Garment Inspection, Maintenance, and Testing
Garment Inspection
The wearer must inspect all encapsulated Tychem
garments at the following times to determine that the suit
has not been damaged or compromised:
See Garment Maintenance Schedule (Table 1).
1.
Immediately upon receipt from supplier.
2
Before it is placed in service to be worn.
3.
After a garment is worn and before the garment
is placed in service to be worn again. Do not use
contaminated, damaged or altered garments.
4
Inspect annually.
Garment Inspection Steps:
1.
Lay the garment on a clean, smooth surface.
2.
The inspection should include all areas of the suit: body,
visor, and gloves (if present).
3.
Use a flashlight inside the suit to examine for holes,
cuts, or tears. Confirm that any suspected visual
imperfection is actually a void by using a small amount
of water to confirm penetration.
NOTE: Visible stitch holes which are covered by seam
sealing tape do not constitute a defect.
4. Examine all taped seam areas for proper seal. Look for
areas where seam tape has lifted away from the suit or
where seam tape does not fully cover stitch holes.

5.
Examine the entire garment for signs of damage. A
breach, rupture, or hole of any component of the suit
is cause for rejection. Note that the fabric, visor, gloves,
or seams may have visual blemishes that do not affect
barrier performance. Such blemishes can include areas
adjacent to the seam tape that appear to be dull, white,
or frosted.
6. Examine the visor to ensure it offers a clear visual field.
7.
If the garment includes a pass thru option, examine the
garment's air distribution system to ensure that there
are no obstructions and that it is connected properly
and is in proper working order.
8. Examine the garment gloves (if present) to ensure that
they are in good condition and properly attached to the
suit. Gently pull on the gloves to ensure that they are
firmly attached to the suit.
NOTE: You can potentially damage the gloves by
pulling with excessive force.
9. Examine the garment zipper and zipper cover to make
sure they are in good working order. Operate the
zipper. Lubricate the zipper, if needed. Please refer
to section on closure lubricants. Engage the hook
and loop tape on the zipper storm flaps to ensure
appropriate adhesion.
10. Examine all garment snaps, etc. to ensure they are in
good working order.
11. Examine garment labels to ensure they are firmly
attached and are legible.
