Key Aspects of Aluminized Fire Proximity Suits: :

Uses:

Outer Layer:
Typically made of aluminized glass fiber fabric, this layer reflects radiant heat (up to 95%) and provides a barrier against flames.

Heat and Flame Resistance:
The suit materials, including the outer layer and inner lining, are inherently flame-resistant and designed to withstand high temperatures, preventing ignition and self-extinguishing.

Multiple Layers:
Proximity suits often feature multiple layers, including a vapor barrier to protect against steam and vapor, and a thermal barrier (like fiberglass insulation) for ambient heat protection.

Components:
A complete suit typically includes a hood with a visor, a jacket, trousers, gloves, and boots, all designed to withstand high temperatures and offer protection from hazards.

Temperature Rating:
Aluminized fire proximity suits can withstand short-duration ambient heat up to 800°F (430°C) and radiant heat up to 3000°F (1650°C).
