This high-performance chemical barrier fabric is suited for industrial, HazMat, and domestic preparedness applications. These coveralls are lime yellow.
Certified compliant to the 2012 edition of NFPA 1994, Class 2 Standard on Protective Ensembles for First Responders to CBRN Terrorism Incidents by an independent third party certification organization. Class 2 garments are designed for situations where there is an immediate danger to life and health (IDLH) and must be worn with a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). This is the highest level of protection under the NFPA 1994 standard.
Encapsulated Level A garment design is our highest level of protection from liquid splash and vapor/gas exposures for both the wearer and respiratory equipment. Taped seams provide strong chemical resistance against heavy liquid splashes. A sewn seam is covered with a strip of compatible chemical-resistant material through heat sealing. Expanded faceshield provides wide 220 degree viewing angle. Faceshield is triple-layered (PVC 40 mil/Teflon® 5 mil/PVC 20 mil). Front entry design allows wearer to partially don garment (maintain standby position) without assistance. Expanded back accommodates self-contained air breathing apparatus (SCBA). Vapor tight zipper is extra long to increase garment opening and aid donning and doffing. Storm flap covers zipper, which can be secured by the wearer with rugged hook and loop material to prevent intrusion at zipper. Attached internal gloves are composed of five layer laminate film for a broad range of chemical protection. Neoprene exterior gloves provide mechanical and physical durability to help protect inner glove. Gloves are attached with vapor tight ring and clamp system and are replaceable. Integrated socks are composed of the same garment material. Attached flaps are designed to cover boot tops to help reduce potential for liquid intrusion.
Two exhaust valves release higher pressure inside encapsulating garments while simultaneously helping to prevent inward leakage of external vapors or particles into the garment. One-way valves are positive pressure and open on demand. Valves include splash covers made of barrier material to help prevent liquid intrusion. Valves are located on left back of head and right lower back. Internal adjustable waist belt system allows for support and improved fit. Additional barrier material is sewn at knees and over taped for added abrasion resistance when kneeling or crawling. Each suit has a unique serial number and is fully tested at time of manufacture including positive air pressure integrity testing per ASTM F1052.
Certifications: Thickness meets ASTM D1777. Certified compliant to the 2012 edition of NFPA 1994. Positive air pressure integrity meets ASTM F1052. Made in the USA, North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) compliant and Trade Agreement Act (TAA) compliant.
