Description / Abstract:
This international standard (part 1-10) specifies minimum design
and performance requirements for personal protective equipment
(PPE) to be used by firefighters, primarily but not solely to
protect against exposure to flame and high thermal loads.
To assist with choice based on user risk assessment, Types and
performance levels for different categories of protection are
included.
The scope of these International Standards does not include PPE
for use in high risk fire exposures where for example, protective
clothing with reflective surface according to ISO 15538 might be
more appropriate, or for use in long-term fire fighting operations
in high ambient temperature, for example bush, wildland, or forest
fire fighting where equipment according to ISO 16073 might be more
appropriate.
Similarly these Standards do not include PPE to protect against
chemical and biological hazards, other than against short term and
accidental exposure whilst engaged in firefighting and associated
activities when fighting fires occurring in structures.
Part 1 describes the general structure of the standards, sets
design and performance requirements for PPE and includes
requirements for marking and manufacturer's instructions.
