This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by December 2007, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 2007. This document has been pre
20、pared under a mandate given to CEN by 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/CEN

23、e purpose of this European Standard is to provide minimum performance requirements for protective clothing designed for use for extended periods during wildland firefighting and associated activities. Wildland firefighting involves work primarily in summer temperatures, for many hours during which t
24、he firefighter may develop high levels of metabolic heat. Consequently the protective clothing should be light, flexible and commensurate with the risks to which the firefighter may be exposed in order to be effective without introducing heat stress to the wearer. Accordingly a risk assessment shoul
25、d be undertaken to determine if the clothing covered by this European Standard is suitable for its intended use and the expected exposure. This European Standard does not cover clothing for use in situations where clothing complying with EN 469 is more suitable, nor does this European Standard cover
26、 clothing to protect against chemical, biological or radiation hazards. The risk assessment should include what additional personal protective equipment is necessary for head, hands and feet. In some situations respiratory protection may be required. Firefighters should be trained in the selection,
27、use, care and maintenance of the protective clothing covered by this European Standard, including an understanding of its limitation. Nothing in this European Standard is intended to restrict any jurisdiction, purchaser or manufacturer from exceeding the minimum requirements in this standard. A list
28、 of standards related to EN 15614 is given in the Bibliography.

29、 requirements for protective clothing, designed to protect the wearers body, except the head, hands and feet, to be worn in wildland firefighting and associated activities. This clothing is not intended to provide protection during fire entrapment. This European Standard covers the general design of
30、 the clothing, the minimum level of performance for the materials employed and the methods of test to determine these levels. This European Standard is not applicable to clothing for use in situations encountered in structural firefighting (EN 469 and ISO 11613) or where a high level of infrared rad
31、iation is expected (EN 1486), nor does this European Standard cover clothing to protect against chemical, biological, electrical or radiation hazards. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
