INSULATING GLOVES for electrical works
Our full range of insulating gloves for live working complies with the specifications of the European standard EN 60903:2003 and the international standard IEC 60903:2002.
Likewise, our production is subjected to a system for ensuring EC quality of production by means of monitoring to implement article 11b of the 89/686/EEC directive relating to Personal Protective Equipment which classifies insulating gloves for live working in category III (mortal risks).
Special properties (sampling test)
Resistance to acid :
conditioning of gloves by immersion for 8 hours at 23 2 C in a sulphuric acid solution at 32 Baume
The tensile strength and elongation at break values must be at least equal to 75% of those of non-conditioned gloves.
The gloves must pass the proof test voltage.
Resistance to oil :
conditioning by immersion in oil (Iiquid 102) for 24 hr at 70 2 C
The tensile strength and elongation at break values must be at least equal to 50% of those of non-conditioned gloves.
The gloves must pass the proof test voltage.
Resistance to ozone :
conditioning of gloves in a chamber for 3 hours at 40 2C and in a 1 mg/m3 ozone concentration
The gloves must not present any cracking
The gloves must pass the proof test voltage.
Resistance to very low temperatures :
conditioning of gloves for 24 hours at -40 3C
The tests are satisfactory if no tearing, breaking or cracking after folding is visible on the cuff and if the gloves pass the proof test voltage.
