Chemical protection suits
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.
