15. Close the cover strap on the fastener system.
16. Pull the suit material up in front of the body, and down
behind the body. This is ensured when the breathing
apparatus is fitted.
17. Put on the breathing apparatus.
18. Check the correct functioning of the breathing apparatus.
19. If the air supply unit is being used, connect the air supply
to the air supply unit.
20. Fit the overgloves if required:
a. Pull the Tricotril overglove over the arm ring and
secure it with the corresponding rubber ring.
21. Put on the safety helmet where applicable.
In chemical protective suits with face cuffs the leak test
as described in steps 11 to 13 should not be regarded as a
reliable indication that the suit will fulfil its function in the
same way when worn by somebody else. For maximum
protection Dräger recommends checking the fit
individually for each wearer.

Observe during use
CAUTION
Danger to health!
A build-up of heat in the chemical protective suit can cause a
circulatory collapse.
► If necessary, wear a cooling vest underneath or use a
suitable ventilation system.
When working at low temperatures, Dräger recommends
using FKM/IIR gloves or, alternatively, the laminate/IIR
combination, as they offer greater cold flexibility.
– Never start a mission alone!
– Observe the period of use, operation limits and specific
national regulations. The maximum usage period may also
depend on the respiratory protective device used and on
the operating conditions.
– When working with cryogenic media, use suitable
overgloves (e.g., Cryo-LNG™ from Tempshield, Inc.) and
1)
underclothing.
– In case of emergency, leave the contaminated area
immediately. Open fastener system in clean area only.

Instructions for use
|
Dräger CPS 7800
1. Leave the contaminated area and have the chemical
protective suit precleaned with the aid of a helper. The
helper must also wear protective clothing, and breathing
apparatus where necessary. For precleaning, Dräger
recommends using plenty of water to which a detergent
has been added. This will sufficiently wash away most
chemicals (acids, alkalis, and organic and inorganic
substances).
2. Clean the chemical protective suit thoroughly for a
sufficient time. Avoid spreading chemicals.
3. In the event of contamination with hazardous substances,
dispose of the waste water in line with the relevant waste
water disposal regulations.
4. If necessary, carry out decontamination in several steps.
