2. SAFETY
In the event of accidental splashes of Chemical or Flammable liquids on clothing, the wearer should withdraw and carefully remove the
9
garments, ensuring the chemical or liquid does not come into contact with any part of the skin. Clothing should be cleaned or removed
from service.
The level of protection against flame will be reduced if the welders' protective clothing is contaminated with flammable materials.
9
An increase in the oxygen content of the air will considerably reduce the protection. Care should be taken when welding in confined
spaces, e.g. if it is possible that the atmosphere may become enriched with oxygen.
The electrical insulation provided by clothing will be reduced when the clothing is wet, dirty or soaked with sweat.
9
For two-piece protective clothing, both items must be worn together to provide the specified level of protection.
9
This garment is intended for use in addition to protective clothing providing protection against welding hazards.
9
This clothing is intended to protect against flames, molten metal splatter, radiant heat and short-term, accidental electrical contact.
9
A1 classification provides resistance to flaming ignition from flames against the face of the leather.
9
For operational reasons not all welding voltages carrying parts of arc welding installations can be protected against direct contact.
9
This garment is only intended to protect against brief inadvertent contact with live parts of an arc welding circuit. Additional electrical
9
insulation layers will be required where there is an increased risk of electric shock.
Garments are designed to provide protection against short term accidental contact with live electric conductors at voltages up to
9
approximately 100V DC.
Garments should be fastened and worn correctly for protection.
9
When using these additional protective garments, they must be worn over a suit meeting at least Class 1 of EN 11611:2015. When
9
wearing these items, if you experience sunburn-like symptoms, UVB is penetrating. In this case, the garment should be repaired (if
practical) or replaced and consideration given to the use of additional, more resistant, protective layers in the future.
