- 1 Scope This document specifies the requirements of the sweating manikin and the test procedure used to measure the water vapour resistance of a clothing ensemble , as it becomes effective for the wearer in practical use in a defined environment, with the wearer either standing or moving. This water vapour resistance, among other parameters, can be used to determine the effect of clothing on the physiology of the wearer in specific climate/activity scenarios.
