EN 1149-5 specifies material and design requirements for electrostatic dissipative protective clothing, including hoods and caps, used as part of a total earthed system, to avoid incendiary discharges, where the minimum ignition energy of an explosive atmosphere is not less than 0,016 mJ.
Flash fires have a heat flux of approximately 84kW/m2 and typically last less than three seconds. Wearing flash fire flame-resistant clothing that self-extinguishes can give workers must-needed time to escape a flash fire and dramatically reduce burn injuries.
