Significance and Use4.1 As with other hazardous materials protective ensembles, air-fed protective ensembles include clothing and equipment

36、itemsneeded for dermal and respiratory protection, including protective suits, gloves, footwear, and eye/face protection. Unlike otherprotective ensembles, air-fed protective ensembles do not use separate respiratory protective devices such as self-containedbreathing apparatus (SCBA) or non-powered

37、air-purifying respirators (APRs).4.1.1 Those types of respirators normally have a tight-fitting face piece that provides inhalation hazard protection and dermalexposure protection to the face, eyes, nose, and mouth.4.1.2 Air-fed protective ensembles are worn without the use of a separate respirator.

38、 The entire suit serves as the respiratoryprotective device and also provides dermal exposure protection. The wearer breathes supplied air or filtered air pumped into theprotective suit.4.2 Air-fed protective ensembles are used to protect workers in a number of applications.4.2.1 These include, but

39、are not limited to: chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing, remediation of hazardous materialssites, use against highly infectious biological agents in BioSafetyBiosafety Level 4 laboratories, and for protection of workersinvolved in nuclear and radiological facilities, where it is possible radio

40、active particles will be encountered.4.3 The requirements of this specification have been partly based on the NFPA1991 standard, which establishesand NFPA1994standards, which establish criteria for vapor-protective ensembles used in hazardous materials emergencies. NFPA1991 establishesrequirements f

41、or a protective ensemble that encapsulates the wearer and the breathing apparatus. NFPA 1994 establishesrequirements for a protective ensemble under Class 1 requirements that in some configurations encapsulates the wearer and thebreathing apparatus.4.3.1 In this specification, a breathing apparatus

42、is not worn inside the suit, but instead breathing air is connected to the suiteither via an external airline air line or respiratory protective equipment that is externally connected to the suit wall. Extensivecriteria for the integrity of the overall ensemble are applied through design and perform

43、ance requirements. This allows for differentconfigurations of a protective ensemble that incorporates a hooded visor, protective gloves, protective footwear, and the respiratoryprotective equipment.4.4 The qualification of the respiratory protective equipment is addressed by the applicable requireme

44、nts for respiratorsestablished in 42 CFR Part 84. As such, the entire air-fed ensemble is subject to certification by NIOSH in addition to meeting therequirements in this specification.4.5 This specification establishes classifications for the protective ensemble. The classifications include one tha

45、t is determinedby the configuration of the protective ensemble and one that concerns the use of the protective ensemble.4.5.1 A protective ensemble can be classified as an “Airline Protective Ensemble” or a “PAPR-Based Air-Fed ProtectiveEnsemble.”“air line protective ensemble” or a “PAPR-based air-f

46、ed protective ensemble.” Under each of these classifications,protective ensembles can be further classified as “Limited Use” and “Multiple Use.”“limited use” and “multiple use.”4.5.2 These classifications account for differences in the configuration of the air supply and material strength and durabi

47、lity.These classifications do not account for the decontamination effectiveness of multiple-use ensembles.4.6 In recognition of the potential diverse applications to which the protective ensemble can be used, documentationrequirements are provided for manufacturers to base claims for permeation resi

48、stance of ensemble materials against specificF2704 17a3chemicals or for claims of ensemble material performance against bloodborneblood-borne (or liquidborne)liquid-borne) pathogens.Similar requirements are established for the respiratory protective equipment, when this equipment is based on the use

49、 of filters,cartridges, or canisters.4.7 An extensive section is provided in the specification addressing the certification of air-fed protective ensembles. Thiscertification section is based on provisions established in NFPA 1991 The requirements in the certification section are based onthe recommendations provided for conformity assessment example category B inAnnexA2 of Guide F3050and other National FireProtection Association product standards for emergency services protective clothing and equipment This category specifies thatthe supplier provides a dec
