Material Testing and On-Site System Testing of Collective Protective Equipment.
Critical facilities require reliable protection against chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats. ColPro units provide this essential defense. At ProQares, we ensure your collective protective equipment meets military standards or your specific requirements.
For ColPro units, we offer a range of tests, including material testing, carbon adsorption testing, and on-site system testing. Each aspect is thoroughly analysed to confirm it delivers the necessary level of protection. For materials and adsorption testing, we work with several Toxic Industrial Chemicals (TICs) and Chemical Warfare Agents (CWAs). Permeation tests determine if the (tent) material adequately resists these substances. Carbon (or other adsorbent) adsorption tests evaluate the filter blower unit’s adsorption capacity, while aerosol tests measure the filter efficiency of the unit.
For on-site testing, we collaborate with our partner TNO, setting up the system in a sealed, controlled chamber. Within this chamber, we generate an aerosol concentration of a harmless simulant. Monitoring equipment inside the ColPro system measures whether the aerosol penetrates the system.
This combination of tests provides assurance that your collective protective equipment performs as expected.
Our tests are suitable for both mobile and stationary collective protective equipment. We use advanced test set-ups in our laboratory and on-site, delivering high-quality and highly reliable test results to manufacturers and end users.
