This European Stan
19、dard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by September 2005, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by September 2005. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by
20、 the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive 89/686/EEC. For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the nation
21、al standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Port

23、rtional to the risk to avoid excessive discomfort due to overprotection. The categorisation into types of chemical protective clothing is an attempt to discriminate between different general levels of risk. The determination of the actual risk level should follow from a risk assessment, which takes
24、all relevant parameters into account, e.g. the nature of the chemical, temperature, pressure, quantity, parts of the body likely to be exposed, climatic conditions, intensity of work etc. This risk assessment will give important indications about suitable types of materials, clothing design and comp
25、osition of the most effective solution, e.g. combination with other types of PPE or other items of chemical protective clothing. Type 6 and PB 6 are intended to be used in cases where risk has been assessed as low and a full liquid permeation barrier is not necessary, i.e. when wearers are able to t
26、ake timely adequate action when their clothing is contaminated. Type 6 and PB 6 protective clothing form the lowest level of chemical protection and are intended to protect from a potential exposure to small quantities of spray or accidental low volume splashes. A technical report to give guidance o
27、n questions pertaining to selection, use, care and maintenance is currently under development. Copyright European Committee for Standardization Provided by IHS under license with CEN Not for Resale No reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS - - -EN 13034:2005 (E) 5 1 Scope This
28、 document specifies the minimum requirements for limited use and re-useable limited performance chemical protective clothing. Limited performance chemical protective clothing is intended for use in cases of a potential exposure to a light spray, liquid aerosols or low pressure, low volume splashes,
29、against which a complete liquid permeation barrier (at the molecular level) is not required. This document covers both chemical protective suits (Type 6) and partial body protection (Type PB 6). Chemical protective suits (Type 6) cover and protect at least the trunk and the limbs, e.g. one-piece cov
30、eralls or two piece suits, with or without hood, boot-socks or boot-covers. This document specifies minimum requirements for the connections between different parts of Type 6 suits by the use of a reduced whole suit spray test using a variant of EN 468, as described in 5.2. Partial body protection o
31、f similar limited performance (Type PB 6) covers and protects only specific parts of the body, e.g. coats, aprons, sleeves etc. They should not be tested to the whole suit test (5.2). 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
