[@steamerstanley5948]

I worked on a few nuke plants. A trick we use is duck tape any sleeves around the gloves and feet to stop things from getting in I see you did that use a pair of nitrile gloves under your reg gloves. The best way to undress is from the head down, gloves last so you are not touching any contamination. Practice it you wouldn't believe how easy it is to mess up getting undressed. Always wash up avoiding touching your face the damage will come from ingesting from eating or drinking smoking.

[@williamhansen9456]

CBRN is about more than just radiation... The mask goes off LAST!!! AFTER a shower with decontamination agents. Having someone to help you out is always preferable as it is impossible to undress properly on your own.

This is exactly the comment i was looking for i thought you needed to buy some kind of special "chem" tape and noticed most hazmat suit videos were not talking about taping :( ..thanks!

[@KyserClark]

I'm glad you said that these suits get hot for people who have never worn a hazmat suit. I have worn a many different tyvek suits from my job as an asbestos / lead abator, Class C suits when working in the Alkaline unit of the oil Refinery, and Mopp level 4 during our regular chem attack exercises for Military. I've been making a living in these suits for the past 6 years. These suits are HOT. You have to remember that these suits are designed for nothing to get inside them, therefore nothing can get out either. All your body heat just stays inside. Even in below freeing weather these kinds of suits will make you sweat after a pro longed period of time. You add the fact that you are working into that and you can get tired very quickly. You're going to want a drinking tube on your gas mask, if not you will surly dehydrate after a handful of hours in one of these.

[@robertbogan225]

Have you seen a racing cool shirt? Its a shirt with actual water tubes in it. You link the shirt to a bladder and ice the bladder. I think it also has a pump system so im guess the pump can keep it from icing to slow or fast.

When taping gloves you can buy plastic cuffs that expand the sleeves and gloves to a flat fit so there are no folds where the tape seals them together. Also you use your hands a lot when your in the suit. Always wear a secondary glove on the inside. We wear p2 gloves. Made of neoprene. Latex gloves do not provide chemical protection. Always tape overlapping and leave tabs at the end on your taping areas for quick peel off when you have to get out. Glove to cuff is dependent on above head or below work. If you are working above then gloves should go over the cuff. If below then the cuff goes over the glove. Helps to shed chemicals in the right direction. Just a couple tips.

[@anitaleroy9442]

Good point for gloves

[@williamhansen9456]

The whole over-under thing is ingenious! I'm surprised I never thought of this myself... I trained CBRN in the Danish air force and we always do sleeves over gloves...

I am a member of a Hazmat team. Wearing a Level A or B suit our working time is 15-20 minutes inside the Hot Zone due to Heat Stress. I am in the Deep South so it very Humid and Hot.

[@cochiez]

I’ve been an oil spill and haz-mat responder for over a decade and you are absolutely wrong about the differences between Level B and Level C persona protective equipment. Both systems may use a variety of full-body suits to include various versions of Tyvek, Kappler, etc. These suits are designed to protect from chemical splashes (different materials provide different levels of protection from different chemicals) and dust protection. Neither level B or Level C will provide much vapor protection. And, the only difference between level B and C is that B uses supplied air and C is a respirator. Level A is, as you said, fully encapsulated and will protect against vapor. Regarding re-use of PPE, you must know the contaminant and how to decon your PPE appropriately if you’re going to re-use it. Most agencies consider PPE a one time use item for a reason. It’s also imperative that you “fit test” your respirator to make sure the contaminant doesn’t leak through.

[@nickbricks8017]

That suit is actually a level c hazmat suit. Level b and c suits are the same except for the respiratory protection. A level c suit has a gas mask which just filters air. Level b suits have a SCBA wich is self contained which is a lot safer and means that you can enter environments that are a lot more dangerous to your respiratory system. Level c, and b are mostly for splash protection. Level a suits are designed to encounter almost any chemical since they are vapour tight.

Only thing I say is that the suit should be outside the gloves with the chem tape over the seams.

