PERIODIC CHECKING OF PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT GENERAL REMARKS
Carrying out regular periodic checks (at intervals predetermined by the
manufacturer) is vital for ensuring the equipment's efficiency and durability and the
user's safety. The performance of regular periodic inspections is required by the
ASTM F2116 – 01 (2015) standard and it is therefore mandatory only for some
device categories, whose instructions for use will expressly indicate such
obligation. Carrying out periodical controls doesn't relieve the user from the
obligation to perform the controls before and after each use, nor to require an
extraordinary periodic check, in case an outstanding event occurs (ex, a fall, even
from a low height, a change of user etc.), or in case of doubts about the correct
functioning of the device. Attention! Before first use, the owner/user of PPE must

unknown;at least every 12 months, with normal/standard use;in the presence of
anomalies found during the inspections before and after each use; except for
exceptions, whenever there is a change of user;filling the periodic inspection sheet

kits or systems of PPE.Attention! Provided that the minimum mandatory frequency
for the periodic inspection is 12 months, it can be increased (i.e. 3 months, 6
months etc.) according to the national regulations in force or the frequency,
intensity and method of use (i.e. heavy use, use in a marine environment,
corrosive atmospheres etc.).
