For which specific tasks and sectors are these flame-resistant waterproof trousers most suitable?
These multi-norm trousers are ideally suited for heavy industrial sectors such as petrochemicals, offshore, installation engineering, and the energy sector.
The trousers offer certified protection during welding work in accordance with EN ISO 11611 and protect against the thermal hazards of an electric arc. Thanks to their waterproof and breathable properties in accordance with EN 343 class 4:3, the garment is ideal for outdoor use in harsh, wet conditions where there is also a risk of flame contact or chemical splashes (EN 13034).
What do the specific standards of these flame-resistant waterproof trousers mean for my safety?
The standards guarantee that the trousers meet strict European safety requirements for complex risks in the workplace.
The EN ISO 11612 standard proves that the fabric protects against radiant, convective, and contact heat, with flame-resistant properties that are inherent and therefore do not wash out. The EN 61482-2 standard with APC 1 and an ELIM value of 8.3 cal/cm² offers protection against the thermal hazards of an electric arc, which is crucial for working safely on electrical installations.
