SAFETY STANDARDS - EN 1149-5
EN 1149-5
Protective clothing with Electrostatic properties
This standard specifies PPE Clothing used in explosive environments (i.e. ATEX) where there is a risk that the garments could create sparks (source of ignition), which in turn could ignite explosive materials.
To certify garments to this standard, the Anti-static properties of the fabric are tested according to EN 1149- 1 (surface resistance) or EN 1149-3 (charge decay). The design of the garment is also a parameter in the certification and CE marking of Anti-static/ATEX garments. With Anti-Static properties and the right design of the garment, you can remove the source of ignition and minimise the risk. ATEX-environments are divided into different zones with different levels of risks. Anti-static garments marked EN 1149-5 are intended to be worn in Atex zones 1, 2, 20, 21 and 22.
