ArcJoule™ FR Jacket

Premium Multi-Hazard Outerwear Protection: Electric Arc, Flash Fire, Chemical Splash, High Visibility, Breathable, Waterproof, Windproof

NASCO ArcWear ArcJoule

Heat barriers are one of the most effective ways to reduce the hazards of thermal energy heat. Heat barriers reflect or absorb heat, reducing the amount of heat that reaches workers. ArcJoule is designed to eliminate or minimise serious injury caused by thermal energy heat transferring through PPE materials. ArcJoule not only acts as an effective thermal energy heat barrier but also excels at combining recreational comfort with industrial hazard protection. Offering waterproof, windproof and breathable functionality, ArcJoule keeps workers safe with high visibility worker conspicuity and protection from the thermal hazards associated with an electric arc flash and hydrocarbon flash fires. ArcJoule Protective Outerwear provides protection as tough as the job at hand and is designed for all-day comfort in demanding work environments.

APPLICATION: Electric Utilities, Electrical Switching, Electrical Maintenance, Storm Restoration, Meter Servicing, Telecommunications, CATV.
