For emergencies or for routine work such as maintenance, repairs and tank cleaning – appropriate protection is always required.

With its external self-contained breathing apparatus the gas-tight Dräger CPS 5800 (type 1b) protects against a multitude of substances. The suit meets the highest international requirements of industry, fire departments and shipping. Therefore it fulfills EN 943-1+2:2002, and the SOLAS requirements, so that it is approved for the use on board ships. As a limited-use protective suit its resistance against mechanical influences and flames is not as high as the one from the reusable Dräger CPS 7800.

With the proven Dräger design, this suit is very comfortable to wear and is equipped with the flexible Dräger face cuff. The suit is made of Zytron^® 500, a very soft laminate material. All seams are welded in- and outside. This high quality material and the manufacturing techniques provide a long service life of up to ten years.
