The Portwest FR417 FR chemical-resistant trousers are specially designed for professionals who require reliable protection against flames and liquid chemicals during their daily work. These multi-norm work trousers combine high-quality safety with a functional design for high-risk work environments. Thanks to their flame-retardant and antistatic properties, these trousers provide an excellent barrier against various industrial hazards, keeping you comfortable and optimally protected throughout the entire working day.
For which specific work environments are these Portwest FR chemical-resistant trousers suitable?
These multi-norm trousers are ideally suited for use in ATEX environments where there is a constant risk of explosion due to gases or dust. The trousers are frequently worn in the chemical and petrochemical industries, the energy sector, and during installation work where employees are exposed to heat, flames, and splashes of liquid chemicals.
Thanks to their antistatic properties in accordance with the EN 1149-5 standard, electrostatic charges are safely dissipated, which minimizes the risk of sparking in potentially explosive zones.
What do the EN ISO 11612 and EN 13034 standards mean for these FR chemical-resistant trousers?
The EN ISO 11612 standard guarantees that these trousers provide certified protection against heat and flames, including radiant, convective, and contact heat. The EN 13034 Type 6 standard indicates that the fabric is resistant to light mists and splashes of liquid chemicals.
In addition, the trousers comply with the EN 61482-2 standard for protection against the thermal hazards of an electric arc, which is essential for electrotechnical work.
