The Portwest FR34 flame-resistant coat is specifically designed for professionals who need reliable protection while working in high-risk environments. This coat is worn over other flame-resistant garments to provide an additional barrier against heat and fire. Thanks to the carefully selected materials, this model offers excellent protection in industrial settings, while the lightweight design ensures you can remain comfortable and move freely throughout the working day.
For which specific working environments is this flame-resistant coat from Portwest suitable?
This flame-resistant coat is ideally suited for industrial working environments where employees are exposed to thermal hazards. The garment is certified for use in ATEX environments, meaning it can be safely worn in zones with a potentially explosive atmosphere.
In addition, the coat offers protection against radiant, convective, and contact heat, making it indispensable for work involving flames and high temperatures. Its antistatic properties also prevent the build-up of electrostatic charges that could cause sparks.
What do the safety standards EN ISO 11612 and EN ISO 11611 mean for this flame-resistant coat?
The EN ISO 11612 standard (A1+A2, B1, C1, E2, F1) indicates that the coat has been extensively tested for protection against heat and flames, including flame spread and various heat sources.
The EN ISO 11611 Class 1 (A1+A2) standard confirms that the coat offers protection during light welding techniques and related processes where small splashes of molten metal are present. This makes the garment, in combination with the EN 1149-5 rating for antistatic properties, an extremely safe choice for welders and operators.
