Gloves
We recommend a glove with a longer cuff length for use with the VersaFlow. The sleeve and “bracelet” system
will accommodate almost any commercially available glove.
Procedure for Changing Gloves During Maintenance
Your standard two-part glove consists of:
•
1 glove sleeve
•
1 disposable glove
•
1 Glove Over Sleeve (GOS), a 3” diameter ring with three grooves on the outside
•
2 Glove O-ring clamps, rubber rings that can stretch to fit around the GOS
•
2 Sleeve O-ring clamp, rubber ring that can stretch to fit around the 10” gloveport
1. Pull the Glove and Sleeve out of the work area so that the sleeve is inside out and pull the existing glove and
securing O-rings off.
2. Fold the sleeve back over the GOS so that the end of the sleeve is even with the end of the GOS.
3. Stretch the O-ring clamp over the sleeve and secure in the last groove of the GOS (the one farthest away
from your person).
4. Stuff the new Glove inside the sleeve and stretch the cuff over the sleeve/GOS.
5. Take the second O-ring clamp and slide it over the glove, securing it in the GOS groove closest to you.
6. Push the entire glove and sleeve back into the box; it has been successfully changed.
