ILC Dover Introduces the Sentinel XL™ PAPR – with Breakthrough Backpack Design

Frederica, DE: ILC Dover’s Sentinel XL™ powered air purifying respirator is the first PAPR designed to be ready when you are. Its unique backpack serves as a durable carrier, easy charging platform, and ergonomic mounting harness.

The Sentinel XL™ is lightweight, sturdy, easily stored and carried in a backpack, and can be donned quickly. The hood is easy to wear, has a wrap-around visor for greater visibility with an integrated flexible breathing hose for ease of movement, and no fit test is required.

The Sentinel XL™ system is NIOSH-approved and provides reliable protection from harmful elements. The entire system can be charged while hanging in the backpack. Its fast/smart charger technology reduces charging time.

Handling the needs and performance requirements of hospital-based first receivers, the Sentinel XL™ is ready when needed. Its breakthrough backpack design merges convenience with versatility.
