Principles of operation

3.1 Feature description
The chemical protective suit is certified as Category III personal protective
clothing.
The breathing air supply requires a respiratory filter, a powered air purifying
respirator, air line breathing apparatus or self-contained breathing apparatus
and a full face mask. The chemical protective suit is equipped with a face cuff.
The full face mask can be worn under or over the face cuff. Dräger recommends
wearing the full face mask under the face cuff. Powered air purifying respirators,
air line breathing apparatus and self-contained breathing apparatus are worn
over the chemical protective suit.
Gloves and socks are permanently attached to the chemical protective suit.
Additional overgloves can be worn to improve the resistance to chemical and
mechanical erosion. The socks by themselves do not provide adequate
protection from mechanical stresses. The user must therefore also wear
suitable protective boots that are approved in accordance with EN ISO 20345.
The zip fastener is located horizontally on the back of the suit and is covered by
a covering flap.
The inside of the chemical protective suit has an antistatic treatment and
provides protection against electrostatic charges.
3.2 Intended use
The chemical protective suit protects the wearer against organic and inorganic
fluids, radioactive contamination and against viruses and bacteria. It also
protects against incorporation of radioactive particles.
The chemical protective suit can also be used if sensitive products must be
protected against contamination caused by humans.

Consequences of non-observance
Indicates a potentially hazardous situa-
tion. If not avoided, it could result in
death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situa-
tion. If not avoided, it could result in
physical injury. It may also be used to
alert against unsafe practices.
The chemical protective suit is intended for limited use. It may only be used a
second time if it is not damaged or contaminated. The use must also be
acceptable from a hygienic standpoint. The chemical protective suit cannot be
cleaned and sterilised again.
3.3 Limitations on use
The chemical protective suit should not be exposed to substances in higher
concentrations than tested. Substances with higher concentrations require
other protective clothing.
Exposure to hazardous biological substances that do not comply with the
tightness of the suit can cause biocontamination of the wearer. For information
on mechanical and chemical resistance, as well as temperature resistance (see
"General", page 7).
Avoid heat and naked flame. The chemical protective suit is not suitable for fire
fighting. For permissible application temperatures (see "General", page 7). The
chemical protective suit does not offer any protection against radiation from
radioactive particles or against radiation damage.

The chemical protective suit is approved in accordance with:
– EN 14605:2005+A1:2009 (Type 3B and 4B protective clothing)
– EN ISO 13982-1:2004+A1:2010 (Type 5B protective clothing)
– EN 13034:2005+A1:2009 (Type 6B protective clothing)
– EN 1073-2:2002 (Protective clothing against radioactive contamination,
