Introduction A given respiratory protective device incorporating a helmet or a hood can only be approved when the individual components satisfy the requirements of the test speci

37、fication which may be a complete standard or part of a standard, and practical performance tests have been carried out successfully an complete apparatus where specified in the appropriate standard. If for any reason a complete apparatus is not tested then simulation of the apparatus is permitted pr

38、ovided the respiratory characteristics and weight distribution are similar to those of the complete apparatus. 1 Scope This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for powered filtering devices incorporating a helmet or a hood with gas, particle or combined filter(s) for respiratory protect

39、ion. It does not cover devices designed for use in circumstances where there is or might be an Oxygen deficiency (Oxygen less than 17 % by volume). Also, it does not cover respiratory protective devices designed for escape purposes. Laboratory and practical performance tests are included for the ass

40、essment of compliance with the requirements. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.
