24、m. EN 16689:2017 (E) DIN EN 16689:2017-06 5 Introduction The purpose of this European Standard is to provide minimum performance requirements for protective clothing for technical rescues. During an incident, hazards other than those against which the clothing to this European Standard is intended t
25、o protect may be encountered e.g. chemical, biological, radiological and electrical. If the risk assessment identifies that exposure to such hazards is likely, protection by more appropriate personal protective equipment may be required, either instead of or in addition to the protective clothing in
26、 this European Standard. For adequate overall protection against the risks to which wearers are likely to be exposed, additional personal protective equipment to protect the head, face, hands and feet should also be worn, along with appropriate respiratory protection where necessary. The specified c
27、ontrolled laboratory tests used to determine compliance with the performance requirements of this European Standard do not replicate the situations to which wearers may be exposed. Nothing in this European Standard is intended to restrict any jurisdiction, purchaser or manufacturer from exceeding th
28、ese minimum requirements. EN 16689:2017 (E) DIN EN 16689:2017-06 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the minimum requirements for technical rescue clothing. Technical rescues involves work associated with the environments, and conditions associated with operational scenarios such as but not l
29、imited to those found during road traffic collisions and when working in and around collapsed structures often for extended periods of time after natural disasters (earthquake, landslides, etc.) where protection against mechanical risks, limited heat and flame and conspicuity is needed. NOTE This co
30、uld involve heavy workloads, working in confined spaces and require conspicuity in public places. This European Standard covers the general clothing design, the minimum performance levels of the material used, the methods of test to be used to determine these performance levels, and marking and info
31、rmation supplied by the manufacturer. Unless combined with other specialized PPE and tested accordingly this standard is not applicable to clothing used to protect against risks encountered in fighting fires, wildland fires or rescue from fire, dealing with hazardous chemicals, working with chainsaw
32、s and water and rope rescue. This European Standard does not cover protection for the head, hands and feet or protection against other hazards e.g. chemical, radiological and electrical hazards. These aspects are covered in other European Standards. 2 Normative references The following documents, in
