Wildland firefighting personal protective equipment. Requirements and test methods

PUBLISH DATE 2011
PAGES 84
BSI BS ISO 16073:2011

This International Standard specifies the minimum performance requirements and methods of test for personal protective equipment (PPE) covering the torso, neck, arms, hands, legs, feet, head, eyes and hearing for wildland firefighting.

This International Standard covers the general design of the PPE, the minimum levels of performance for the materials employed and the methods of test used. This PPE is not intended to provide protection during fire entrapment.

This International Standard does not cover PPE for structural firefighting (see ISO 11613), for use against chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear hazards, or for use where a reflective outer surface is required (see ISO 15538).

Activities in support of wildland firefighting, such as the cutting of trees and the use of a chainsaw can require additional protection to that provided in this International Standard. Users are directed to those relevant standards for the requirements associated with such protection.

NOTE Performance requirements for respiratory protective devices (RPD) for wildland firefighting are not available at the time of publication. An International Standard for RPD is under development.
