STANDARD
PARTIAL BODY PROTECTION
Warning: The choice and use of an item of personal protective equipment must comply with European Directive no. 89/656/EEC of 30/11/1989.
The employer must have first analysed and assessed the risks involved in the intervention and those generated by the use of the personal
protective equipment selected.
Foreword: This article has to be used under the supervision of the person in charge of the intervention who must have ensured in advance that:
This article offers adequate protection for the category of risks encountered during the intervention. The wearer is in possession of adequate
additional equipment (garment, gloves, respiratory mask, shoes or boots that are compatible with the desired performances). The entire
intervention is supervised and all necessary means of rescue are available in case of an incident in the course of action.
This article provides protection to parts of the body only.
Area of application: This protective clothing provides the wearer a partial protection against certain spray chemicals, for a limited period of time.
The resistance against different chemicals is described here below. Northylon hood FS2N (item N72750002) and Northylon hood FS3N (item
N72750003) provide protection against facial spray only. The nature of the work to be carried and the applicable chemicals together with the
related dangers determine the chemical protective clothing to be worn. If any doubt, the user must contact the product supplier.
Usage: Prior to use: Before using this protective clothing, the wearer must check that the protection offered meets the conditions for safe use.
Ensure that the clothing has been cleaned in the correct manner (following the previous usage) and inspected as described in this instruction for
use. Remove the protection film on both side of the visor. For the Northylon hood FS2N (item N72750002) and Northylon hood FS3N (item
N72750003), insert the visor in the top white part and fix it with the 3 inside clips.
Warning: if any doubt about the correct application, please contact your supplier or the labour inspection.
Putting in use: This equipment has to be worn in a manner that, during the work, maximal protection will be achieved. Put and adjust the hood on
your head. With FS2N and FS5N hoods, adjust the fastener under the neck. With FS3N hood, close the 2 buttons under the neck.
During use: In the event of a leakage or damage to the hood material, leave the working environment immediately and remove the hood.
After use: After use: Remove the hood and remove any loss particles with a brush or a cloth. Clean and check the hood as described in the part
"cleaning and disinfection" and "inspection".
Cleaning and disinfection: Reusable hood. For the decontamination procedure and recommendations see the instructions for product use.
After each session, clean the hood, using water and a mild detergent (e.g. EW 80 Tremonia Chemie, Dortmund). The washing temperature has
to be less than 30°C. Reduce mechanical action. Do not bleach. Subsequently, rinse thoroughly with clean water. Do not use solvents.
Dry the hood with a cloth and/or leave it to dry in the open air. Do not iron. Dispose contaminated hood by suitable means (depending on the
chemical subjected to it).
Inspection: After each cleaning activity, check the hood for tears, holes or damage to the coating. The visor of the Northylon hoods FS2N and
FS3N, is commutable. If it is damaged, it can be changed very easily by a clip system.
Storage: In the original packaging, out of light and dust, between + 5°C and + 25°C. To avoid the risk of deterioration (crushing, deformation,
etc.), this Personal Protective Equipment should be stored in its initial packaging (cardboard box) until used.
Important: This garment is not suitable for use during fire extinguishing (flammable material-keep away from fire) or for use in temperature
exceeding 50°C. This equipment may only be used by persons who are aware of the dangers relating to the work to be carried out. This user
information does not contain information about additionally attached personal protective equipment, as e.g. coverall, gloves, respiratory mask
and boots. Refer to the respective user manuals. To assess the chemical durability the shortest chemical permeation time of a component has to
be considered for the complete system (suit and accessories). Northylon hood FS5N can cause heat stress. Frequent rest is advised.
Ergonomics / Safety materials: The materials employed as combined and presented are not hazardous or in any particular respect noxious
(e.g. irritant to the skin) for the wearer of the equipment. The materials used in the manufacturing of the hoods do not contain any substances at
levels know or suspected to affect the health or hygiene of the use in the foreseeable conditions of use. However, we ask you to avoid direct
contact between the materials and mucous membranes.
Waste management: Refer to the local legislation.
