Poor weather: The water resistance of fabric/seams is measured using the water
column test method to determine the penetration of fabric and seams before and after
treatment. The performance is specified in three classes, with Class 3 denoting the
highest level.

Water vapour resistance is a measure of the garment's ability to allow water vapour to
pass through the fabric. Class 1 (R
Class 3 (R
≤ 20) indicates high breathability or ability to transport moisture.

"–" means unlimited wearing time.
The chart above shows the effect of the water vapour's penetration ability on the
recommended continuous wearing time at different working temperatures.
The figures in the chart specify the maximum recommended wearing time for a com-
plete outfit (jacket and trousers) without a warm lining.
The chart is applicable at a medium physical load M = 150 W/m
relative humidity and wind speed va = 0.5 m/s. Effective ventilation openings and/or
breaks can extend the wearing time.
USER INSTRUCTIONS
Protective clothing that is certified to the EN 343 standard to withstand precipitation,
fog and ground humidity and is tested accordingly. The garment should be closed pro-
perly before use to ensure maximum protective performance. If the protective garment
is dirty, its performance will be impaired. The garment should be cared for according to
the instructions inside the garment to ensure maximum protective performance. Please
see the CE label inside the garment to find out its protection class under the EN 343
standard. The protective clothing must be stored in a dry and well-ventilated space. The
garment is not suitable for use when working with fire. If the fabric has become worn or
torn, the protective garment will not provide satisfactory protection.
This type of personal protective equipment has been type tested against European test
standard methods by FIOH, Topeliusgatan 41, FI-00250 Helsinki, Finland, registered
body no. 0403.
