FAQs

What type of heat hazards does this coverall protect against?

This coverall provides protection against radiant, convective, and contact heat, as well as welding and molten metal splash hazards, meeting standards like EN ISO 11612 and EN ISO 11611.

Does this coverall offer protection against electric shock?

Yes, it is designed with anti-static properties (EN 1149-5) and offers protection against electric arc hazards (IEC 61482-2), but it is not a substitute for insulated electrical gloves or other specialized electrical safety gear.

Can I wear this coverall for everyday work?

While comfortable, this coverall is specifically designed for high-risk environments involving significant heat, flame, or electrical hazards. For general work, standard workwear may be more appropriate.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the Portwest size chart available on their product pages. The coverall should fit comfortably without restricting movement, allowing for layering if necessary.

What is the ATPV rating of this coverall?

The ATPV (Arc Thermal Performance Value) rating is 13.6 Cal/CM², which indicates its level of protection against arc flash incidents.

Can this coverall be washed at home?

Yes, it can be machine washed at a maximum of 60°C (140°F) with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners to preserve its protective qualities.

What does Class 2 welding protection mean?

Class 2 welding protection signifies a higher level of defense against welding hazards compared to Class 1, suitable for more challenging welding environments and techniques.

Troubleshooting

Coverall feels stiff after washing.

This can be normal for flame-retardant fabrics. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners. Gentle ironing on a low setting may help soften the fabric.

Reflective tape is peeling or damaged.

Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying. If damage occurs, the reflective properties are compromised. Consider replacement if safety is affected.

Zippers are difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Gently try to move the zipper. If it persists, check for debris caught in the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Fit is too tight or restrictive.

Ensure the correct size was selected. The coverall should allow for movement, especially with the action back feature. Check the size chart against measurements.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent protection against multiple heat and flame hazards.
  • Integrated anti-static properties for electrical safety.
  • High-visibility features for enhanced safety in poor lighting.
  • Durable construction suitable for tough industrial environments.
  • Comfortable fit with features designed for mobility.

Cons

  • Specialized design may be overkill for general work tasks.
  • Red color might not be suitable for all workplace uniform policies.
  • Requires specific care to maintain flame-retardant properties.
  • Limited breathability due to the robust protective fabric.
  • May be heavier than standard workwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This coverall is designed for immediate wear. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and comfort. Check that all zips and fastenings are securely closed before commencing work.

Compatibility:

While designed for specific high-risk environments, the Portwest FR50 is compatible with other standard personal protective equipment (PPE) such as safety boots, gloves, and eye protection. Always ensure that any additional PPE does not compromise the integrity or function of the coverall.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the protective properties of the flame-retardant and anti-static fabric, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at a maximum of 60°C (140°F) with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the fabric's performance.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry away from direct heat sources.
  3. Ironing: Iron on a low heat setting if necessary. Do not starch.
  4. Dry Cleaning: Can be dry-cleaned using PCE solvent.
  5. Storage: Store in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and chemicals.
