KEY BENEFITS
Explore the high-level protective benefits of this technology application.
Engineered to form a stable char when exposed to arc flash, heat and flame, protecting the wearer with the best-in-class arc rating: class 2.
Up to 50% lighter than other garments with class 2 arc protection, the garments allow the wearer to be agile even in narrow environments and encourage all day wear.
Designed with single-ply thinner material, wearers feel thermally more comfortable as the fabric doesn't accumulate body temperature, even while being active.
*When combined with GORE-TEX product technology, arc rated GORE® PYRAD® garments are durably waterproof - crucial when work has to continue in the rain.
With comfortable protection that's up to 50% lighter than other class 2 arc protective wear, arc rated GORE® PYRAD® garments allow electrical workers to move freely, even when working in restrictive, narrow environments. Electrical workers will feel far more encouraged to wear their safety clothing at all times - which means they'll also stay protected at all times. When dealing with dangerous electrical situations on a daily basis, the highest level of continuous protection is, of course, essential.
When working in dry, temperate conditions, wearers will also feel comfortable thermally thanks to the single ply, thinner material which doesn't accumulate body temperature, even when the wearer is active.
So whether electrical workers are hard at work indoors, or outdoors, they'll no longer need to compromise on their comfort or safety.
En présence d’arcs électriques, le tissu PYRAD® by GORE-TEX LABS limite le flux de chaleur convective et stoppe les flammes ou les dommages créés par l’arc en formant une barrière de protection par carbonisation du textile. L’intégrité physique du tissu est peservée, limitant le transfert thermique sur la peau.
Pour les employés du secteur de l’électricité et les industries qui recherchent un vêtement de protection léger, souple, répondant aux différentes normes, qui les protège contre une exposition potentielle a un arc électrique, allant jusqu’à la classe 2.
