If you’re still a bit confused about the definition of FR rainwear, there’s a simple way to look at. The flurry of standard-setting activity over the past two decades has created three distinct categories of FR rainwear. They are: • Low-level FR rainwear that passes the vertical flame test in ASTM D6413 (showing no visible flame or glow after 2 seconds and a char length of 6 inches or less after the ignition source is removed). This type of rainwear provides limited flame resistance. • Arc-resistant rainwear that meets the performance requirements of ASTM F1891. Rainwear that complies with F1891 will have an arc rating and a heatattenuation factor, which help to quantify the level of protection that the rainwear will provide against the intense heat and energy generated by an arc-flash explosion. • Flash-fire-resistant rainwear that meets the performance requirements of ASTM F2733. Rainwear that complies with F2733 must pass a laboratory test in which the garment is exposed to a three-second hydrocarbon flash fire. The garment must not melt, drip, ignite or shrink, and cannot allow more than a 40.
