| The ALFA suit should be worn together with a fire
protection suit, serving as a thermal suit (see right picture).
The combination gives higher safety margins and shorter response
time. The ALFA suit withstands the extremely low temperatures from
the liquid and aerosol phases of the condensed gases without any
extra coverage. All breathing equipment is kept inside the suit,
which |
Protects it from contamination and makes the decontamination
after use rapid and simple. The suit has a built in approved fire
helmet, the gloves are exchangeable without any tools and the socks
are welded to the suit. A pass-through with fresh air supply to
keep the visor clean and a possibility to connect the air breathing
equipment to outside sources. |

ALFA suit and has the same, unique, ability to withstand the extremely

gases without any extra coverage. The suit is designed to be worn
outside the fire protection suit and the breathing apparatus.
The chemical protection gloves are connected to the suit, but
cam easily be replaced without any tools. Velcro tightening around
the wrists and ankles. The hood with helmet is separate from the
suit for wearer's convenience when it is not needed
