  • These garments are not intended to provide protection against large splashes of molten metal
  • Garments if worn next to skin may not eliminate all risk of burns
  • These garments can only protect where it covers the body, additional partial body protection may be required
  • Non conforming garments to EN ISO 11612 and / or EN 1149-5 when worn over these garments eliminates the effectiveness of these garments
  • Workers wearing electrostatic dissipative protective clothing should be properly earthed via electrostatic dissipative footwear meeting EN 344 or EN 345 or by other suitable means
  • The garment is only intended to protect against brief inadvertent contact with live parts of an arc welding circuit and that additional electrical insulation layers will be required where there is an increased risk of electric shock.
  • The level of protection against flame will be reduced if the welder’s protective clothing is contaminated with flammable material
  • The electrostatic dissipative performance of the electrostatic dissipative protective clothing can be affected by wear and tear, laundering and possible contamination
  • The electrostatic dissipative protective clothing shall not be used in oxygen enriched atmospheres without prior approval of the responsible safety engineer at site
  • The electrostatic protection provided by the garment will be reduced when it is wet, dirty or soaked with sweat
  • In case of a two-piece protective garment, both the items should be worn together to provide the specific level of Protection

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

STORAGE

Importance should be placed on ensuring gaments are not subjected to damp storage conditions and under direct. Sunlight, as direct sunlight may cause the color to fade. Garment, if unused for 1 year should be washed as per the care instruction before use.

OBSOLESCENCE

The flame retardant properties of this fabric are guaranteed for the wear life of the garment. Proper wash care instructions have to be followed.

REPAIRS

In Incorrect repairs will adversely affect protection and may therefore reduce this garment’s protection below the minimum requirements, to which it was manufactured. Ensure that the garment is repaired with fabric of the specified type only. All accessories are to be replaced using the specified product.
