sile (vojska, policija in zasebne varnostne sile).
Pomembno je, da nobena vsebina tega dokumenta ne omejuje morebitne pristojnosti zaradi preseganja minimalnih zahtev, ki so podane v ustreznih standardih.

Introduction
For manufacturers and users of personal protective equipment the following European Regulation and
Directive are important:
th
— Regulation (EU) 2016/425 of the European Council of 9 March 2016 on personal protective
equipment (replacing the Directive 89/686 EEC);
— Directive 89/656/EEC on use of personal protective equipment.
Regulation (EU) 2016/425 indicates that in order to place PPE on the market it shall meet essential
health and safety requirements, and not necessarily the various relevant EN or EN ISO standards.
Nevertheless nearly all PPE meet the essential requirements through standards, as harmonised
standards give presumption of conformity with the requirements of the directive. This is the reason we
will spend sometimes explaining certain standard and what information they provide on the heat and
flame protective clothing. Requirements and test methods should be, as far as possible, representative
of the risks against those that it is necessary to protect the user under the foreseeable conditions of use.
The reader will want to be aware that where PPE is intended for use in a place of work, national and
