M6 FES SUIT

NBC FES is constructed as a fully encapsulated one-piece suit with a large visor, integrated gloves and integrated robust soles (IRS). The FES is rear entered. For a good fit, special Velcro tapes are used around the arms and the lower legs. NBC FES is used with a blower unit which creates a positive pressure in the suit. The blower unit is carried outside the M6 FES and blows air into the suit via two NBC filters. The two filters are attached via the universally accepted RD 40 threads. The blower distributes the filtered air into the suit via distribution hoses. To prevent overpressure, relief-valves are incorporated in the NBC FES design. FES is in use in: U.S. Navy Special Warfare Group, Austrian Military, Norwegian Civil Defence, Taiwanese Fire Administration, Arizona Police Dept. and other MOD’s and “First Responder” Organisations around the world
