ARC FLASH SUIT KIT
Your electrical safety requirements drive the decision on the right Arc Flash PPE. The higher the risk assessment, the higher Arc Rating your PPE needs to have. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) uses four Arc Flash PPE Categories to classify ranges of arc flash hazards. These categories correspond with the electrical safety requirements.

ARC FLASH COVERALLS
Arc flash coveralls are most commonly made from flame-resistant (FR) cotton or nylon. Unlike the traditional coveralls worn in industrial settings, arc flash coveralls are designed to protect against electrical burns and flashes that result from contact with energised equipment.
ARC FLASH AND ELECTRICAL GLOVES
Arc flash and flame-resistant gloves are worn when performing maintenance work, de-energizing electrical panels, and when working on hot engines and machinery. Arc flash gloves are flame-resistant, but not all flame-resistant gloves are arc flash-rated.
GAS EXTRACTION SUIT
When a leak occurs the propane or natural gas will tend to accumulate in the hole. If
the accumulated gas ignites, a severe flash fire event is created and the worker must be
“extracted” as quickly as possible. In 2018, The American Gas Association along with industry
experts did a study on Natural Gas Workers and Natural Gas Fires that indicated that the
reaction time and extraction typically takes 6 seconds or less for a worker to get a safe
distance away from the flash fire or to extinguish the fire. However, additional case studies
have shown that more time is needed when heavy equipment is being used or extenuating
extraction circumstances exist.
Oberon Company has designed an 8 and 15 second Gas Extraction Suit which can protect a
worker exposed to this type of flash fire hazard based on instrumented manikin testing
according to ASTM F1930 conducted at Aitex Laboratory in Spain. The Oberon GES™ Series
Gas Extraction Suit is comprised of a balaclava and coverall design, which includes a
harness port in the upper back area. This permits the harness to be worn under the suit
so that only the lanyard is outside of the suit in the exposure area. The suit should be
used in conjunction with a radiant heat shielding SCBA and multilayer heat protective glove.
GAS EXTRACTION GLOVES
Gloves are tested according to ASTM F1930 standards for 8 seconds.
Gas extraction gloves are made from a lightweight and durable Aramid fabric and
are the perfect solution for natural gas workers that need protection from a
potential prolonged natural gas fire.
