SHINEQUIP
supply heavy weight 100% Cotton fabric; specially treated
with a flame retardant finish. Fully certified to the
European Standard EN470 and EN531 and USA standard NFPA2112.
And reflective vest, non-voven disposable coveralls for
medical and chemical industry protection use.
NFPA
2112 Standard
on Flame-Resistant Garments for Protection of Industrial
Personnel Against Flash Fire. NFPA 2112 became one of the
first standards to provide minimum performance criteria for
flame resistant fabrics and guidelines for testing on
instrumented thermal manikins. The guidelines of NFPA 2112
call for testing manikin testing per ASTM F1930; Standard
Test Method for Evaluation of Flame Resistant Clothing for
Protection Against Flash Fire Simulations
Using an Instrumented Manikin. NFPA 2112 calls for testing
to be conducted at 3 seconds with a pass/fail
rate of 50% under the testing protocols set in ASTM F1930.
These are the first real guidelines and criteria created by
the industry to better understand and compare the protective
performance of flame resistant fabrics.
Typical Uses:
Welding, Cutting, Grinding, Electrical on-shore and
off-shore oil & gas industries, Automotive, Public Utilities
and many more industries.
EN470-1:1995
Is the harmonised European standard for protective clothing
for welding & allied processes. Garments are intended to
protect the wearer against small droplets of molten metal
splash from welding and cutting.
EN531:1995
Is the harmonized European standard for protective clothing
for industrial workers exposed to heat (excluding fire
fighters).
SHINEQUIP fabric are tested to comply with the following
classifications:
*Index A -Limited flame spread
*Index B1 -Convective heat
*Index C1 -Radiant heat
EN533 :1997
Is the harmonized European standard for the performance
requirements for limited flame spread properties.
In evaluating fabric for Protection, Comfort and Value,
SHINEQUIP have become the new industry leader in the Oil, Gas,
Petrochemical and Chemical industries. Companies employees
now can have the comfort of cotton while still meeting the
industry standards and exceeding the performance of other
flame resistant fabrics |
