SCALHENE™
SCALHENE™
An integral, re-usable suit for working in highly contaminated environments.
Overview
The SCALHENE™ is an application of the DPTE® system.
The integral suit is designed for working inside a large contaminated space and is particularly well adapted to maintenance, decommissioning and sanitization work. It provides protection against atmospheric pollutants (aerosols and gasses)* and can also be adapted to use in a sterile environment (option). The suit is ventilated via a waste outlet which extracts air outside the hot cell.
The SCALHENE™ can be fixed either to a rigid airlock, which can be disconnected from the cell, or directly to a specially designed accessory to the work cell. The rigid airlock supplied by LaCalhene is equipped with glove systems and DPTE®.
* The SCALHENE™ protects against toxic pollution, not from irradiation.
