Foreword

This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1: Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents".

Drafting.

This document replaces GB/T 23463-2009 "Protective Clothing - Microwave Radiation Protective Clothing". Compared with GB/T 23463-2009, except for the following.

Aside from structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows.

---The scope has been changed (see Chapter 1, Chapter 1 of the 2009 edition);

---Added terms and definitions for "microwave," "dynamic range," and "human model" (see 3.1~3.3);

---The terms and definitions of "occupational exposure" and "exposure limits" have been removed (see 3.1 and 3.2 in the 2009 edition);

---The protection levels have been changed (see Table 1, Table 2 in the 2009 edition);

---The testing method for shielding effectiveness has been changed (see 5.1, 5.1 and 5.13 in the 2009 version);

---The requirements for marking have been changed (see Chapter 6, Chapter 6 of the 2009 edition);

---Rename Appendix A to "Shielding Effectiveness Test Methods" (see Appendix A, Appendix A of the 2009 edition);

---A normative appendix, "General Requirements for Human Models," has been added (see Appendix B).

3 Terms and Definitions

The terms and definitions defined in GB/T 12903 and the following terms and definitions apply to this document.

microwave

Electromagnetic waves with frequencies in the range of 300MHz to 300GHz.

Note. Microwaves include pulsed microwaves and continuous microwaves.

dynamic range

The amplitude range of the receiving system operating in the linear region is equal to the difference between the maximum and minimum signal values.

human model phantommanmodel Made of low-loss, low-dielectric-constant electromagnetic wave-transparent material, this complete plastic dummy includes a head, torso, and limbs.

Under the same electromagnetic field environment and detection location, the electric field strength E0 at a certain point on the human model when not wearing microwave radiation protective clothing is different from that when wearing it.

The electric field strength E1 after wearing microwave radiation protective clothing is compared and expressed logarithmically.

SE=20lg

In the formula.

SE --- Shielding effectiveness, measured in decibels (dB);

E0 --- Electric field strength when not wearing microwave radiation protective clothing, measured in volts per meter (V/m);

E1 --- Electric field strength when wearing microwave radiation protective clothing, measured in volts per meter (V/m).

4 Technical Requirements

4.1 General Requirements

4.1.1 Microwave radiation protective clothing shall be sized according to the provisions of GB.20097.If the size is outside the range, the size shall be adjusted according to the difference.

4.1.2 Microwave radiation protective clothing should not have exposed metal parts, such as metal buttons, zippers, metal signs, etc.

Note. This is to prevent metal parts from induced high potential differences under strong electric fields, which could lead to discharge.

4.1.3 Microwave radiation protective clothing should be individually sealed and contain antioxidants.

Note. To prevent the metal layer of metallic textiles from oxidizing during storage and transportation.

4.2 Structure and Appearance

4.2.1 Microwave radiation protective clothing should be simple and practical in style, and the following styles should be adopted according to specific usage requirements.

a) Full-body shielding protective suit;

Note 1.Full-body shielding protective suits can be equipped with head coverings, visual goggles, gloves, and shoes and socks.

b) Split-type shielding protective suit;

Note 2.The split shielding protection includes the top and pants.

c) Partial shielding protective clothing.

Note 3.Partial shielding protective clothing generally includes styles such as gowns, vests, and aprons.

4.2.2 Full-body protective suits and two-piece protective suits should minimize openings, seams, and gaps/holes. Two-piece protective suits the overlap between the hem of the top and the waistband of the trousers should be greater than 20cm.

4.3 Technical Requirements

4.3.1 The protective performance of microwave radiation protective clothing is divided into 5 levels according to shielding effectiveness, and should meet the requirements of Table 1.

Table 1.Protection performance levels of microwave radiation protective clothing

Protection rating and shielding effectiveness (SE/dB) I 6<=SE
