SBS001 Boiler Suit: User Manual and Certifications
Manual for the Usage, Storage and Maintenance of
Electrostatic Dissipative Protective Clothing Type (SBS001)
Intended Use: The electrostatic dissipative protective clothing type, boilersuit, (SBS001) is designed to be used in an environment which requires the ability to dissipate electrostatic discharges able to initiate ignition. The clothing is designed to be worn in zones: 1, 2, 20, 21 and 22 (see EN 60079-10-1 and EN 60079-10-2) where the minimum ignition energy of the explosive atmosphere is not lower than 0.016 mJ.
Composition: 98% cotton, 2% carbon fibre.
The product conforms to the relevant requirements of the EU harmonisation legislation: Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and the harmonised standards: EN ISO 13688:2013, EN 1149-5:2018. The declaration of conformity is available below
Use: Select protective clothing (SBS001)’s size to fit the user based on the sizes presented on the label attached to the product. The electrostatic dissipative protective clothing should always properly cover the body, shoulders and legs. Always make sure the clothing is accurately fastened or buttoned up when being used. The electrostatic dissipative protective clothing should not be open or removed in the presence of flammable or explosive atmospheres or while working with flammable or explosive substances. It is forbidden to clean, wipe, sweep, dust etc. the clothing in the presence of flammable or explosive atmospheres or while working with flammable or explosive substances. Carry out all cleaning and maintenance operations outside the hazard zone. A person wearing the protective electrostatic dissipative clothing should be properly earthed e.g. by wearing appropriate footwear on a dissipative or conductive floor. The electric resistance between the human skin and the ground should be less than 10^8 Ohm. Visually inspect the clothing for damages before each usage. Damaged, e.g. torn, ripped etc. clothing should be immediately withdrawn from use. The electrostatic dissipative protective clothing should be worn so as to permanently cover up all materials not fulfilling the requirements while doing the everyday work (also while bending, leaning etc.). In the presence of flammable or explosive atmospheres or while working with flammable or explosive substances, you must not hook up to the brackets nor store in the pockets with which the clothing is equipped any protruding objects which have not been approved for use under such hazards.
Transportation and Storage: Store the clothing in its genuine packaging. The clothing should be stored in a dry and well ventilated room far from sources of heat and light, protected against getting stained and damaged. Do not store the clothing for more than 5 years following the date of purchase. Prevent it from getting heavily soiled and stained.
Cleaning and Maintenance:
Maximum 5 washing cycles
1.Maximum washing temperature: 40 C. deg. / 2. Do not use bleaching. / 3. Suitable for drum drying. Low temperature, initial temperature max. 60deg. C. / 4. Maximum temperature of iron sole plate: 150 C deg. / 5. Professional dry cleaning in tetrachloroethylene and all solvents listed for the F symbol.
Disposal: Dispose in conformity to the local regulations mandatory in the given country.
Note:
1. The electrostatic dissipative protective clothing shall not be used in oxygen enriched atmospheres, or in Zone 0 (see EN 60079-10-1) without prior approval of the responsible safety engineer.
2.The electrostatic dissipative performance of the electrostatic dissipative protective clothing can be affected by wear and tear, laundry and possible contaminations.
3.The electrostatic dissipative protective clothing shall be worn in such way that it permanently covers all non-complying materials during normal use (including bending movements).
4. The protective electrostatic dissipative clothing does not provide protection against the impact of flame and hot factors.
5. Do not use the protective electrostatic dissipative clothing for protection against electric shock.
6. The materials used to manufacture the electrostatic dissipative protective clothing have not been found to contain substances likely to cause allergic reactions although in case an allergic reaction is shown, particularly by sensitive persons, they must leave the hazard zone, take off the protective clothing and consult a doctor.
