Riscos e Normas de Segurança
GB 12014-2019
This standard specifies the technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, marking, etc., of electrostatic protective clothing used in places where electric shock, fire, and explosion may be caused by static electricity. The standard, however, does not apply to electrostatic protective clothing made with non-woven and high voltage electrostatic shielding clothing.
Many of our Synergy Pro and Optima DH fabrics distributed in Asia meet this standard. Reach out to our international market manager to learn more.
Riscos Aplicáveis
Arc Flash
The intense energy and short duration of an electric arc represents a unique exposure — one that requires flame-resistant garments durable enough to withstand temperatures that approach 35,000 °F while providing the wearer with protection to self-extinguish when the arc flash event is over (in tenths of a second) and better insulate/protect against a second degree burn through the fabric.
Once ignited, regular cotton or poly/cotton work clothes could continue burning even after the source of the ignition is removed. Westex arc flash protection fabrics, however, will self-extinguish and provide guaranteed flame resistance for the life of the garment.
