  25. Personal Protective Equipment • Describe personal protective clothing equipment options for the following hazards: • R –Radiological NFPA 6.2.3.1(2)

  26. Personal Protective Equipment • Describe personal protective clothing equipment options for the following hazards: • A –Asphyxiating NFPA 6.2.3.1

  27. Personal Protective Equipment • Describe personal protective clothing equipment options for the following hazards: • C –Chemical / Toxic NFPA 6.2.3.1(2)

  28. Personal Protective Equipment • Describe personal protective clothing equipment options for the following hazards: • E –Etiological / Biological NFPA 6.2.3.1(2)

  29. Personal Protective Equipment • Describe personal protective clothing equipment options for the following hazards: • M –Mechanical NFPA 6.2.3.1(2)

  30. Personal Protective Equipment Select personal protective equipment for mission-specific tasks at hazardous materials / WMD incidents based on local procedures. NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)

  31. Personal Protective Equipment 6.2.3.1(3)(a) Describe the following terms and explain their impact and significance on the selection of chemical-protective clothing: i. Degradation ii. Penetration iii. Permeation NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(a)

  32. “There was a brilliant flash of white and the nozzle man was covered in burning magnesium”. NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(a)

  33. NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(a)

  34. Closures are there for a reason NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(a)

  35. Steam burns from water applied to a superheated atmosphere are an example of Permeation NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(a)

  36. Personal Protective Equipment 6.2.3.1(3)(b)Identify at least three indications of material degradation of chemical-protective clothing. • Charring • Shrinking • Swelling • Color Changes • Dissolving • Weight Change • Loss of Tensile Strength NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(b)

  37. Personal Protective Equipment 6.2.3.1(3)(c)Identify the different designs of vapor-protective and splash-protective clothing and describe the advantages and disadvantages of each type. • Vapor-Protection – NFPA 1991 • EPA Level A ensembles – Highest Level of Protection • Worn with SCBA or SABA • Also Components of CBRNE Class 1 and 2 ensembles Disadvantages: • Does NOT protect against all Chemical Hazards • Impairs Mobility, Vision, Communication • Does not allow for Heat to escape – Heat Stress NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(c)

  40. Personal Protective Equipment i.Air cooled Pre-chilled air forced through vest via system of hoses worn close to body Cool air passes body; drawing heat away Light weight – long term cooling Requires hose / umbilical to external fixed compressor NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(d)

  41. Personal Protective Equipment ii.Ice cooled Frozen Ice Packs placed into pockets of specially designed vest Limitations include: weight, bulkiness and close proximity of extreme cold to skin Sometimes fools body it’s cold – retaining more heat NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(d)

  42. Personal Protective Equipment iii. Water cooled Fluid-chilled system operates by pumping ice-chilled liquid from reservoir through tubes within a vest like garment back to reservoir Requires separate battery-operated unit worn on hip or some larger systems have remote external pump Sometimes increasing workload and generating more heat NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(d)

  44. Personal Protective Equipment 6.2.3.1(3)(e) Identify the physiological and psychological stresses that can affect users of personal protective equipment. • Knowing Reason for Suit ! • Heat Related Illnesses • Dehydration • Heat Exhaustion • Heat Stroke • Heat Cramps • Limited Visibility • Limited Mobility • Communications NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(e)

  45. Personal Protective Equipment 6.2.3.1(3)(f)Describe local procedures for going through the technical decontamination process. Responders MUST know: Local Emergency Response Plan (LERP) and Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) Standard Operating Procedures (SOP’s) or Standard Operating Guidelines (SOG’s) NFPA 6.2.3.1(3)(f)

  48. Personal Protective Equipment NFPA 6.2.4.1

  49. Personal Protective Equipment Special Note for All Responders It is strongly recommended that: When Doffing the S.C.B.A. from a Level B suit after Decontamination; “KEEP THE AIR FLOWING” This will ensure residual particulate will be forced away from the Respiratory System NFPA 6.2.4.1

  50. Personal Protective Equipment Describe at least three safety procedures for personnel wearing protective clothing. • Manufacturers Guidelines • Pre-Medical Evaluation • The Buddy System • Communications • Requirements for Cooling Vest NFPA 6.2.4.1(1)
