DISCLAIMER: SELECTION OF PROPER PPE MUST BE BASED ON THE USER, ENVIRONMENT AND APPLICATION AND IS THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE END USER. HONEYWELL SALISBURY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ACCIDENTS, PROPERTY DAMAGE, INJURIES OR DEATH CAUSED BY USE OF INAPPROPRIATE PPE AND/OR BY IMPROPER USE OF PPE

CAREFULLY READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THESE PPE

INTENDED USE OF THE PPE

NOTE: THE PPE IS INTENDED TO PROTECT THE USER FROM THE THERMAL EFFECTS OF AN ELECTRIC ARC FLASH ONLY!

The PPE is NOT intended to be used to provide protection against other risks such as electric shock, mechanical impact, mechanical vibration, physical injury (abrasion, perforation, cuts, bites) or harmful effects of noise. The PPE is not to be used in welding applications.

NOTE: THE PPE MUST NOT COME IN TO CONTACT WITH LIVE EQUIPMENT! WHENEVER POSSIBLE, ALWAYS DE-ENERGIZE CIRCUITS BEFORE WORKING ON OR AROUND THEM.

The PrismShield™ Plus PPE is not intended to protect the user’s eyes from hazards such as high speed projectiles and molten metal splash.
Compatible safety and eye protection conforming to NFPA 70E and/or European Stan-dard EN 166, as described in section 4 of this document, must be worn in conjunction
with the PPE.
The Pro-Wear™ Plus PPE is only intended to provide protection for the limbs and torso of the user. Additional protection for neck, head, foot and hand should be provided, with the use of compatible PPE, as described in section 4 of this document.
The PPE is available in a range of Arc Thermal Performance Value (ATPV) protection classes, as shown in section 2 of this document. ATPV is equal to the amount of incident energy emitted by an electric arc that the PPE will protect before the user will start expe-riencing the second degree burns. It is measured in cal/cm2.
For each application where there is a risk of an electric arc occurrence, a suitable Arc Flash Hazard Analysis MUST ALWAYS be conducted by the user to ascertain the potential incident energy that the electric arc could emit. Each application is unique and can be defined by the following factors required to conduct an Arc Flash
Hazard Analysis, including but not limited to: Arc fault current, Supply voltage, Electrode gap, Number of phases of system, Electrical equipment environment (open air or enclosure),
Arc duration, Distance between the PPE user and an arc, etc.
Once an Arc Flash Hazard Analysis has been conducted, the PPE of an appropriate ATPV class must be selected from the available range.

NOTE: THE ATPV CLASS OF THE PPE SELECTED FOR THE APPLICATION MUST BE HIGHER THAN THE POTENTIAL INCIDENT ENERGY FROM THE ELECTRIC ARC (ESTIMATED FROM AN ARC FLASH HAZARDS ANALYSIS) TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SECOND DEGREE BURNS, SHOULD AN ARC OCCUR

The PPE must always be worn correctly by the user when entering a hazardous area as follows: Where applicable, all zippers must be fully closed and all hook and loop flaps closed fully and flush with no hook or loop portions exposed. Waist straps, where applicable, must be tightened to fit the user snuggly (or “securely”). The PPE must always fit the user correctly. If the PPE is either too loose or too tight, the PPE will not provide an optimum level of protection as the user’s movement and sight may become impeded or the user’s skin or undergarments may become exposed and unprotected. The integrated hard hat, where applicable, must be correctly adjusted to firmly fit the user’s head for it to remain in place for the foreseeable period of use and to allow the user minimal sight and movement impediment. This is done by turning the black adjustment knob located on the rear head strap to either tighten or loosen the head strap. All the PPE products are available in a wide range of sizes to allow the user to choose the correct fit..
Unless otherwise required for your application, hard hats are required when using this PPE to meet all necessary standards and requirements herein.
The hook and loop fastening the face shield to the fabric hood must be firmly attached and must fit flush with no hook or loop portion exposed. Front and rear flaps must drop to the user’s chest and upper back respectively without any hindrance.

NOTE: THE FACE SHIELD AFFECTS COLOR PERCEPTION.

The hard hat must be replaced if subjected to a significant mechanical impact, whether it results in visible damage or not. No part of the hard hat should be removed or modified in any way.

