DESCRIPTION
FACEPIECE
Two facepieces are available in three sizes.
•
The Ultra Elite Facepiece
•
The Advantage
Only Ultra Elite Hycar Facepieces (model numbers 7-935-
7, 7-935-8, and 7-935-9) have been tested against and
meet CBRN live agent test requirements. Silicone
facepieces are NOT CBRN-approved.
The facepieces have a low-resistance, pressure-demand
exhalation valve designed for easy cleaning. An inhalation
check valve in the inlet housing keeps moisture and
contaminants out of the mask mounted regulator. The
Ultra Elite Facepiece has a speaking diaphragm for clear,
short-range communication.
