PROGARM 7480 ARC COVERALL - Class 1, 9.5 CAL/CM²

ProGARM 7480 Arc Coverall, Class 1, 9.5 cal/cm²

The ProGARM 7480 is a premium hi-visibility arc flash coverall for personnel working on or near energised electrical equipment. It is CE certified for arc protection to Class 1 with an EBT50 of 9.5 cal/cm², and it uses ProGARM’s lighter weight VXS+ inherent fabric, so the flame resistant and arc protective properties are built into the fibre and last the lifetime of the garment rather than washing out.

Fabric and Protection

The VXS+ HVY250W fabric is a 250 g/m² woven inherent hi-visibility material. In practice that means breathable, soft-to-wear protection that stays colourfast, with less than 3% washing shrinkage, and instant extinguishing behaviour against flame and arc flash hazards. The coverall also carries 5 cm FR reflective tape, double stitched for longer life, and ProGARM’s SafetyICON system on the arm, a visual icon strip showing the EN norms the garment meets.

FAQs

What does Class 1, 9.5 cal/cm² mean on this coverall?

Class 1 is the arc protection class under the box test method, and 9.5 cal/cm² is the EBT50 value from open arc testing. Match your PPE to the incident energy shown on your arc flash labels or study.

Will the arc protection wash out over time?

No. The VXS+ fabric is inherent, so the protective properties are part of the fibre itself and last the garment’s lifetime. Follow the care label: no bleach, no boiling, detergents only, and store clean and dry away from strong sunlight.
