1.3 MSA AUER Identification System Transponder:

2 Application
The protective suit is not a breathing apparatus by
itself. It must be worn with a compressed air breath-
ing apparatus. With the apparatus the suit protects
the wearer against toxic agents and materials
harmful to the skin as well as oxygen deficiency.
With the compressed air breathing apparatus the
wearer can move around freely.
Wearing a protective suit and compressed air
breathing apparatus will put a physical strain on the
wearer - he must, therefore, be in good physical
condition. During application proper safety measures
must be taken and observed.
3 Design of the Protective Suit
3.1 Design
The one-piece suit is made of a compound material
and has a replaceable lens, tightly attached and re-
placeable gloves and boots, a gas-tight zipper and
three suit valves.
Under the lens of the chemical protective suit
VAUTEX ELITE S (Part No. D3020826) there is a
distance spacer which improves the user's freedom
of movement.
The composite suit material consists of a carrier, a
multifilm laminate and an elastomere coating. This
combination results in an outside appearance differ-
ent to that of Vautex SL. The new Vautex Elite is not
smooth but has a slightly uneven surface. This has
no influence on the suits’ quality and their perform-
ance.
The back section is enlarged to accommodate a
compressed air breathing apparatus.
The spacious head part allows wearing a protective
helmet inside the suit. To fit various helmet sizes an
adjustable strap is fixed between the suit valves.
In the head section of the chemical protective suit
Model Gallet Helmet there is a special head plate to
fit the Gallet helmet. The head plate is held in place
with push buttons.
The zipper is on the front, from the right leg to the
head.
The chemical protective suit VAUTEX ELITE S (Part
No. D3020826) is equipped with Transponder tech-
nology for protective suits. The Transponder is an
electronic data carrier where a code is stored. The
code is read without contact by the MSA AUER
Transponder Reading Device and thus permits clear
identification of the chemical protective suit. To show
the code and for further processing with the
MSA AUER Transponder Reading Device, a PC or
the MSA AUER Multicheck and corresponding soft-
ware are required.
3.2 Operation
Breathable air is supplied from the compressed air
breathing apparatus that is worn on the back. The
exhalation air passes through the exhalation valve of
the facepiece into the inside of the suit and then
through the suit valves into the ambient atmosphere.
