Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5148717
A supplied-air hood constructed by Safety and Supply Company, Seattle, Washington, was evaluated for personnel protection in high concentrations of either dust, vapor, or radioactive particulates. The hood was evaluated in a test atmosphere of dioctyl-phthalate (DOP) polydispersed aerosol, with human subjects wearing the hood. The hood was evaluated by a series of exercises testing for noise levels, temperatures, communications, and the degree of protection provided. Recommendations for use and construction are made.
