THE RIGHT PPE FOR THE JOB Dräger X-plore® 8000 Low limit values classify even more workplaces as environments that compromise the quality of air. The Dräger X-plore® 8000 PAPR offers a new level of intuitive handling combined with intelligent electronics. The result? The highly reliable personal protection you need to focus on the task at hand. At very high concentrations, independent air supplying breathing protection should be used. This can be a self-contained breathing apparatus or a compressed airline system which can be chosen either as belt unit or as Self- Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA). Dräger X-plore® 9000 and PAS X-plore® The new Dräger X-plore® 9000 series is designed for light duty industrial applications and provides comfortable and reliable respiratory protection. Thanks to such features as the patented safe-flow reducer and autotest function, wearers can enjoy more operating convenience, safety, and flexibility. Dräger PAS® Lite For use in industrial applications where a simple, robust, and easy-to-use breathing apparatus is required, the Dräger PAS® Lite combines reliability with comfort and performance. Splash-tight suits, e.g. Dräger SPC 4X00 These suits are used when a person’s skin has to be protected from the harmful effects of carcinogenic liquids. If there is a risk that the entire body may come into contact with solid or liquid chemicals, complete coveralls are the only way to ensure full protection. Gas-tight suits, e.g. Dräger CPS 5800 or CPS 6800 A wide range from disposable to reusable gas-tight chemical protection suits are available for industrial applications and operations that involve gaseous, liquid or solid substances. If you are looking for protection against cryogenic substances like 1,3-butadiene, ethylene oxide and vinyl chloride, then the Dräger CPS 6800 chemical protective suit is the right choice. Caution: The explosive nature of substance like 1,3-butadien, acrylonitrile, ethylene oxide, and vinyl chloride means special attention must be paid to the anti-static properties of the PPE, especially of the suit, gloves and shoes. In explosion-prone areas, the protective equipment must be adequately earthed to ensure it does not act as an indirect source of ignition. When removing any clothing that may be contaminated, care must be taken to avoid contact with the harmful substance. 30 | 33
