Protective clothing for protection against chemicals - Classification, labelling and performance requirements - Part 2: Physical test methods, classification and requirements (ISO/DIS 16602-2:2025)

This document specifies the performance classification and test methods for materials used in chemical protective clothing, including gloves and footwear. The gloves and boots should have the same minimum chemical protective barrier performance requirements as the fabric when an integral part of the clothing. This is a reference standard to which chemical protective clothing performance standards may refer in whole or in part, but this standard is not exhaustive in the sense that other parts of ISO 16602 may well require testing according to test method standards which are not included in this standard.
While these performance levels are intended to relate to the usage to which the chemical protective clothing is to be put, it is essential that the chemical protective clothing manufacturer or supplier indicates the intended use of the protective clothing. It is similarly important that the user (specifier) carries out a risk assessment in order to establish the correct protective performance levels for the intended task.

Schutzkleidung gegen Chemikalien - Klassifizierung, Kennzeichnung und Leistungsfähigkeit - Teil 2: Physikalische Testmethoden, Klassifizierung und Anforderungen (ISO/DIS 16602-2:2025)

Dieses Dokument legt die Klassifizierung der physikalischen Leistung und Prüfverfahren für Materialien fest, die in Chemikalienschutzkleidung, einschließlich Handschuhen und Schuhwerk, verwendet werden. Die Handschuhe und das Schuhwerk sollten dieselben Mindestanforderungen an die Leistung der Chemikalienschutzbarriere erfüllen wie der Bekleidungsstoff, wenn sie fester Bestandteil der Kleidung sind. Das vorliegende Dokument ist eine Bezugsnorm, auf die sich Normen, welche die Leistungsfähigkeit von Chemikalienschutzkleidung behandeln, vollständig oder in Teilen beziehen können. Jedoch ist diese Norm nicht erschöpfend in dem Sinne, dass andere Teile von ISO 16602 durchaus eine Prüfung in Übereinstimmung mit Prüfverfahrensnormen erfordern können, welche in dieser Norm nicht enthalten sind.
Obwohl es das Ziel dieser Leistungsstufen ist, eine Beziehung zu der Verwendung herzustellen, bei der die Chemikalienschutzkleidung zu tragen ist, ist es wichtig, dass der Hersteller oder Lieferant der Chemikalienschutzkleidung die vorgesehene Verwendung der Schutzkleidung angibt. Zudem ist es ebenfalls wichtig, dass der Anwender (Ersteller von Spezifikationen) eine Risikobewertung durchführt, um die richtigen Schutzleistungsstufen für die vorgesehene Aufgabe festzulegen.
