Title
Standard Test Method for Liquid Penetration Resistance of Protective Clothing or Protective Ensembles Under a Shower Spray While on a Mannequin
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Oct 15, 2007
Scope:
This test method measures the ability of protective clothing or
protective ensembles to resist liquid penetration in the form of a
shower spray with surfactant-treated water.
This test method measures the liquid penetration resistance of
the construction and configuration of the overall protective
clothing or protective ensemble, but especially of seams, closures,
and interfaces with other components such as gloves, boots, hoods,
and respiratory protective equipment. It is intended that this test
method be used to assess the liquid penetration resistance of
protective clothing and protective ensembles as received from the
manufacturer and worn in accordance with their instructions.
Resistance of materials used in protective clothing to
permeation or penetration can be determined in accordance with Test
Methods F 739 and F 903, respectively.
The integrity of vapor protective ensembles is measured by its
ability to maintain positive internal pressure with Test Method F
1052.
The values in SI units or in other units shall be regarded
separately as standard. The values stated in each system must be
used independently of the other, without combining values in any
way.
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.