They also have cuffs to use at the wrist for suit and glove seams

Looks like a decent set up. For a SCBA, they are readily available as reconditioned with warranty for about $1000. This would include a single refillable breathing cylinder rated for 30 minutes (read that as less than 30 minutes depending on stress and work load). To make it viable you would need an oil free air compressor capable of 2400 psi. Its doable, but not cheap. Spare cylinders are between $200-300.

We have a few locations that a single pissed-off/traumatized teenager with a sturdy pipe wrench could almost certainly ruin any chances of sustaining life in a 1 mile radius. And a few more that the same person (if so inclined) could easily reduce selected waterways or impoundments to toxic death pits.

Except those lvlAsuits and that filtration canister mask won’t do much. Not in a radiological sit. Those filters would only last a few days in a chem or biological sit. Canisters would clog quickly.

Tychem10000 is a badass suit though. They make enclosed versions and hooded versions. The truth is that unless you have that enclosed scba version your goal is to get out of that area asap. Use these "level B suits" to escape a CBRN situation coming to your location because thats what they were made for. Not the other way around.

[@slickwillie3376]

To combat the heat the suits need one or more battery operated, highly placed exhaust fans (say near the arm pits) with low placed filtered inlets (say in the boots), so as to draw air in near the feet and out near the arm pits. In such a case of course, gloves and boots would need a way of attaching to the suit without taping, so as not to block airflow. The heat is a serious enough problem to recommend it.

[@HazmatUnit]

That isn't really a option on Class C suits, hell if I remember correctly it's only Class A that have a one way valve. Currently technology consist of three options: Ice vest, which can be single use or reusable, which would be worn under the suit. Activated charcoal suits, which provide limited protection and have a short life span but are more breathable. PAPR or powered air purifying respirators.

[@Alli-lx6qy]

I really like your videos. I have some comments. .. These suits will not make you impervious to whatever environmental situation is happening. You need knowledge to use PPE (personal protective equipment) effectively. .. All chemical suits have various times for breakthrough. Meaning a chemical can "eat" through the suit over time. There are breakthough charts for each chemical, suit and the estimated time. Though this time frame is highly subjective, due to anticipated vs actual concentration of the chemical. That's why there is ALWAYS monitoring equipment on-site. The charts should be available on-line. .. Most suits are not made to be reusable. Don't know about you, but I would not want to put back on a suit I have just sweated buckets in. Also you don't know what the "new" break through time would be since the suit may have degraded. .. Heat, cold and sunlight will shorten the lifespan of your suit, respirator, canisters, gloves and boots. Appropriate storage is needed. ... Decontamination is for getting the chemical/substance stuff off the suit so you can safely take it off without exposing yourself. Water + one of two types chemical are used for decontamination. ... Type of gloves/boots/booties used will be dependant on the chemical/ substance. Again there are breakthough charts and recommendation charts available on-line. All classes I have been through use duct tape to seal seams btw gloves/boots and suit. ; ) ... If your truly interested in learning about this topic, you need to take a 40-hr HAZWOPER class. They can be found on-line or you can sit through an actual class. Be prepared to spend some time and money first.

[@COPPERMOUNTAINCOINS.]

It depends on what your using the suit for, in an NBC situation you have to know alot or the suit wont do you a bit of good, knowledge is the best defense in a NBC situation. That suit wont do much for Chemical as most modern weapons are acidic, bio would depend if it was spread through air, contact or ingestion but the best defense is stay away from the contamination and nuclear is all about proximity to blast, fallout and wind direction from blast zone. But the best defense is just to stay away from contaminated areas.

[@TuskeyeAndSon]

[@jdshl8423]

I think if it reaches the state where you need a hazmat suit, it's really time to food supply binge and then go quietly. A hazmat suit doesn't work by just itself. Your shelter needs to be impermeable to the hazmat, your air supply needs to be impermeable to the hazmat, your water supply needs to be impermeable to the hazmat, your food supply needs to be impermeable to the hazmat, etc, etc, etc. And when you can finally go out and breathe the air, which is who knows how many years later, you'll need to grow your food. I think by then the suffering will far exceed the pain of dying a few years before. A hazmat disaster is in the final 10% of things which are hardest to prep for, and probably isn't worth doing at all.

