20、 specifies a test method for the penetration resistance of gloves that protect against dangerous chemicals and/or micro-organisms. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated ref
21、erences, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 374-1, Protective gloves against chemicals and micro-organisms - Part 1: Terminology and performance requirements ISO 2859 (all parts), Sampling proce
22、dures and tables for inspection by attributes 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document the terms and definitions given in EN 374-1 apply. 4 Principle of tests 4.1 Air leak test A glove is immersed in water, and its interior is pressurised with air. A leak is detected by a stream of
23、air bubbles from the surface of the glove. 4.2 Water leak test A glove is filled with water. A leak is detected by the appearance of water droplets on the outside of the glove. 4.3 Remarks The air leak procedure is not suitable for all gloves. For example parts of some gloves may be overinflated whi
24、le other parts of the same gloves can only be partially inflated. If the air leak test proves unsuitable, then only the water penetration test is carried out. For both methods disregard leaks within the area of 40 mm from the edge of the liquid proof area. 5 Sampling For the purpose of testing, the
25、test sample will be one glove of each size, with an overall minimum of 4 samples per performed test. For certain reasons some gloves cannot be tested, e.g. non-homogenous overinflating of the samples or thickness of the liners disables the fitting on the mandrel. If one sample fails the penetration
26、test, the test shall be reported as having failed. For the purpose of production control, e. g. by the manufacturer or auditing organisation, see Annex A. BS EN 374-2:2014EN 374-2:2014 (E) 5 6 Apparatus 6.1 Air leak test 6.1.1 A circular fixing mandrel, tapered with an appropriate diameter range to
27、effect an airtight seal with the glove to be tested. It should be capable of rotation through 180. 6.1.2 Means of air inflation. 6.1.3 Water tank. 6.1.4 Pressure gauge reading 0 kPa to 10 kPa. 6.1.5 Means of regulating the desired pressure.

The tube measures 380 mm in length and has a diameter wide enough
30、 to fit the gloves under test. It has a mark 40 mm from the lower end (see Figure 3).

31、 hanging the hook end of the tube (see Figure 4). The supported rod shall be capable of taking the weight of the total number of gloves that will be suspended at any one time. 6.2.4 A device capable of delivering a minimum of 1 000 ml water. 6.2.5 An alternative means of holding the glove may be use
32、d. The apparatus shall be capable of securing the glove on a mandrel, with a diameter appropriate to fit the glove, so that it can be filled with water to within 40 mm from the edge of the liquid proof area. It shall be capable of holding water in excess of that required to fill the glove. BS EN 374

Record the identity code, lot number, size and brand of samples. Visually examine for tears, rips and holes. If these are present, the glov
34、es shall be reported as having failed. 7.2 Air leak test 7.2.1 The glove is fastened to the circular mandrel and is inflated after immersion at ambient temperature, with air, to a gauge pressure of X kPa (see Table 1) plus an overpressure of 1 kPa per 100 mm of immersion measured at the fingertips c
35、losest to the bottom of the water tank. For example, for 250 mm of immersion at the fingertips, 2,5 kPa shall be added to the air pressure specified in Table 1. The inflation pressure shall be reached with a 10 % limit deviation within 2 min and the control of possible air bubbles shall take an addi
36、tional (30 5) s. Table 1 Air pressure Nominal glove thickness (e) mm As provided by the manufacturer Air pressure (X) kPa e 1,0 6,0 BS EN 374-2:2014EN 374-2:2014 (E) 9 7.2.2 For gloves up to 250 mm in length the immersion shall be carried out with the hand vertically downwards so that the water cove
37、rs the maximum possible surface of the glove. For gloves over 250 mm in length the immersion is to be carried out, with the hand at a downward angle, to a vertical depth of (250 10) mm above the tip of the middle finger and so that the water covers the maximum possible surface of the glove. Rotate t
38、he mandrel and examine the whole glove surface for the emergence of air bubbles (see Figure 2). 7.3 Water leak test 7.3.1 The glove is attached to an open-ended plastic tube by bringing the edge of the cuff to the 40 mm mark (see Figure 3) and fastening it with the elastic strap to make a watertight
39、 seal. 7.3.2 A minimum of 1 000 ml of water is added through the tube to fill the glove completely and to reach at least the 40 mm mark level of the liquid proof area of the glove. The water shall be at ambient temperature. Some of the 1 000 ml of water may remain in the fill tube depending on the g
40、love being tested. If it is required, the glove can be supported by some suitable means in order to avoid excessive distortion from the weight of water. 7.3.3 The gloves are examined immediately for water leaks. The glove should not be squeezed. Only minimal handling is required to detect leaks. Wat
41、er droplets may be blotted to confirm leakage, or talcum powder may be used to enhance droplet visibility. 7.3.4 If the glove does not leak immediately, the tube with the glove attached is suspended vertically (see Figure 4) and re-examined 2 min ( 10s) after the initial addition of water. Again, us
42、ing minimum handling, the glove surface is checked for leaks. 8 Test report The test report shall include: A reference to this International Standard; Full identity of the tested glove; Visual inspection: pass or fail; Air leak test and water leak test: pass or fail; For the air leak test: air press
