Use
: DHK’s ARC8™ ArcPlus™ pants are designed
to provide protection from arc flash heat exposures. According
to NFPA 70E Hazard Risk Category (HRC) levels, this garment
equals the 8 cal/cm² minimum requirement for Hazard
Risk Category 2. 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 ARC8™ clothing labels or BIRG™
(Burn Injury Reduction Guide SM ) 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. |
