| Use
: DHK’s ARC15™ ArcPlus™ shirts are designed
to provide protection from arc flash heat exposures. According
to NFPA 70E Hazard Risk Category (HRC) levels, this garment
significantly exceeds the Hazard Risk Category 2 required
minimum arc protection of 8 cal/cm². Be aware that
the arc rating (ATPV) of a fabric, as defined in ASTM
F1959-04, indicates a 50% probability of a second-degree
burn based on the Stoll curve. Consult the ARC15™
label or the Oberon Burn Injury Reduction Guide (BIRG™)
for reduced probability of a burn injury + . Always perform
a hazard analysis and use higher protection than the hazard
you are facing. |
| Cleaning
Instructions & Maintenance : All garments
should be free of contaminants.
Flammable contaminants can reduce protection level. Garments
can be machine washed with detergent and tumble-dried.
Oberon’s inherently flame resistant garments will
not lose the flame resistant properties of the fabrics
due to laundering of the garment. |
