Scope

This document specifies minimum safety requirements and test methods for a firehood to be worn during firefighting operations to protect against heat and fire. This document has two optional requirements: firehoods can be either with a ventilation window for comfort, or a barrier for protection against particulate contaminants, or both. This document applies in situations when protective clothing (e.g. EN 469, EN ISO 15384), respiratory protection devices (e.g. EN 136 and EN 137), and helmet (e.g. EN 443, EN 16471) are also worn.
