ASTM F 1052 Document Information:
Title
Standard Test Method for Pressure Testing Vapor Protective Ensembles
ASTM International
Publication Date:
May 10, 1997
Scope:
This test method measures the ability of a vapor protective ensemble
(VPE), including seams, and
closures to maintain a fixed, positive pressure.
This test method measures the integrity of the suit, glove,
boot/bootie, and visor materials, as
well as the seams, and closures of a VPE. Exhaust valves fitted in the
VPE must be sealed or
blocked for this test and therefore are not functionally tested.
The values as stated in in.-H2O (mm-H2O) units are to be regarded as
the standard.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use. For
specific hazard statements, see Section 7.
