2 1/2 Hour Duration, Closed Circuit Life Support System Final Report Including Test Report and Outline for NIOSH Certification.

Abstract

A self contained, closed circuit breathing apparatus was developed for ILC DOver for the purpose of life support in a HCPCO (Hazardous Chemical Protective Clothing). Tests were performed to prove the design for life support compatibility over a duration period of 2.5 hours. Peripheral functions of the system were also tested. Recommendations were made from conclusive results. Finally an outline was presented for submitting the system for NIOSH certification. (Author)
