You have questions - #AskAvon has answers! QUESTION: “Why the need for two filters to be worn at the same time with the Avon FM50 APR?” ANSWER: The #AvonFM50 APR (Air Purifying Respirator) is designed with the capability to mount two filters for several reasons: Increased Airflow and Lower Profile: Utilizing two filters can improve airflow, making breathing easier for the user. This design not only enhances airflow for easier breathing during strenuous activities and extended use, but also reduces snag hazards and simplifies weapon sighting. Balanced Weight Distribution: The FM50's dual-filter setup provides balanced weight distribution on your face, significantly improving comfort and reducing fatigue during long-term wear. Redundancy and Extended CBRN Protection: Utilizing two filters offers redundancy, ensuring continuous protection even if one filter becomes clogged. Plus, when you need to change a filter, the Avon FM50 allows you to do so without interrupting your breathing – one filter stays in place while you replace the other, ensuring your safety in environments with high contaminant concentrations. For the FM50™ APR to function effectively in more hazardous environments or for longer duration use, both filters should be utilized to ensure maximum protection and optimal breathing ease. The Avon Protection FM50 APR is now available as a complete kit (with FM61EU filters and a clear outsert) at: https://lnkd.in/eYSrhJ2W 📸: Blue Line Syndicate Group | BEEZ COMBAT SYSTEMS, INC. #AdvanceWithConfidence #respirator #MadeInTheUSA #tacticaltrainng #tacticalgear #CBRN #NIOSH #igmilitia #specialforces #gunsofinstagram #lawenforcement #firstresponders #preparedness #warfighter #military #emergencypreparedness #gearaddict #beprepared #gearjunkie #safetyfirst #shtf #survivalist #survivalkit #survivalgear #bugoutgear #prepper #preppergear #gasmask

AVON IN ACTION: USSOCOM CBRN RDAX 2024 - Operation Dragon Spear. The Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Research, Development, Acquisition Experiment (RDAX) is a training event that allows U.S. special operations forces (SOF) and industry leaders to test new CBRN defense technologies in realistic scenarios. The goal is to improve operational effectiveness for warfighters by identifying and evaluating new technologies that address capability gaps. In this video scenario, United States Air Force Special Operations Commandos are tasked with conducting recovery of key personnel following the destruction from a nuclear detonation. Technology used allows the operators to map “hot spots” of radiation so they can avoid them while locating and evacuating staff with decreased effects from residual hazards. The special operators worked tirelessly in Avon Protection EXOSKIN CBRN Suit ensembles, Avon CS PAPR SDs, and ST54 Multi-Mission SCBAs to recover the victims while staying protected in austere environments. #AdvanceWithConfidence avon-protection.com shop.avon-protection.com #AvonProtection #respirator #MadeInTheUSA #tacticaltraining #tacticalgear #CBRN #CBRNE #NIOSH #specialforces #SOF #SOCOM #firstresponders #preparedness #warfighter #military #chemicalwarfare #gasmask

AVON IN ACTION: USSOCOM CBRN RDAX 2024 – The Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Research, Development, Acquisition Experiment (RDAX) is a training event that allows U.S. special operations forces (SOF) and industry leaders to test new CBRN defense technologies in realistic scenarios. The goal is to improve operational effectiveness for warfighters by identifying and evaluating new technologies that address capability gaps. Dubbed “Operation Dragon Spear”, The experiment is hosted by the United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) in conjunction with the Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Defense-JPEO-CBRND, and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. The experiment took place at Guardian Centers of Georgia LLC. and includes training scenarios designed to simulate the environment and operational challenges of a CBRN-contested space. Special operators provide real-time feedback on equipment that is still being developed. Selected defense industry participants – such as Avon Protection, showcase new technologies, tactical equipment and decontamination materials designed specifically for the advanced warfighter in austere environments. In this scenario, operators from the 75th Ranger Regiment, U.S. Army are tasked with conducting recovery of key personnel following the destruction from a nuclear detonation. Technology used allows the operators to map “hot spots” of radiation so they can avoid them while locating and evacuating staff with decreased effects from residual hazards. The special operators worked tirelessly in EXOSKIN CBRN Suit ensembles, Avon Protection CS PAPR SDs, and ST54 Multi-Mission SCBAs to recover the victims while staying protected in austere environments. #AdvanceWithConfidence avon-protection.com shop.avon-protection.com #AvonProtection #respirator #MadeInTheUSA #tacticaltraining #tacticalgear #CBRN #CBRNE #NIOSH #specialforces #SOF #SOCOM #firstresponders #preparedness #warfighter #military #chemicalwarfare #gasmask

ASK AVON: What’s the difference between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention NIOSH and ABEK certifications for CBRN respiratory protection, and why are they important? We turn it over once again to popular content creator Tactical Belle's latest video where she breaks down the key differences between NIOSH and ABEK certifications. • NIOSH Certification: Known for its stringent standards and rigorous testing, NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) certification is the gold standard in the United States for ensuring the highest level of respiratory protection against Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) threats. • ABEK Certification: This European certification covers protection against various gases and vapors. While effective, it doesn’t match the extensive and comprehensive testing processes of NIOSH. See why choosing the right certification can make all the difference in keeping you safe from hazardous emergency threats.
