This
kit includes an extremely durable CPF3
high-performance chemical suit which is ideal for domestic
preparedness applications. The CPF3 is one of the best
suits available & features
taped seams, an attached respirator fit hood, booties & elastic
wrists. As some emergency situations may require long-term
outdoor/field use, this kit also includes a military (OD
Green, unissued surplus) chemical suit at no extra charge.
This exact design was used in the Persian Gulf by the U.S.
military and is intended for use in extreme environments.
The military chem. suit is an extremely durable, multi-layer
design, made with a rip-stop nylon outer shell, a carbon
core for absorption of contaminates & a breathable
inner layer. The military chem suit & CPF3 are both
designed to be worn over regular ‘street clothes’,
including shoes (the military suit does not cover the shoe) & are
easily donned in the event of an emergency.
Foot
protection is provided by the SF Chem-Bio
overshoes which
meet ALL
military specifications for combat use.
The Chem-Bio overshoes have passed the strict military
requirements for puncture resistance, durability, traction & protection
against chemical & biological warfare agents. Hand
protection is provided by a dual layer system: A
military spec. butyl glove outer barrier (considered
to be sufficient NBC protection without an inner glove)
provides excellent
chemical & puncture resistance. Plus, a Silver
Shied glove is utilized as an inner layer. Silver
Shield gloves are ultra-thin, only 4 mil thick, & are the most (chemical)
permeation resistant gloves available today. This combination
of inner & outer gloves provides the best possible
hand protection & is recommended for use when working
in extremely hazardous environments.
You have
the equipment, but when is it time to ‘gear
up’? This kit includes a full booklet (25 sheets)
of M8 Chemical Agent Detection
Paper. M8 paper is used
to detect liquid chemical agents, mists, etc. The paper
has an unlimited shelf-life when kept dry & detects
nearly all forms of chemical agents by changing colors
when agents are detected. M8 detection paper can distinguish
between various agents by specific color changes, therefore
indicating what protective measures should be taken.
(ie. evacuation, donning protective wear, using specific
antidotes,
etc.)
