Avon Protection introduces a new generation of CBRN Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR), the Avon MP-PAPR system. A departure from traditional rigid plastic construction systems, the Avon MP-PAPR is the world’s first flexible PAPR unit, constructed from the same field proven chlorobutyl rubber, as used for the Avon 50 series masks range. The Avon MP-PAPR module delivers a compact and easily integrated PAPR unit providing cooling, lower user burden and reduced pulmonary stress. The unique shape and construction allows the wearer to mount the PAPR in multiple ways, maximizing integration while delivering higher protection levels and improved well being. Multiple product approvals allow the user to add Avon MP-PAPR to existing fielded systems such as the 50 Series APR’s, convert into a combination PAPR (Avon CS-PAPR) or revert back to an Avon EZAir configuration.
