Select PPE through the risk assessment, not from the hazard class alone.

Under “Accessories” at the bottom of the page. Looking for complementary equipment? Consider the line (EFLAC) with flags over 100 m for marking from a safe area, the removable reflectors (EPTR) for marking a stopped vehicle, and the road safety kit (TR16) to complete vehicle supplies.These suggestions are not a response equipment list for a leak.
