JIS T 8124-1 Performance Requirements for Chemical Protective Clothing That Protects the Whole Body Against Solid Particles (Type 5 Clothing) in the Air

The JIS T 8124-1 standard, developed by the Japanese Industrial Standards organization (JIS), describes the properties and test methods of chemical protective clothing that protects the entire body against airborne solid chemical particles. The full name of this standard is as follows: JIS T 8124-1 Protective clothing for use against solid particles - Part 1: Performance requirements for chemical protective clothing that protects the entire body against solid particles in the air (type 5 clothing).

In fact, the basis of the standard in question is based on the ISO 13982-1 standard published by the International Standards Organization (ISO) and this standard was published in our country by the Turkish Standards Institute (TSE) with the following title: TS EN ISO 13982-1 They will wear protective clothing against solid particles - Part 1 : Performance rules for the chemical protective clothing that protects the whole body against airborne solid particles chemicals (they will wear type 5).

In short, this standard specifies the performance requirements of chemical protective clothing that provides the entire body with protection against solid particles in the air. These garments are type 8115 garments as described in the JIS T 5 standard. However, this standard does not apply to chemical protective clothing that protects against solid dust (for example, solid dust gets into clothing by rubbing or stretching).

Chemical protective clothing defined in JIS T 8124-1 standard, full body protective clothing such as a hooded or visorless, foot protected or unprotected, such as a one-piece jumpsuit or suit. Components that are not integrated into chemical protective clothing, such as headgear, gloves, shoes, visors, or requirements for respiratory protective equipment, are described in JIS T 8151 and other standards.

Within the framework of the laboratory services of the materials, JIS T 8124-1 provides chemical protection clothing testing services to the whole body, which provides protection to the entire body against solid particles (type 5 clothing).
