Gas-tight chemical protection suit
November 1st 2010 Working closely with
customers, Draeger has
developed the CPS 7900,
a gas-tight chemical protection suit.
Even when dragged along the ground
or any other abrasive surface in a
rescue situation, this reusable suit
maintains wearer protection from
hazardous substances.
Should an outer layer be damaged,
the wearer is kept safe by a new tearproof,
five-layer, laminated D-Mex
material which protects against
chemical effects, bursts of flames and
toxic and cryogenic substances.
For additional safety the wearer's
arms remain in the suit sleeves at all
times, ready to respond through the
inclusion of a pressure gauge holder
in the field of view. Freedom of
movement and full awareness of the
environment are aided by the
comfortable, ergonomic design and
an almost natural field of vision
through the anti-fogging visor.
The D-Mex material is said to be
safe to use in potentially explosive
environments and also offers
protection from contact with
extreme temperatures as low as -
80°C. More articles from Draeger Safety UK Limited: |