What is included with the HAZ-suit? And if I buy a gas mask, does it come with a filter? What gloves would you recommend for the haz suit? How good is the seal between the suit and the gas mask?

Great video as always! I think NASA (Never A Straight Answer) use some sort of a suit with tubing weave into the fabric. Water flow through the tubing to keep the body cool. You could create something similar for your Hazmat suit.

and you could buy a small car for the price of one of the NASA suits.

I ve searched that before out of interest, and now here we are, a pandemic.

I have had to train wearing MOP gear. If you have sinus allergy problems or just a summer cold, forget about wearing a military grade NBC gas mask out of doors. The minute you start breathing through your mouth instead of your nose, the clear plastic over your eyes will fog up and you will be blind and stumbling into objects. And forget about wearing a jumpsuit of non-breathable fabric for very long no matter what the outdoor temperature. That jump suit will become a sauna and you and your clothing will quickly become drenched in sweat. Unless your NBC mask is equipped with a drinking straw and you have a canteen designed to work with that straw, you will have no way to stay hydrated when wearing that jumpsuit. And poor hydration = heat exhaustion. If the local emergency alert system tells you there is a chemical/poison gas threat, you are better off either evacuating right away or following the FEMA guidelines on how to seal a room and sheltering in place. And you can just wear the gas mask indoors during the worst part of the threat when sheltering in place -- just stay put if the clear part over your eyes fogs up. You as a civilian have no business walking around outside in protective gear. If the threat is some kind of highly contagious airborne disease, you are better off just staying at home in self-imposed quarantine, not admitting outsiders to your home and using N95 face masks, disposable surgical gloves and lots of bleach and spray Lysol when handling mail or other things that arrive from the outside. And if the disease is one for which immunization shots are available -- be wise and get immunized. If the emergency alert system tells you the threat is radioactive fallout, either evacuate away from the projected area of fallout or just stay inside in a shielded location for 14 days. Again, you as a civilian have no business walking around outside in protective gear. You can find expert advice, on coping with radioactive fallout, on the website of The American Civil Defense Association (TACDA). This organization is now offering lifetime memberships in exchange for a one-time donation (as little as $5.00) and membership gives you unlimited access to their archives, on-line access to their journal and lots of on-line educational handouts. Be informed by the experts before investing your hard earned money in gear supposedly designed for NBC threats.

This is one of the last preps to prioritize. It is the absolutely least likely to be used. For a pandemic like flu you simply just wear a good quality dust mask, no need for a suit or a full gas mask.

This is my new favorite channel.

Thanks!

[@PilotPatriot]

Noticed you said you were wearing a size large...how tall are you?

[@mkmemes6277]

Might need this later idk

[@maxrockatanksyOG]

So... You do have the correct decontamination equipment to remove said hazmat suit (a proper enclosed cubicle type deal- not open air)? Sterilizing equipment? Anti- viral protection? Because that suit isn't worth shit unless you can safely decontaminate it without bare skin touching. Same as those mask filters- they are meant to be single use only for viral instances, otherwise they become a carrier & shedder of the virus.

Watching this after I heard the new virus from Wuhan

[@SNIPER-ju8bj]

You and me both

[@Benic14]

Looks like we're all in the same boat

[@Shaggs2Dopes]

Can anyone advise on a particular brand that I can look up that would be a good match for the MIRA Safety Haz-Mat suits. I am remaining hopeful to find gloves for not only me and my wife, but my children as well. I see MCR seems to be mentioned on the net, but there seems to be numerous types of gloves depending on your application. I would be looking for one to compliment these Haz-Mat suits listed above that would help protect from a chemical attack or worse. Any help for a noon is much appreciated:)

[@3000gtwelder]

I hope you are hunting people with that crossbow, because I would not want to eat ANYTHING that was hunted in conditions where you need a Hazmat suit haha!
