The Optrel Softhood Long Black is a full-coverage powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR) hood designed for workers who require extended respiratory and upper-body protection in dusty, particulate-heavy, and industrial environments.
Unlike the short version, the long model extends over the shoulders and upper chest, providing additional coverage against airborne contaminants while maintaining exceptional comfort and visibility.
When connected to a compatible Optrel PAPR blower system, the Softhood Long Black delivers filtered air into the breathing zone, creating a positive-pressure environment that helps reduce exposure to airborne particles, dust, smoke, and other workplace contaminants.
