Tychem® 2000 SFR provides chemical and secondary flame protection in a lightweight garment. Tychem® 2000 SFR garments are intended to be worn over primary flame resistant garments. In the event that a flash fire occurs, they won't ignite and won't contribute to additional burn injury if appropriate flame-resistant personal protective equipment, such as DuPont™ Nomex®, is worn beneath. Tychem® 2000 SFR represents a new generation of secondary flame-resistant chemical garment technology. Unlike traditional secondary flame resistant chemical garments that have been available for years, new Tychem® 2000 SFR garments were specially designed to meet dual hazard needs of a protective chemical suit with secondary flame resistance. This unique combination of performance permits Tychem® 2000 SFR garments to be worn over primary flame resistant (FR) garments like Nomex® when chemical splash and flash fire hazards exist. The fabric used in Tychem® 2000 SFR garments is a unique technology. It doesn’t char like traditional secondary flame resistant technologies. Instead, it was designed to shrink away from flame - without burning. We engineered Tychem® 2000 SFR garments to perform well in flame engulfment scenarios. Extensive ASTM F1930 (instrumented thermal manikin) testing was conducted during the development of Tychem® 2000 SFR garments to aid in garment design and component selection. The final Tychem® 2000 SFR garment continues to demonstrate excellent performance when exposed to a fire engulfment. In fact, when tested side-by-side, Tychem® 2000 SFR garments yield a much lower predicted body burn level and much less after flame than competing garments, including Lakeland Pyrolon® CRFR. The performance of the actual garment when exposed to a fire engulfment should be the key deciding point for selection of a secondary FR garment. Using ASTM F1930 testing for 4 seconds of flame exposure, when worn over Nomex® IIIA coverall 6oz/yd2, Tychem® 2000 SFR shows 9.3% body burn, versus Lakeland Pyrolon® which shows 28.1% body burn.
