SIP Protection - Catalogue 2017 (English)

EN 381-11: Protective upper part of the body
Protection against hand-held chainsaws
Standard
The 2 images depict the design of a
chainsaw protective jacket according to
standard EN 381-11.
In contrast to chainsaw trousers where 3
designs are possible there is just 1 design
for the conception of chainsaw jackets in
order to be conform to the standard.
On both front and backside of the jacket
the standard defines a minimum surface
of protective inlay on the shoulders, arms
and chest. On the front side of the sleeves
the protective inlay must cover a minimum
of 80% of the total surface and the nonprotected
surface from the end of the
sleeves mustn’t exceed 70 mm.
Standard + belly protection
The 2 images despict the design of a
chainsaw protective jacket according to
standard EN 381-11 + additional full front
protection.
Chainsaw jackets are more and more
used for working on servicing platforms,
occasional use of the chainsaw or in
exceptional and dangerous working
circumstances. As a consequence, 3
jackets (1SI7, 1SIA and 1SIS) in this
catalogue have additional belly protection
on top of the standard in order to provide
even more safety. Basically, conception is
the same as a normal standard jacket but
there is added protection of the abdomen
(see picture).
