EN 469:2005 (E) 5Introduction The purpose of this European Standard is to provide minimum performance requirements for pr
31、otective clothing for firefighters, whilst fighting fires. Within this European Standard, two performance levels are given for performance requirements 6.2, 6.3, 6.11 and 6.12 - level 1 is the lower level, level 2, the higher level. The level of personal protection chosen should be based on the outc
32、ome of a risk assessment. Annex G lists many of the hazards that may be encountered by firefighters and sets out guidelines for carrying out a risk assessment analysis. During an incident, hazards other than those against which clothing to this European Standard is intended to protect may be encount
33、ered 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 covered by this European S
34、tandard. In this European Standard, some requirements have an influence on ergonomics and additional informative annexes on ergonomic features and physiological / heat stress hazards are included in the form of guidelines because suitable tests for these requirements have not yet been validated inte
35、rnationally. It is important that further requirements for ergonomic aspects of protective clothing become integrated normative parts of European standards such as this and currently work on this is taking place. The requirement regarding water vapour resistance in 6.12, level 1, is proposed for an
36、amendment (procedure). For adequate overall protection against the risks to which firefighters 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 specifie
37、d controlled laboratory tests used to determine compliance with the performance requirements of this European Standard do not replicate the situations to which firefighting personnel may be exposed. This European Standard sets minimum levels of performance requirements. Nothing in this European Stan
38、dard is intended to restrict any jurisdiction, purchaser or manufacturer from exceeding these minimum requirements. NOTE It is essential that firefighters are trained in the selection, use, care and maintenance of all personal protective equipment. Attention is drawn to CEN/TR 14560:2003, which sets
39、 out guidelines for selection, use, care and maintenance of protective clothing against heat and flame. EN 469:2005 (E) 61 Scope This European Standard specifies minimum levels of performance requirements for protective clothing to be worn during firefighting operations and associated activities suc
40、h as e.g. rescue work, assistance during disasters. The described clothing is not meant to protect against deliberate chemical and/or gas cleaning operations. This European Standard covers the general clothing design, the minimum performance levels of the materials used, and the methods of test to b
41、e used to determine these performance levels. The required performance levels may be achieved by the use of one or more garments. This European Standard covers the event of an accidental splash of chemical or flammable liquids but does not cover special clothing for use in other high-risk situations
42、 e.g. reflective protective clothing. It does not cover protection for the head, hands and feet or protection against other hazards e.g. chemical, biological, radiological and electrical hazards. These aspects may be covered in other European Standards. EN 469:2005 (E) 72 Normative References The fo
