Q - Use in conjunction with personal protective ensembles that provide appropriate levels of protection against dermal
hazards.
R - Some CBRN agents may not present immediate effects from exposure, but can result in delayed impairment, illness,
or death.
T - Direct contact with CBRN agents requires proper handling of the SCBA after each use and between multiple entries
during the same use. Decontamination and disposal procedures must be followed.
U - The respirator should not be used beyond 6 hours after initial exposure to chemical warfare agents to avoid the pos-
sibility of agent permeation.
EBSS - EBSS Activation, or engagement of EBSS in either the donor or receiver mode, changes the SCBA use to
escape-only. Approved service time for either the donor, or receiver is no longer applicable. Additional critical cautions
and limitations apply. Refer to EBSS in the user's instructions
