RISKS AGAINST WHICH THE PRODUCT IS DESIGNED TO PROTECT:
These accessories only provide partial body protection
and are intended to protect those parts of the body exposed to risk. They are designed to protect workers from hazardous substances, or sensitive products
and processes from contamination by people. They may be used separately or in combination with other Personal Protective Equipment to increase the protection
level needed. They are typically used, depending on chemical toxicity and exposure conditions, for protection against certain organic (Tychem® 6000 F) & inorganic
(Tychem® 2000 C) liquids. Fabrics used for these accessories have passed all tests of EN 14126:2003 (protective clothing against infective agents). Under
the exposure conditions as defined in EN 14126:2003 and mentioned in the table above, the obtained results conclude that the materials offer a barrier
against infective agents.
LIMITATIONS OF USE
: These accessories and/or fabrics are not flame resistant and should not be used around heat, open flame, sparks or in poten-
tially flammable environments. Tyvek® melts at 135°C, the fabric coatings melt at 98°C. It is possible that a type of exposure to bio hazards not corresponding
to the tightness level of these accessories may lead to a bio-contamination of the user. According to the European standard (EN 14605:2005 + A1 2009; Type
PB [3-B]) for chemical protective clothing Category III: these accessories offer partial body protection and have not been tested according to the whole suit
Jet test (EN ISO 17491-3:2008). Exposure to certain very fine particles, intensive liquid sprays and splashes of hazardous substances may require full body
personal protective equipment (e.g. coverall) of higher mechanical strength and barrier properties than those offered by these accessories. The user must
ensure suitable reagent to garment compatibility before use. For enhanced protection in certain applications, whole suit chemical protective garments un-
derneath with taping of cuffs, ankles and hood will be necessary. The user shall verify that tight taping is possible in case the application would require doing
so. For best results in taping, the pieces of tape should overlap themselves. Care shall be taken when applying the tape, that no creases appear in the fabric or
tape since those could act as channels. Ensure, that the ties on the overboots, made of these fabrics are securely tied and do not constitute a tripping hazard.
Despite the slip retardant sole on the overboots, care should be taken to avoid slipping, especially on wet surfaces. Ensure the overboots provide adequate
mechanical resistance for the surface to be walked upon and that the sole is not damaged. The sole of the overboots is not liquid tight. The overboots, offering
limited protection in spray form, are unsuitable for walking or standing in liquid spills and must be worn in conjunction with appropriate chemical resistant
footwear. These accessories shall not be used whilst in presence of flammable or explosive atmospheres or while handling flammable or explosive substances.
Please ensure that you have chosen the accessories suitable for your job. For advice, please contact your supplier or DuPont. The user shall perform a risk anal-
ysis upon which he shall base his choice of PPE. He shall be the sole judge for the correct combination of the partial body protective accessories and ancillary
equipment (gloves, boots, respiratory protective equipment etc.) and for how long these accessories can be worn on a specific job with respect to its protec-
tive performance, wear comfort or heat stress. DuPont shall not accept any responsibility whatsoever for improper use of these accessories.
PREPARING FOR USE
: In the unlikely event of defects, do not wear the accessory.
STORAGE AND TRANSPORT
: These accessories may be stored between 15 and 25°C in the dark (cardboard box) with no UV light exposure.
DuPont has performed tests according to ASTM D-572 with the conclusion that these fabrics retain adequate physical strength over a period of 10 years.
Product shall be transported and stored in its original packaging.
DISPOSAL
:These accessories can be incinerated or buried in a controlled landfill without harming the environment. Disposal of contaminated garments
is regulated by national or local laws.
