This International Standard gives the characteristics of clothing protecting the wearer against radioactive contamination brought about by contact with liquid or solid substances or by atmospheric pollutants, such as solid particles, mist, gases or vapours.
The International Standard applies to two types of clothing: firstly, ventilated-pressurized garments; secondly, unven-tilated-unpressurized garments.
A test method according to which any new type of garment can be assigned a protection factor that makes it easier for the user to make a choice is described in annex A.
Annexes B and C give methods for measuring leak-tightness and air supply flow r?tes of ventilated-pressurized garments.
Annex F gives, for guidance purposes only, recommendations for choosing protective clothing.
