The Dräger X-plore
8000
The hood serves as a facepiece for respiratory
protective devices. It makes the breathing air available that is fed through the
respiratory protective device.
The breathing air is supplied through a breathing hose on the back of the hood.
The breathing air flows over the back of the user's head to the front. The
resulting overpressure prevents polluted ambient air from penetrating.
3.3
Intended use
The hoods are designed as facepieces for use with the Dräger X-plore® 8000
powered air purifying respirator and the Dräger® X-plore 9300 air line breathing
apparatus.
3.4
Limitations on use
The protective effect can be impaired by the following factors:
–
High wind velocities and strong crosswind
–
Earpieces or beards under the face cuff
3.5
Approvals
The hoods conform to the EU regulations on personal protective equipment
(EU) 2016/425. For information on the corresponding system approvals please
