After use

4.5.1 Precleaning of the chemical protective suit
WARNING
!
Never touch contaminated parts unless wearing
protective clothing. Avoid contaminating the clean
interior of the suit.
Failure to meet the required safety precautions may
result in death or serious injury.
1. Leave the contaminated area and have the chemical
protective suit precleaned by an assistant. The assistant
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 be sufficient
to wash away most chemicals (acids, alkalis, organic and
inorganic substances).
CAUTION
!
If precleaning is not possible on site, remove and close
the suit immediately to prevent chemicals from
entering the suit.
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
waster disposal regulations.
4. If necessary, carry out decontamination in several steps.
Further information on decontamination can be obtained
from Dräger.
