Connection elements or equipment component. A lanyard can be in rope made of synthetic fibres, in metallic rope, in strap or in chain.
CAUTION: A lanyard without energy absorber must not be used as a fall arrest equipment.

Its objective is to develop test methods and requirements in the form of standards defining the technical specifications of products. Some of them, mostly requirements standards, are harmonised with EU Regulation 2016/425. Compliance with these harmonised standards gives an assurance of compliance with the requirements of EU Regulation 2016/425

PROTECTION AGAINST HEAT AND FLAME

Protection against heat and flame. This standard specifies the performance requirements of materials and protective clothing against heat and flames. They apply to clothing made of soft material, designed to protect the human body except the hands against heat and/ or flame.
Tested are:

MAIVE2
	EN ISO 11612
	A1 A2 B1 C1 E3 F1

PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AGAINST COOL ENVIRONMENTS

This standard specifies the requirements and performance test methods for protective garments (vests, jackets, coats, trousers) against cool environments.

These garments are for use in moderate low temperatures (-5°C and over) to protect against local body cooling. Not only for outdoor use such as in the construction industry; may also be used for indoor activities, such as in the food processing industry.

These garments are not always necessarily made of air impermeable or watertight materials.

Therefore, in this European standard, these requirements are optional.

X : Class of heat resistance, Rct

X : Class of air permeability, AP

X : /cler of the garment (Optional)

X : Class of resistance to water penetration WP (Optional)
