ArcFlash Protective Clothing
Electrical ArcFlash Switching Clothing
Elliotts ArcSafe® switching coats, hoods and leggings are designed to be worn when NFPA70E Category 2 or 4 PPE is required.
Each garment is made from eTek NXT or TecaSafe® plus to ensure maximum protection and comfort to the wearer.
What standards should your Arc Flash protective garments comply to?
NFPA 70E is the most widely adopted standard which provides the guidelines on HRC ratings that protective clothing should meet.
The protective clothing should then be tested to the two standards below:
• Hoods and face shields: ASTM F2178-08 Standard Test Method for Determining the Arc Rating and Standard Specification for Eye or Face Protective Products.
• Garments: ASTM F2621-06 Standard Practice for Determining Response Characteristics and Design Integrity of Arc Rated Finished Products in an Electric Arc Exposure
ArcSafe® HRC4 Systems Independently Tested by Kinectrics High Current Laboratory.
All Elliotts ArcSafe HRC4 Systems have been tested by the High Current Laboratory of Kinectrics in Canada.
Kinectrics have tested the ArcSafe HRC4 hoods to ASTM F2178 and garments to ASTM F2621-06 which requires that the finished product be exposed to a level as close as possible to the arc rating of the fabric or system.
This testing by an independent third party provides the wearer with the confidence that the hood or garment will provide the protection required in an arc flash event
