1、U.S. Departmentof TransportationFederal AviationAdministrationAdvisoryCircularSubject: AIRPORT FIRE AND RESCUE PERSONNELPROTECTIVE CLOTHINGDate: 7/13/95Initiated by: AAS-100AC No: 150/5210-14AChange:1. PURPOSE. This advisory circular (AC)identifies minimum standards for design, performance,testing,

2、and safety of personnel protective equipment(PPE), frequently referred to as personnel protectiveclothing, for airport firefighting. This AC also assistsairport management in the development of localprocurement specifications for acceptable, cost-effective PPE. Suggestions are also provided forenhan

3、cing the design, performance, and safety of PPEutilized in aircraft rescue and firefighting (ARFF)applications.2. CANCELLATION. AC 150/5210-14, AirportFire and Rescue Personnel Protective Clothing, datedMarch 12, 1986, is canceled.3. APPLICATION. The standards referencedherein are recommended by the

4、 Federal AviationAdministration for applications on all airports. Theyare mandatory for PPE purchased under federallyfunded projects and are an acceptable means forcompliance with 14 CFR Part 139, Certification andOperations: Land Airports Serving Certain AirCarriers, as it pertains to the PPE requi

5、rements forairport rescue and firefighting personnel.4. GENERAL. Components making up the usersPPE include coat, trouser or coverall, flash hood,helmet, gloves, and boots. The PPE ensemble shall becompatible when assembled together. Proximity suitshave an aluminized outer shell and insulated innerla

6、yers. The proximity suit ensemble should withstandoccasional short-duration flame contact but is notdesigned for fire entry. Proximity suits must belightweight and provide the mobility, durability, andthermal protection performance capabilities necessaryto allow aircraft rescue and firefighting pers

7、onnel toperform efficiently under extreme environmentalconditions of intense radiant heat, as well as high andlow ambient temperatures.While at least one proximity ensemble per responsevehicle is customary, the selection, purchase and use ofproximity or nonreflective protective clothing is adecision

8、 made by airport management based onoperational considerations and risk assessment.Advanced primary firefighting agents, such asAqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF), in combinationwith powerful agent pumps and long-range turrets nowenable airport firefighters to control and essentiallyextinguish large a

9、viation fuel fires while still in theattacking vehicle. This means that aviation fuel firescan be controlled in minutes before leaving the vehicleand advancing handlines. Therefore, firefighters oftendo not need to leave the ARFF vehicle before the levelsof radiant heat are low enough to allow the u

10、se ofnonreflective gear. If nonreflective protective clothingis selected, fire protection personnel need to be madeaware of the limitations of their protective clothing.As with any protective clothing, training and educationneed to be conducted to educate firefighters concerningproper use, care, and

11、 PPE limitations.5. BACKGROUND. The Emmitsburg III FederalFire Conference 94 was held in March, 1994. As aresult of that conference, the Federal Fire Servicefound that Federal Fire and Emergency Service policiesshould be based on national consensus standards to thegreatest extent possible. Duplicate

12、 agency standardsand agency unique policies must be eliminated unlessthey are absolutely necessary. National consensusstandards have been carefully reviewed with theresulting recommendations and modifications.Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from I

25、 Department OccupationalSafety and Health Program, 1992 edition, Chapter 5,Section 5-2.5.7. RELATED CONSIDERATIONS.a. Outer Shell Fabrics. Outer shell fabricsshould be durable, supple, lightweight, and remainflexible under extreme temperatures. These fabricsshould provide users, with minimal effort,

26、 an uninhibitedrange of motion.b. Thermal Liner. The thermal liner should bedurable, supple, remain flexible under extremetemperatures, and provide users, with minimal effort, anuninhibited range of motion. The thermal liner shouldprovide a balance of protection between adequate thermalprotective pe

27、rformance (TPP) and the effects of heatstress. Thermal liner facecloths that greatly reduce thefriction encountered between the liner and the usersProvided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-7/13/95 AC 150/5210-14A3 (and 4)personal clothing offer

28、 an enhanced range of motion andhelp address the heat stress concerns.c. Moisture Barrier. The moisture barrierfabric should provide the user with protection from bloodand body fluid contamination and should meet NFPA1999 Protective Clothing for Emergency MedicalOperations. The moisture barrier shou

29、ld be durable,supple, lightweight, remain flexible under extremetemperatures, and provide the user, with minimal effort,an uninhibited range of motion.d. Stitching, Seams, and Edges. All stitchingshould be continuous and no joined stitching in mid-seam should be permitted. All exposed edges of theth

30、ermal liner and moisture barrier should bemanufactured to provide finished edges to preventfraying and for maximum working life of the composite.The average number of stitches per inch should beconsistent throughout the garment. Noticeable changesin the number of stitches per inch will have an affec

31、t onthe quality of the finished product and could reduce theworking life of the garment.e. Reinforcement. All outer shell stress pointsshould be reinforced for maximum working life. Thisincludes areas such as top and bottom of the storm panel,pocket corners, and pocket flap corners. The use of rivet

32、sshould be avoided to prevent structural damage to thefabric created when the rivet elongates the hole.f. Sizing. Garment sizing has a direct affect ofthe safety and health of the user. Wearing garments thatare not properly fit affects safety by compromisingmobility, exposing limbs, and accelerating

33、 the effects ofheat stress. Improper fit can damage the garmentcausing partial or a total failure of the clothing system.Wearing garments that are too large or long requiresadditional energy to work with the excess weight,stiffness, and bulk. Wearing a garment that is too smallor short will require

34、additional energy to overcomeproblems associated with a garment that is restrictive andtoo tight. Garments should be properly sized, and thegarment manufacturer consulted with regard to fit.g. Service Life. Performance requirement ofNFPA 1976 and manufacturing technology have greatlyimproved the adh

35、esion of the aluminized laminate to theouter shell. This has provided the fire service with aproduct that exhibits very little delamination. What ismistaken for delamination of the aluminized coating mayactually be abrasion. These types of garments do nottolerate the abrasion normally associated wit

36、h rescue,extrication, or training scenarios. When exposed toprolonged or high levels of abrasion, especially duringextrication and rescue type training, the aluminizedlaminate will be destroyed in a short period of time.Adding additional reflective fabric to areas such as knees,elbows, and cuffs wil

37、l extend the working life of thegarment, especially if this fabric is replaceable. Airportfire departments often supplement their reflectivegarments with structural type protective clothing fortraining or when performing structural firefightingoperations.h. Use, Care, Inspection, and Maintenance.App

38、endix A of NFPA 1976 provides general assistanceand NFPA 1581, Standard on Fire Department InfectionControl Program, paragraph 3-3.2 should be considered.Agencies should request specific guidance from thegarment manufacturer and develop a program forcleaning, maintenance, inspection, repair, retirem
