Chemical protective gloves are classified into three types: A, B and C, which are related to performance levels and the number of chemicals they are protective against. Glove with a length longer than 400mm will have to be additionally testing in the cuff area. EN ISO 374-4:2019 Determination of resistance to degradation by chemicals (DR) Tests puncture resistance before and after exposure to a challenge chemical. The average of the performance will be recorded in the usersheet as a percentage (%). EN ISO 374-5:2016 Terminology and performance requirements for micro-organisms risks Microorganisms are classed as bacteria, viruses or fungi. Gloves protecting against viruses must also pass ISO16604:2004. EN 16523-1:2015+A1:2018 Determination of material resistance to permeation by chemicals. Permeation by liquid chemical under conditions of continuous contact. Testing to determine the level of resistance against chemicals permeating through the glove material. ISO 374-1/Type C ISO 374-1/Type B ISO 374-1/Type A ISO 374-5:2016 ISO 374-5:2016 Marking of gloves protecting against, bacteria and fungi Additional marking for Virus EN ISO 374-2:2019 Determination of resistance to penetration VIRUS Code Chemical Class A Methanol Primary alcohol B Acetone Ketone C Acetonitrile Nitrile compound D Dichloromethane Chlorinated hydrocarbon E Carbon disulphide Sulphur containing organic compound F Toluene Aromatic hydrocarbon G Diethylamine Amine H Tetrahydrofurane Hetero-cyclic and ether compound I Ethyl acetate Ester J n-Heptane Saturated hydrocarbon K 40% Sodium hydroxide Inorganic base L 96% Sulphuric acid Inorganic mineral acid, oxidising M 65% Nitric Acid Inorganic mineral acid, oxidising N 99% Acetic Acid Organic acid O 25% Ammonium hydroxide Organic base P 30% Hydrogen peroxide Peroxide S 40% Hydrofluoric acid Inorganic mineral acid T 37% Formaldehyde Aldehyde Protective Gloves: Mechanical Vibration And Shock EN ISO 10819:2013+A1:2019 (AS/NZS 2161.9) This European Standard specifies a method for the laboratory measurement, the data analysis and reporting of the vibration transmissibility of gloves in terms of vibration transmission from a handle to the palm of the hand in the frequency range from 25 Hz to 1250 Hz. The standard is intended to define a screening test for the vibration transmission through gloves. CE foodsafe European legislationwith respect to Food Contact Materials (Directive EC1935/2004) requires that food contact materials shall not transfer their ingredients to food and must not modify the organoleptic properties (ie. colour, smell, texture and taste) of the food. Products intended for food contact shall be labelled as such. Protective Gloves : For Users Of Hand Held Chainsaws EN ISO 11393-4:2019 This European Standard specifies the requirements for gloves for resistance to cutting by a chainsaw. The requirements are also given for marking and for the provision of information to be supplied by the manufacturer including criteria for the selection of appropriate gloves and instructions for use. Protective Gloves Against Cold EN 511:2006 (AS/NZS 2161.5) The European Standard EN 511 specifies the requirements and test methods for gloves which protect against conductive cold down to -50 degrees Celsius. This cold can be linked to the climate conditions or an industrial activity. EN 16350:2014 Protective Gloves: Electrostatic Properties This European standard specifies a test method for the electrostatic properties of gloves. The test improves on EN1149 as it requires a lower vertical resistance of less than 108 ohms. Gloves tested to EN16350:2014 can be used in areas where there may be an increased risk of explosion, such as in a refinery. IEC 61340-5-1:2016 Protection of Electronic Devices from Electrostatic Phenomena: General Requirements This standard specifies a test method for PPE products used in high sensitive areas where an electrostatic charge can potentially cause damage to delicate components such as electrical circuit boards and microchips. All gloves in the Portwest ESD Glove collection have been tested to both standards. EN 455:2000 Medical gloves for single use Part 1: Requirements and testing for freedom from holes Part 2: Requirements and testing for physical properties Part 3: Requirements and testing for biological evaluation Part 4: Requirements and testing for shelf life determination REQUIREMENTS PERFORMANCE LEVELS 0-1 c: WATER PENETRATION PERFORMANCE LEVELS 1-4 b: RESISTANCE TO CONTACT COLD PERFORMANCE LEVELS 1-4 a: RESISTANCE TO CONVECTIVE COLD Class 0 1 2 3 Maximum chain speed (m/s) 16m/s 20m/s 24m/s 28m/s CLASS 1
