Flash fires and arc flashes happen fast and can cause severe damage. PIP offers a full line up of FR accessories for plant applications where FR is mandated or part of best practices.
The NFPA has identified the various FR hazardous risk category levels, which range from PPE 1 (which is low risk and requires AR clothing with a minimum arc rating of 4), up to PPE 4 (which is high risk and requires AR clothing with a minimum arc rating of 40). Each level, 1-4, is rated at a certain amount of flame resistance measured in cal/cm2.
