Not every job needs APC 2
Many data centre tasks sit at lower incident energies. When a task does need APC 2, you need to know the protection level of the garment being worn. Vailos APC 2 trousers and jackets are rated ATPV 17 cal/cm² in a single layer, so higher protection does not automatically mean adding layers. ELIM is listed on each product page.
Layer up only when the job needs more
Data centre operations often need layered protection, building arc flash performance up to 40 cal/cm² while keeping comfort and mobility. Layering lets teams match protection to the task without over-protecting or adding thermal burden.
Hot sites and cold sites
Facilities in Southern Europe need lighter, breathable garments to manage heat stress. Operations in the Nordics, including Finland, Sweden and Norway, need insulated layers that perform in freezing and sub-zero conditions. The Vailos range covers both ends of that scale.
Protection that works as everyday workwear
The LANGEN and AURICH holster-pocket trousers combine arc flash protection (APC 1) with practical storage for tools and equipment. The range also includes an arc flash softshell jacket (ATPV 22 / ELIM 16), long sleeve T-shirts (ATPV 11 / ELIM 8.5) and a hi-vis polo (ATPV 7.1 / ELIM 5).
Start with the incident energy
The right garment starts with the incident energy for each task. Vailos also runs arc flash risk assessment, PPE specification and awareness sessions, and has delivered arc flash awareness workshops at one of London's largest data centres. See how advisory works, or request a quote for your teams.
