Features

• Powered respirator and loose-fitting hood provide cooling air over the head and through the suit, making the wearer more comfortable and better able to focus on tasks.
• The loose-fitting hood design provides high protection without the need for a tight-fitting face piece, which means:
• Many wearers feel less constricted.
• Can be used by wearers with facial hair.
• Training needs are reduced.
• Face-fit testing is not required.
• The clear wide-view visor provides reassurance to casualties and victims by allowing easier, friendly ‘whole-face’ communication.
• The total weight of the PRPS suit with respirator is much less than a gas- tight suit with SCBA, less body contact (belt-mount versus shoulder-harness / tight-fitting face piece), and easier breathing results in a lower physiological load.
• Improved operational duration over gas-tight SCBA suits.
• Up to six times the resource efficiency compared with gas-tight SCBA suits thanks to the lower physiological loading and increased duration.
• Uncontaminated or ‘decontamination-guaranteed’ suits can be re- used following gas-tight re-test and re-certification.
