BS ISO 11613:2017 ✓ Most Recent

BS ISO 11613:2017 specifies test methods and minimum performance requirements for protective clothing used by firefighters who are engaged in support activities of firefighting. This clothing is not intended for interior attack firefighting. These support activities of firefighting are defined (see 3.8.2) as activities such as:

• water and material supply;
• extinguishing fires from the outside of the structure;
• prevention of exterior spreading to adjacencies, preventing enviromental damage and limiting effect of smoke;
• securing traffic and environment;
• first aid base activities;
• preparing the fire ground for subsequent activities;
• RPD replenishment tasks;
• assessment zone;
• BA communication;
• forward command post;
• evacuation;
• assist planning;
• assist logistics;
• assist communication;
• transportation.

This document covers the general clothing design, the minimum performance levels of the materials used, and the methods of test for determining these performance levels.

This document is not equivalent to ISO 11999?3, clothing worn by firefighters who are at risk of exposure to high levels of heat and/or flame while fighting fires occurring in structures. This document provides lower minimum level of protection.
