MCU 2/P and 2A/P Masks • Current standard issue for MSC • Unimolded silicone rubber face piece • Single flexible lens • Single filter (either side) • Two VoiceEmitters • Drinking tube • Nose cup for reduced fogging
MCU 2/P and 2A/P Masks • If neither 2/P or 2A/P fits crewmen, M40 may work better • Difference between 2/P and 2A/P: • 2A/P can use MicEmitter inside the mask • 2 Prongs in Nose Cup hook into Mic insert
CBRD Mask • Must be donned in 9 seconds • Pre-fit masks to make donning faster • Pre-adjust forehead and temple straps to proper length • All that needs to be adjusted when donning is jaw straps
CBRD Masks • At MOPP 2, mask is in carrier, worn on person • At MOPP 3, canister should be attached to mask • Canister should not be removed from packaging until this point • Each canister can only be used for 8 hours in a chemical environment • Only 15 minutes use with Blood Agents
CBRD Masks • At MOPP 4, masks are donned • STOP BREATHING and CLOSE EYES • Pull spider-strap over head • TIGHTEN jaw straps • Press on exhalation valve and blow out to PURGE the mask • Cover inlet on canister and suck in for a NEGATIVE PRESSURE TEST to ensure there are no leaks, lens should deform inward slightly
JSLIST/ACPG Suit • Protects against CBR for 24 hours in contaminated environment • Package should NOT be opened until sufficient MOPP level reached
JSLIST/ACPG Suits • Can be worn for 45 days in a normal working environment • Only serviceable for 120 days after package is opened • Can be washed 6 times • Once exposed to CBR, suit must be removed from service and incinerated • Suit cannot be decontaminated after exposure
JSLIST/ACPG Suit • Gear • Jacket w/ hood • Pants w/ suspenders • Boots • Cotton Liner Gloves • Rubber Outer Gloves
JSLIST/ACPG Suits • Notes on Suits: • ACPG boots are worn over regular footwear • May not fit over all steel-toed boots • Suspenders cross on chest to prevent them from slipping off shoulders • Care must be taken to ensure no leaks along zippers/velcro, especially around the mask
