Protective Coverall Ansell AlphaTec 4000 (formerly Microgard Microchem 4000)

Model 111 - with standard sleeve and leg ends

AlphaTec 4000 is a Type 3 and Type 4 limited life protective coverall that combines exceptionally lightweight fabric with a high barrier for a wide range of hazardous chemicals. In addition, unique design characteristics provide excellent protection against life-threatening liquid chemicals.

Level of protection

The AlphaTec 4000 Coverall is suitable for protection against hazardous liquid chemicals and has been
tested according to CE Type 3 [pressure spray] and Type 4 [spray saturation].

Properties

• The unique five-layer fabric combines the feel of a lightweight fabric with an exceptional barrier against hazardous liquid chemicals.
• The fabric has been tested for permeability to more than 100 chemicals according to EN 374-3.
• Design features such as high quality elasticated hems around the ankles and wrists, external cuffs and a unique double flap zip ensures that the garment provides excellent protection.

Version

• The AlphaTec 4000 uses a welded version of our optimal pattern suit, designed for maximum wearability, comfort, and durability. The design includes a hood with a unique x-seam, perfecting the fit to the head.
• Specially extended outer cuffs allow a secure seal between the chemical gloves and the wrist. The inner cuffs are made of comfortable knitted material.
• The front opening is characterised by a flap with a double zipper. A more traditional method of clamping the zipper flap is to use double-sided tape.However, this method is problematic because it relies on the user to ensure a good seal between the tape and their own clothing. In Microchem® 4000, the inner zipper closes the garment, while the outer zipper ensures that the zipper flap is properly positioned and sealed. This means that a secure seal can be achieved quickly and at any time.
• All seams are taped with special tape to provide even better protection from chemicals.
• Reinforcement of the material in the crotch area to eliminate the risk of possible tearing.
