The complete set of Security Devices demining protective equipment includes:
Based on the successful Mk1 armour with improved comfort and fragmentation resistance, the ensemble provides full frontal blast protection that is lightweight, durable and economic. The
PPE ensemble comes complete with a purpose-made bag. The bag is
weatherproof, padded and washable and can usually be made in a
colour to match the PPE inside. The
PPE bag includes an inner flap to protect the visor which is put
into the bag first. The rolled apron is then inserted and rests
inside the curve of the protected visor. The knee- shin-pads then
fit inside the rolled armour. The
top is closed with a toggle draw string and a weatherproof lid
is fastened over the top with a quick-release back-pack buckle. The
bag has adjustable shoulder straps for easy carrying. It can be
attached to the AVS demining tool-kit or carried alone as a back-
or shoulder-pack. The total weight of the full PPE set (visor, apron and knee-pads) in its bag is 4.9Kg (about 10.8 lbs). Without the knee-pads the weight is reduced to 3.9Kg (about 8.6lbs). |
