Description

AVEC-CHEM CM-6 Gas mask – designed to ensure optimal vision and comfort, ensures protection of the respiratory tract and face against toxic NRBC agents (vapours, gases, aerosols, contaminated dust) in conjunction with either filter cartridges, or a motorized respirator.

Mask standardized CE EN 136: 1998, class III & EN 148-1 (thread), made of bromobutyl rubber (vulcanized polyIsobutylene) – maximum impermeability to TIC (Toxic Industrial Chemicals) and CWA (Chemical Warfare Agents), excellent thermal resistance and mechanics. Internal half mask in hypoallergenic silicone, perfectly waterproof – no fogging, even in the event of sustained effort – significant reduction in the presence of CO2 in the mask & low mechanical resistance during inspiration/expiration (physiological constraints of the wearer greatly reduced ).

Two lateral threads (40×1/7 “ – 40mm NATO standard) allow the addition of two filter cartridges simultaneously – depending on the saturation of the atmosphere with toxic agent – or of one cartridge alone (the second thread being then locked and waterproof). The hydration system – compatible with CAMELBACK type A & M adapters – is immediately operational.

The communication system allows 95% of voice exchanges to be understood – up to a distance of 2 to 3 meters, without sound distortion. Attachment of the mask by a head harness (rubber & textile) – intended for wearing a ballistic helmet, integration of glasses (not supplied) in the compartment provided in the mask if necessary.
