 Portable Personal Vortex Cooling &
Heating Systems use filtered compressed air and vortex
tube technology to keep workers comfortable in extremely
hot or cold areas. Portable Personal Vortex Cooling &
Heating Systems use the Model 855
or 857 Diffuse Air Vest to distribute
cooled or heated air over the upper body.
Applications:
Unlike "ice pack" type vests, the PAC offers consistent
and continuous cooling to minimize heat stress and increase
worker productivity in hot surroundings. The vest allows
full range of motion with no airflow restrictions and
can be worn under welding leathers or protective clothing.
The vortex tube unit, worn on a supplied belt, cools or
heats inlet temperature by ±60°F
