PORTWEST
For over 117 years we’ve possessed an unrelenting ambition to produce the world’s most trusted and requested protective wear. Through the decades, we have continuously proven our dedication to quality, producing world beating safety garments, foot protection, hand protection and PPE, while pushing the boundaries in protection technologies. Technologies that make the workplace a safer place.
EN ISO 20471 Hi-Vis Class 3
EN ISO 20471 is divided into three classes, the requirement for the area consisting of reflectors and fluorescent materials – that determines which class you need to choose. Minimum areas of visible material in m². Class 3: Reflective Tape = 0.20m², Fluorescent material = 0.80m². Class 2: Reflective Tape = 0.13m², Fluorescent material = 0.50m². Class 1: Reflective Tape = 0.10m², Fluorescent material = 0.14m². The highest class is class 3. There are two ways to attain class 3. Either choose an EN ISO 20471 product that is rated class 3 on its own (e.g. a jacket) or choose two products that together are class 3 certified.Details
EN ISO 11612 Heat & Flame
Letter A (EN 15025) This test consists of applying a flame to a fabric sample for 10 seconds. To pass the test, the after flame & smoulder times and formation of holes must be within the tolerances within the standard. The application of a flame can take place in two ways: Code Letter A1 Surface Ignition, ISO15025 A Procedure A (leads to Class A1), the flame is applied horizontally to the face of the fabric No specimen shall permit any part of the lowest boundary of any flame to reach the upper or either vertical edges No specimen shall give hole formation of 5mm or greater in any direction, except for an inter-lining that is used for specific protection other than heat and flame protection. No specimen shall give flaming or molten debris The mean value of after flame time shall be ≤ 2s The mean value of afterglow time shall be ≤ 2s Code Letter A1 Edge Ignition, ISO15025 B Procedure B (leads to Class A2), the flame is applied to the bottom edge of the fabric sample. No specimen shall permit any part of the lowest boundary of any flame to reach the upper or either vertical edges No specimen shall give flaming or molten debris The mean value of after flame time shall be ≤ 2s The mean value of afterglow time shall be ≤ 2s Letter B (ISO 9151) Convective Heat: determination of the heat transmission when exposed to flames. The sample is held above the flame and the rise in temperature on the topside of the sample is measured with a calorimeter. The length of time the sample can remain exposed before its temperature rises by 24 °C is determined. B1: 4 < 10 seconds, B2: 10 < 20 seconds, B3: 21 seconds and longer Letter C (ISO 6942) Exposure to Radiant Heat. In this test, a fabric sample is exposed to radiant heat (infrared rays). The temperature on the reverse (unexposed) side of the sample is registered using a calorimeter. Subsequently, the length of time the sample the sample can remain exposed before its temperature rises by 24°C is measured. The test procedure is the same as ISO 11611, but the classification is different: C1: 7 < 20 seconds, C2: 20 < 50 seconds, C3: 50 < 95 seconds, C4: 95 seconds and longer Letter D and E (ISO 9185) D = Aluminium E = Molten Iron Determining the level of protection against spatters of molten metal. A membrane (with similar properties to human skin) is attached to the reverse of the fabric sample sequentially rising quantities of molten metal (Aluminium or Iron as applicable) are splashed on the sample. The quantity of molten metal which deforms the membrane is determined. The classification for molten aluminium is: D1: 100 < 200 grams, D2: 200 <350 grams, D3: 350 grams and more The classification for molten iron is: E1: 60 < 120 grams, E2: 120 < 200 grams, E3: 200 grams and more Letter F (ISO 12127) This is a new test to establish a value for contact heat. The classification in this respect: F1: 5 < 10 seconds, F2: 10 < 15 seconds, F3: 15 seconds and longerDetails
EN ISO 14116 Limited Flame Spread
Protective clothing complying with this standard is intended to protect workers against occasional and brief contact with small igniting flames in circumstances where there is no significant flame hazard and without the presence of another type of heat. Three different categories for flame spread, Index 1, 2 and 3. Index 1: garments should not be worn next to the skin. They must be worn over Index 2 or 3 garments. Index 2 or 3 garments can be worn next to the skin.Details
Treated FR Garments
FR treated fabrics are based on cotton, blended with polyester, para-aramid or polyamide. These fabrics get their FR property from the chemical treatment that is applied to the fabric. This chemical treatment is executed in such a way that it fully penetrates the fiber and as such is bonded throughout the entire fabric. As a result of this treatment, the fabric becomes flame retardant and keeps this property during the lifetime of the garment. PROS: very good protection against molten metal, good protection against heat and ARC, relatively cheap, good value for money in dirty environments where expected lifespan is not very long. CONS: wash fastness is typically not very good (pale look after several washes), to achieve similar FR properties as inherent FR the fabrics typically become a bit heavier and therefore tend to be a bit less comfortable.Details
