Dupont Tempro ProShield 6 SFR Coveralls, Zipper Front, Standard Fit Hood, Elastic Wrists and Ankles, Serged Seams, Blue, 25 each/cs, Mfg# TM127SBU

ProShield® 6 SFR is a cost-efficient disposable over garment designed to help protect and preserve primary flame resistant garments. ProShield® 6 SFR garments are intended to be worn over primary flame resistant garments to provide a barrier against non-hazardous particles and aerosols.
ProShield® 6 SFR garments are designed to not contribute to additional burn injury in the event of an industrial fire or electric arc event. ProShield® 6 SFR garments will not ignite and continue to burn after the flame source is removed. ProShield® 6 SFR garments are an excellent choice as a cost efficient cover to protect reusable FR garments. Applications include: Steel Mills, Coal Mines, Maintenance Work, Refineries, Laboratories, Utilities

• Attached hood with elastic around face opening

Product Q & A:

Will ProShield® 6 SFR fabric burn?
Yes, when exposed to a flame, the ProShield® 6 SFR fabric will burn. However, when the flame source is removed, the ProShield® 6 SFR fabric will self-extinguish. However, garments made of ProShield® 6 SFR should not be used alone in areas where protection from fire or electric arc is required.

Can ProShield® 6 SFR garments be used as primary flame resistant (FR) garments?
No. Primary flame resistant (FR) garments, such as those made with DuPont™ Nomex® IIIA fabric, can be worn alone to provide the necessary level of protection from a flame/thermal threat. Garments made of ProShield® 6 SFR fabric are not substitutes for primary flame resistance protective garments. DuPont™ ProShield® 6 SFR garments are engineered to be worn over your primary flame resistant / thermal protective garments to provide barrier protection from non-hazardous dry particulates and aerosols while not contributing to potential burn injury in the event of a flash fire or electric arc. Garments made of ProShield® 6 SFR are flame retardant treated and designed to help keep the wearer's primary flame resistant garment clean.

What is the difference between primary and secondary flame resistant (FR) garments?
Primary flame resistant garments are designed to provide stand alone protection from flame and arc exposures. Common examples are garments of Nomex® IIIA and Protera®. Primary flame resistant garments selected based on the hazard analysis, when worn alone, can provide some protection from burn injury in the event of an industrial fire or electric arc exposure.
Secondary flame resistant garments are made with fabrics that are treated to resist ignition and to self extinguish once the flame/heat source is removed. Secondary flame resistant garments are not expected to contribute to burn injury if exposure to heat and flame occurs when worn over an appropriate primary flame resistant garment. However, secondary flame resistant garments (like ProShield® 6 SFR ) are not expected to provide any protection from burn injury to the wearer when worn without primary flame resistant garments underneath.
