Description

AVEC-CHEM OM-2020 gas mask, with a panoramic polycarbonate visor – 90% field of view and minimal distortion, even in high light – designed for use in hostile areas, and for use with weapons, optics or NVG, provides protection of the respiratory tract and face against toxic CBRN agents (vapours, gases, aerosols, contaminated dust) in conjunction with either filter cartridges or a motorized respirator.

CE standardized mask 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 then being locked and waterproof). The hydration system – which allows you to drink in contaminated areas – 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) – designed for wearing a ballistic helmet, integration of glasses (not supplied) in the compartment provided in the mask if necessary, evacuation of sweat via the chamber expiration (allows long wear).

LIFESPAN: 20 YEARS / MANUFACTURER’S GUARANTEE: 05 YEARS

LOW RESISTANCE TO INSPIRATION/EXPIRATION – max. 30 Pa (30l/m)

RESISTANCE TO PENETRATION OF CONTAMINATION AGENTS: 48H
