13、reword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a tec

14、hnical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters o

15、f electrotechnical standardization. The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This documen

16、t was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives). Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such

17、 patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents). Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does

18、 not constitute an endorsement.

19、tion. ISO/TS 16973 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 94, Personal safety Protective clothing and equipment, Subcommittee SC 15, Respiratory protective devices.iv ISO 2016 All rights reservedPD ISO/TS 16973:2016ISO/TS 16973:2016(E) Introduction This Technical Specification contains the class

20、ification of Respiratory Protective Devices (RPD) and the related marking in accordance with the requirements of the performance standards. The basic classification, which applies to all RPD, will be marked in the following order: a) protection class; b) work rate class; c) respiratory interface cla

21、ss. Some examples for marking of commonly known RPD are included in Annex B. For Supplied Breathable Gas RPD, the classification also includes gas capacity class. For Filtering RPD, the classification also includes a particle filter class and/or the gas filter types and classes. RPD designated to be

22、 used for Special Applications are further classified accordingly. The special applications identified are Firefighting, Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN), Marine, Mining, Abrasive blasting, Welding, and Escape. Each RPD will have an individual classification based on its perform

23、ance specified in the relevant performance standards. Explanations of the classification and examples of the classification of RPD are given in the Annexes. The following definitions apply in understanding how to implement an ISO International Standard and other normative ISO deliverables (TS, PAS,

24、IWA): “shall” indicates a requirement; “should” indicates a recommendation; “may” is used to indicate that something is permitted; “can” is used to indicate that something is possible, for example, that an organization or individual is able to do something. 3.3.1 of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (s

25、ixth edition, 2011) defines a requirement as an “expression in the content of a document conveying criteria to be fulfilled if compliance with the document is to be claimed and from which no deviation is permitted.” 3.3.2 of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (sixth edition, 2011) defines a recommendati

26、on as an “expression in the content of a document conveying that among several possibilities one is recommended as particularly suitable, without mentioning or excluding others, or that a certain course of action is ISO 2016 All rights reserved vPD ISO/TS 16973:2016ISO/TS 16973:2016(E) preferred but

27、 not necessarily required, or that (in the negative form) a certain possibility or course of action is deprecated but not prohibited.”vi ISO 2016 All rights reservedPD ISO/TS 16973:2016TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION ISO/TS 16973:2016(E) Respiratory protective devices Classification for respiratory protecti

33、 supply breathable gas to the wearer. These modes are specified in Table 1. Table 1 Mode of operation Mode of operation Means of providing breathable gas to the wearer Typical examples of RPD Breathable gas supply The RPD supplies the wearer with breathable gas from a remote supply of breathable gas

34、 or from breathable gas stored in, or regenerated by, the RPD. Compressed airline breath- ing apparatus, self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) Filtration The RPD removes gases, vapours and/or particles from the ambient air depending on the air-purifying element (filter) used. These can be assist

35、ed or unas- sisted devices. Half mask with gas filter(s) Filtering facepiece ISO 2016 All rights reserved 1PD ISO/TS 16973:2016ISO/TS 16973:2016(E) Combined RPD are devices which have both filtration and breathable gas supply modes. Combined RPD can have different classes depending on the operating

36、method being used. An example will be an RPD which can operate as a compressed airline breathing apparatus and has an auxiliary filter. Multi-functional RPD are RPD which have different methods of operation within either filtration or breathable gas supply modes. Multi-functional RPD can have differ

37、ent classes depending on the operating method being used. An example would be an RPD which can operate as a compressed airline breathing apparatus with an auxiliary self-contained breathing apparatus. Another example is an assisted filtering RPD which can operate as an unassisted filtering RPD when

38、not powered. The performance requirements for breathable gas supply RPD and filtering RPD are specified in the relevant performance standards. 5 Protection classes (PC) RPD shall be classified by Protection Class. The Protection classes are derived from the results of a laboratory Total Inward Leaka

39、ge (TIL) test in accordance with ISO 16900-1 and the relevant performance standards. These classes are provided in Table 2. Table 2 Protection classes Protection Class TIL MAX % PC1 20 PC2 5 PC3 1 PC4 0,1 PC5 0,01 PC6 0,001 NOTE TIL is the ratio of the concentration of a test agent in the breathing

40、zone inside the RPD compared with the concentration outside the RPD, expressed as a percentage. This is the level of total inward leakage of the RPD as measured in the laboratory under standard defined conditions. TIL levels used in RPD evaluation are given in Table 2 and Figure A.1. 6 Work rate RPD

41、 shall be classified by Work rate class, as determined by the RPD manufacturer. The Work rate classes are derived from the results of a laboratory test, Work of breathing, and the related performance requirement, in accordance with ISO 16900-12 and the relevant performance standards. These classes a

42、re W4, which is equivalent to ISO/TS 16976-1 work class 8 (maximal), W3, which encompasses ISO/TS 16976-1 work classes 7 and 6 (extremely heav y and very-very heav y), W2 which encompasses ISO/TS 16976-1 work classes 5 and 4 (very heavy and heavy), and W1, which encompasses ISO/TS 16976-1 work class

43、es 3, 2 and 1 (moderate and light). For further information, see Annex D. RPD designated for special applications may have performance requirements with minimum work rate classes.2 ISO 2016 All rights reservedPD ISO/TS 16973:2016ISO/TS 16973:2016(E) 7 Respiratory interface class Respiratory interfac

44、es shall be classified by coverage area see Figure E.1, a) to e). Respiratory interfaces shall be further classified by type: tight fitting; those that form a seal with the wearers skin, and loose fitting, those that have a partial seal or no seal with the skin of the wearer. See Table 3, Figure A.1

Supplied breathable gas RPD that have an external supply of breathable g

48、as shall be classified and marked “SY”. Gas Capacity classification of these devices is shown in Table 4 and Figure A.2.
