DESCRIPTION
The DTAPS® Level B coverall system is now certified to NFPA 1994 by Safety Equipment Institute (SEI). The DTAPS® Level B system is the first in the industry to be certified as an NFPA 1994, Class 2 ensemble. NFPA 1994, Standard on Protective Ensembles for Chemical/Biological Terrorism Incidents, will help fire and emergency services personnel select the proper personal protective equipment to use when conducting assessment, extrication, rescue, triage, and treatment operations at domestic terrorism incidents involving dual-use industrial chemicals, chemical terrorism agents, or biological terrorism agents. A Class 2 ensemble protects responders at C/B terrorism incidents where it is necessary to provide sufficient vapor protection for the intended operation, where direct contact with liquid droplets is probable, and where victims are symptomatic but not able to walk.
The Level B coverall chemical warfare agent protective system was specifically designed for use in Domestic Preparedness, WMD, and CBRN environments. The system provides protection against chemical and biological warfare agents, as well as industrial chemicals. The Level B coverall suit is constructed of DuPont's Tychem® LV (low visibility) fabric, which is a multi-layer composite chemical barrier laminated to a strong non-woven substrate. It features a neck dam to minimize vapor intrusion and an air inlet to slightly over-pressurize the coverall. The coverall also has a liquid-resistant zipper with double splash flaps, integral booties with splash guards, and attached 24 mil neoprene/butyl outer gloves with Silver Shield®/4H® inner gloves.
• Certified to NFPA 1994, Class 2, including the Overall Ensemble Inward Leakage (SF6 test) protocol and the Liquid-Tight Integrity (ASTM F 1359 test) protocol
• Tychem® LV material provides over 12 hours of protection against the chemical warfare agents GA, GB, GD, HD, L, and VX
• Tychem® LV material is protective against the 21 ASTM F 1001 chemicals plus over 200 additional chemicals
The DTAPS® Level B breathing system is an integrated Interspiro 60-minute open-circuit system CBRN approved by NIOSH. The chemical protective boots meet or exceed all footwear requirements of NFPA 1991 and NFPA 1994. The system includes a reusable chemical splash hood that is custom fitted to the face mask.
