NFPA 1971

NFPA 1971 Standard on Protective Ensembles for Structural Fire Fighting and Proximity Fire Fighting This standard shall specify the minimum design, performance, testing, and certification requirements for structural fire fighting protective ensembles and ensemble elements that include coats, trousers, coveralls, helmets, gloves, footwear, and interface components. This standard specifies requirements for new structural fire fighting […]

ASTM F2731

ASTM F2731 Stored Energy Test Standards Firefighters are routinely exposed to radiant heat in the course of their activities, and in some cases, firefighters have reported burn injuries under clothing where there is no evidence of damage to the exterior or interior layers of the firefighter protective clothing. Low levels of transmitted radiant energy alone […]

ASTM F2703

ASTM F2703 Standard Test Method for Unsteady-State Heat Transfer Evaluation of Flame Resistant Materials for Clothing with Burn Injury Prediction This test method determines the thermal performance estimate value (TPP) of materials used in flame resistant clothing for workers exposed to combined convective and radiant thermal hazards. This test method maintains the specimen in a […]

ASTM F2702

ASTM F2702 Standard Test Method for Radiant Heat Performance of Flame Resistant Clothing Materials with Burn Injury Prediction This test method is intended for the determination of the radiant heat performance value (RPP) of materials used in flame resistant clothing for workers exposed to radiant thermal hazards. The test specimen is maintained in a static, […]

ASTM F2700

ASTM F2700 Standard Test Method for Unsteady-State Heat Transfer Evaluation of Flame Resistant Materials for Clothing with Continuous Heating This test method measures the non-steady state heat transfer through flame resistant materials for clothing subjected to a continuous, combined convective and radiant heat exposure. The test standard is used to measure and describe the response […]

ASTM F1939

ASTM F1939 Standard Test Method for Radiant Heat Resistance of Flame Resistant Clothing Materials with Continuous Heating This test method evaluates a material’s heat transfer properties when exposed to a continuous and constant radiant heat source. The specimen is maintained in a static, vertical position and it can be tested under two standard sets of […]

ASTM F1930

Standard Test Method for Evaluation of Flame Resistant Clothing for Protection Against Flash Fire Simulations Using an Instrumented Manikin This test method can be used to measure and compare the thermal protection provided by different materials, garments, and clothing ensembles. This test method provides a measurement of garment and clothing ensemble performance on a stationary […]

ASTM F1060

ASTM F1060 Standard Test Method for Thermal Protective Performance of Materials for Protective Clothing for Hot Surface Contact This test method can be used to quantify and compare the thermal insulation of materials used in protective clothing when exposed for a short period of time to a hot surface with a temperature up to 600°F […]
