The National Guard PAPR Kit was originally developed with, and issued to, the National Guard CERF-P teams and is designed to provide respiratory protection in the event of a WMD incident in a non-IDLH environment. The added protection of positive airflow was deemed necessary for completing tasks required such as search, rescue, recovery and decontamination.
The cooling effect of over four cubic-feet-per-minute of constant, filtered, airflow into the mask provides a high degree of comfort, prevents fogging, greatly reduces pulmonary stress, and helps preserve user strength and mental acuity and also reduces any feelings of claustrophobia.
This PAPR system is lightweight, low-profile, and comfortable to wear. In emergency operations it will help ensure your mission success by extending operational performance, even after extended wear times in humid, heated and highly stressful missions, and provides a significantly higher safety factor (due to positive pressure in the mask), than would be possible, or practical, using gas masks alone.
Due to its military origins, the blower, by design, is air-tight and can be effectively decontaminated of toxic particulates, chemicals, and all known military CBRN agents.
The National Guard PAPR Kit is available with a variety of primary (10-year shelf-life) and economical long-life rechargeable or disposable alkaline battery power options. Universal chargers are available for all rechargeable battery types.
