16、f the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.This document supersedes CEN/TR 15419:2006.5PD CEN/TR 15419:2017CEN/TR 15419:2017 (E)IntroductionAlthough the general SUCAM document developed within C

17、EN/TC 162 provides a lot of useful information, it was felt that a specific SUCAM document for chemical protective clothing (CPC) was necessary, in view of the very specific problems linked with the use of CPC (very large variety of risks, disinfection, etc.).Workplace hazards should be reduced to t

18、he lowest level reasonably achievable. This can be done by eliminating the risk, by taking engineering measures such as encapsulation of the risk, by system control and/or by providing safe work place practices, which can include the use of CPC.This means that the role of CPC in controlling the resi

19、dual risk should be established in the correct context. The performance requirements for CPC should be characterized in terms of the nature, quantity and physical form of the hazardous chemical and the likelihood of contamination.PPE should be evaluated as a whole, not only by its performance relate

20、d to protection. Other factors such as usability and maintenance should also be taken into account to match the equipment and the intended use. Selection and use are more people-related, whereas care and maintenance are more product-related.The risk related to the use of chemicals varies widely with

21、 the nature of the hazard and the conditions and duration of exposure to the chemicals. Therefore, risk and exposure assessment should be done very carefully in order to avoid overprotection and to ensure full acceptance of the protective clothing, which is often used in extremely dangerous work env

It is also intended to be used by manufacturers in their dialogue with the us

23、ers of PPE.This Technical Report is intended to clarify the inter-relationship of the set of standards, developed by CEN/TC 162 WG 3, and to explain the main ideas behind these standards. This set of standards has been developed in support of the European legislation on PPE and is currently used as

24、a major technical tool for the assessment and certification of CPC before it is put on the European market.These guidelines are intended to assist users and specifiers in selecting the correct type of CPC for the task to be performed, and to help them ensure it is used according to the manufacturers

25、 instructions to provide adequate protection during its entire lifetime. Lifetime and effectiveness of protective clothing depend largely on care and maintenance. When cleaning, disinfection and end-of-life disposal are considered the environmental impact should also be taken into account.This Techn

26、ical Report does not address chemical nuisance factors without potential impact on a persons health and safety, e.g. smell.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

If the chemical risk cannot be adequately reduced by these preventive measures, CPC and related PPE should be specified to

47、 nature of the hazard; Assessment of risk; Assessment of need of protection; Additional considerations; Definition of CPC material criteria; Selection of CPC; Conditions of use; Workplace legislation, including REACH.4.2 Assessment of the nature of the hazardTo assess the nature of the hazard, “safe

The eSDS, summarising the REACH use exposure scenarios, should provide safe use conditions including potential use of PPE in the description of operational conditions and risk manageme

The following considerations should be taken into account in assessing the hazardous nature of the chemical:a) The access route of the chemical to the body: an assessment of the adverse health effects from chemical contact is the most important factor in the determination of the right CPC, with an emphasis on the local effects on the skin (e.g., effects of skin contact such as chemical burns, corrosion, staining, irritation, e
