The environmental impact must be determined prior to use, since the suitability
of the chemical protective suit must be determined before its use. The chemical
protective suit must only be used for suitable purposes.
4.2 Preparations for use
1. Test the chemical protective suit. Do not use a damaged chemical protective
suit.
Get a second person to assist you with donning the suit.
2. Fasten the full face mask.
3. Step into the trouser legs of the suit (take shoes off first).
4. Put on the protective boots and pull the cuffs down over the boots.
5. Put on cotton gloves if necessary.
6. Put the hood on and pull the face cuff over the full face mask.
Make sure the face cuff is pulled tightly over the full face mask and that
there are no loose folds.

8. Put on the powered air purifying respirator, air line breathing apparatus or
self-contained breathing apparatus.
9. Connect a respiratory filter, a powered air purifying respirator, air line
breathing apparatus or self-contained breathing apparatus to the full face
mask.

4.3 Observe during use
CAUTION
A build-up of heat in the chemical protective suit can cause a circulatory
collapse.
► Wear a Dräger comfort vest underneath if necessary.
– Observe the period of use, operation limits and specific national regulations.
The maximum deployment duration also depends on the type of breathing
apparatus used.
– In case of emergency, leave the contaminated area immediately. Open zip
in clean area only.
4.4 After use
4.4.1 Precleaning the chemical protective suit
WARNING
Risk of contamination!
► Only touch contaminated parts with protective clothing.
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,
organic and inorganic substances). Avoid spreading chemicals.
2. In the event of contamination with hazardous substances, dispose of the
waste water in line with the relevant waste water disposal regulations.
