The Tyvek® 500 HP TY178S HP is an innovative, patent-pending protective coverall specifically engineered for workers who must wear a full-body harness in hazardous environments. Unlike traditional garments, this model is designed to be worn over the harness, providing a barrier against particles and light liquid aerosols for both the wearer and their fall-protection equipment. It features a unique configuration with four attached sleeves to accommodate various D-ring positions and an off-centered zipper to facilitate front connections.
Equipment Longevity: Protects expensive full-body harnesses from external contamination, such as paint overspray, chemicals, and grime.
Uncompromised Safety: Rigorously tested via dynamic fall tests with articulated mannequins to ensure the garment does not impair the proper function of the harness in the event of a fall.
Balanced Performance: Utilizes high-quality fabric to provide an ideal balance of protection, durability, and breathability.
Worker Comfort: Extremely lightweight and features an ample crotch area to maintain mobility and comfort during active tasks.
Contamination Control: The garment is low-linting and manufactured with no added silicone, making it ideal for sensitive environments like paint shops.
Versatile Access: Allows the user to utilize front, back, and side D-rings simultaneously without breaking the protective seal.
Harness-Compatible Design: Equipped with four elasticized D-ring sleeves (front, back, and both sides) and an off-centered zipper entry.
Certified Protection: Classified as Category III, Type 5-B (particle-tight) and 6-B (limited splash-tight) chemical protective clothing.
Technical Standards: Meets EN 14126 (infective agents), EN 1073-2 (radioactive contamination), and EN 1149-5 (antistatic treatment on both sides).
Secure Fit: Features a 3-piece hood with an elastic face opening, elasticated wrists and ankles, and a glued-in elastic waist.
Integrated Safety Details: Includes thumb loops to prevent sleeves from riding up and a storm flap over the zipper for added protection.
Durable Construction: Built with stitched seams and a robust zipper system.
Painting and Coating: Ideal for spray painting where both fall protection and low-linting garments are required.
Industrial Maintenance: Used during high-elevation repairs where equipment must stay clean and functional.
Cleaning and Sanitization: Protection against light liquid aerosols and hazardous particles.
General Industrial Operations: Suitable for any task requiring a full-body harness in environments with biological or particle-based hazards.
