When worn with protective clothing, breathing apparatus and helmet, the design features and performance requirements of the firehood are intended to provide p

28、rotection to the exposed areas of the head and neck against heat and flame. Firehoods can be used in different end uses, both over and underneath the facemask and with different shapes of helmets. It is the users responsibility to choose the right firehood appropriate to the garment, helmet, and fac

29、emask recommended by the hood manufacturer. BS EN 13911:2017EN 13911:2017 (E) 5 1 Scope This standard specifies minimum safety requirements and test methods for a firehood to be worn during firefighting operations to protect against heat and fire. This standard only applies in situations when protec

30、tive clothing (EN 469), breathing apparatus (EN 136 and EN 137), and helmet (EN 443) are also worn. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

44、sed in the construction of the firehood which are likely to come into contact with the skin of the wearer shall comply with 4.2 of EN ISO 13688:2013. The design requirements specified shall be verified by visual inspection during the procedures in Annex B, unless otherwise specified in 4.2. The manu

45、facturer shall provide information on the specific items for those that compatibility is claimed. 4.2 General The firehood shall be close fitting and able to be worn without discomfort or significant restriction to head movement. The firehood shall fit around or under the breathing apparatus facemas

46、k for which compatibility is claimed without reducing the field of view interfering with the breathing function of the mask and give no discomfort to the wearer. Overstretching will reduce the heat protective performance of the firehood and should be avoided by design. NOTE Excess material in the co

47、nstruction of the firehood may hamper the wearer and compromise the wearing of other personal protective equipment. 4.3 Facial opening The firehood shall have a facial opening designed to fit around or under a breathing apparatus facemask for which compatibility is claimed. Assess by visual observat