CLASSES OF PROTECTION

The PPE is available in the following ATPV classes of protection:

These ATPV/EBT classes are a result of independent laboratory testing of the PPE to Standard ASTM F1506 as per Test Method ASTM F1959.

CLEANING, MAINTENANCE AND OBSOLESCENCE (END OF LIFE)

The PPE must be kept clean and dry to provide an optimum level of protection.

NOTE: SOILED PPE REDUCES EFFECTIVENESS OF PROTECTION

The following care instructions apply to the fabric component of the PPE which should be removed from the shield and hard hat assembly prior to washing. The face shield must be unfastened and removed prior to cleaning in an ultrasonic bath or with mild soapy lukewarm water. Dry with cleaning paper or lint free cloth.

• The PPE must not be washed in temperatures over 140ºF (60ºC).
• Tumble dry at normal temperature.
• Chlorine bleaches such as those containing sodium hypochlorite and oxygen bleaches such as hydrogen peroxide must not be used to wash the PPE neither directly nor as an ingredient in detergents, as they may affect the protective properties of the PPE.

To provide an optimum level of protection, the PPE must be maintained in its original condition. If the PPE becomes damaged due to factors including but not limited to
rips, cuts, abrasion, perforation, or other incidents that could cause damage but may not result in visible damage, it may not provide the optimum level of protection and must be replaced before being used again.
Wear of the face shield due to scratches may cause the user’s vision to become restricted. Should such wear become apparent, the face shield must be replaced with an original
Salisbury part listed in section 4 of this document. To replace the face shield in a PrismShield™ Plus Hood, simply remove the fabric component of the PPE held on with hook & loop, then un-clip the shield from the hard hat by removing the retaining clips from both sides.
The expected shelf life of the PPE is five years provided that entire kit is box packed and all layers of packaging are intact, have never been opened and have never been used. Each PPE label has the tracking number followed by month and year of manufacturing, in MM-YY format. The expected service life of product is five years, from the month and year of first donning, provided that proper care and maintenance instructions are followed strictly as per the guidelines. Suspend the usage of PPE if you find mechanical damage of any kind or any other damage during the service life.
Each PPE comes with standard warranty of 12 months from the date of shipment for any workmanship defects and equivalent PPE will be provided as a replacement.

NOTE: INSPECT THE PPE BEFORE EACH USE. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE THE PPE FOR ITS INTENDED PURPOSE IF ITS CONDITION IS IN DOUBT!

The PPE will maintain its protective properties until its end of shelf life, end of service life, or until the condition of the PPE is in doubt, whichever occurs first.

COMPATIBILITY, ACCESSORIES/SPARE PARTS AND ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

The Salisbury Pro-Wear™ Plus Bib Overalls or Over Pants must be used properly with Salisbury Pro-Wear™ Plus Coats to provide the user with total limb and torso protection from the thermal effects of an electric arc flash.

NOTE: THE SUSPENDER MATERIAL OF THE SALISBURY PRO-WEARTM PLUS ARC FLASH PROTECTION BIB OVERALLS MUST ALWAYS BE COVERED BY A SALISBURY PRO-WEARTM PLUS COAT.

The Salisbury Pro-Wear™ Plus Arc Flash Protection Coveralls are intended for use as a single garment providing the user with both limb and torso protection from the thermal effects of an electric arc flash.

For neck and head protection from the thermal effects of an electric arc flash, the use of a Salisbury PrismShield™ Plus Arc Flash Protective Hood with an identical ATPV class to the Pro-Wear™ Plus PPE is recommended. Please contact Salisbury for further details or questions. For enhanced eye protection safety glasses complying to ANSI/ISEA Z87.1 are recommended.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PRISMSHIELD™ PLUS PRO HOOD

The PrismShield™ Plus PPE must be used in conjunction with personal protective equipment of similar protective characteristics covering the rest of the user’s body.
For limb and torso protection, it is recommended that either a Salisbury Pro- Wear™ Plus Arc Flash Protection Coverall, or Salisbury Pro-Wear™ Plus Coat and Salisbury Pro-Wear™ Plus Arc Flash Protective Bib Overall combination be used. Please contact Salisbury for further details.
