Frequently Asked Questions
What does S7S safety rating mean?
The S7S safety rating indicates the highest level of safety footwear protection under EN ISO 20345:2011. This rating includes toe protection tested to 200 Joules, antistatic properties, energy absorbing heel, water resistant upper, and additional specialized protections. The AS322C Tarka exceeds standard S3 requirements by including heat resistance (HRO), fuel oil resistance (FO), and electrostatic dissipative (ESD) properties, making it suitable for the most demanding industrial environments.
What is ESD protection and why is it important?
ESD (Electrostatic Dissipative) protection prevents the build-up of static electricity that could damage sensitive electronic components or create spark hazards in certain environments. This feature is essential for workers in electronics manufacturing, clean rooms, and environments with flammable materials. The ESD properties ensure static charge is safely dissipated through the footwear, protecting both workers and sensitive equipment.
What does HRO heat resistance protect against?
HRO (Heat Resistant Outsole) certification means the outsole can withstand contact with surfaces up to 300°C (572°F) without degrading or melting. This protection is crucial for workers in foundries, welding operations, metalworking, and any environment where contact with hot surfaces is possible. The HRO rating ensures the sole maintains its integrity and protective properties even in extreme heat conditions.
Is the Amblers AS322C Tarka suitable for electrical work?
The AS322C Tarka features antistatic properties and ESD protection, which prevent static build-up and safely dissipate electrical charges. However, this shoe is not rated for primary electrical hazard protection like EH-rated footwear. The antistatic and ESD features make it ideal
