The 3M Versaflo S-855 assembly prepares a sealed seam inner collar hood with reusable suspension for workstations where textile replacement should remain separate from head adjustment. The Zytron 200 S-805 hood with acetate visor comes with S-950 suspension and its adjustment accessories. In pharmaceutical production, food processing or painting, complete this assembly with an approved tube and air supply. The hood provides no filtration by itself.

Features and benefits of the suspension assembly

• S-805 sealed seam inner collar hood is supplied with its support.
• Reusable S-950 suspension is distinct from a protective hard hat.
• Zytron 200 fabric and acetate visor.
• S-955 cover, S-954 size reducing pad and S-923 multi-layer visor cover are included.
• Fluid resistance under ASTM F1862 does not establish universal chemical resistance.

Applications in laboratories, production and painting

Recommended uses include pharmaceutical manufacturing, medical activities, food and beverage production, agriculture and painting. In a laboratory or production station, consider fluid resistance and the inner collar together with contaminants and complete respiratory system requirements. The assembly is not intended for flames or sparks.

Compatibility, suspension and configurations

The S-855 combines S-805, S-950, S-955, S-954 and S-923. Suspension is therefore included, while the tube and air supply must be added within the approved combination. Select supported supplied air configurations according to the corresponding valves and panels without assuming every fitting or air supply is suitable.

Installation and adjustment

Fit the hood to the S-950 suspension and position the inner collar according to instructions. S-954 and S-955 accessories support preparation and adjustment without replacing assembly checks. Connect the approved tube and perform configuration checks before work. The S-923 visor cover does not replace visor inspection.

Use limitations

Do not use this system in atmospheres containing less than 19.5% oxygen, with unknown contaminant concentrations, or that are immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH). The hood alone filters neither particulates nor gases or vapours. NIOSH approval concerns a complete approved combination. ASTM F1862 addresses hood fluid resistance without establishing universal chemical resistance. This textile is not intended for high heat, flames or sparks.

Care, storage and replacement

Inspect the fabric, seams, inner collar and visor before use. Replace a soiled or damaged hood even if the suspension appears sound. Check S-950 attachments before reassembly and clean reusable elements according to their instructions. Preserve clean textiles during storage. S-series hoods contain no natural rubber latex.

FAQ: the S-855 inner collar hood assembly

Is the S-855 a hood alone?

No. It includes the S-805 with S-950 suspension and S-955, S-954 and S-923 accessories. Select the tube and air supply separately.

Does S-950 suspension replace a hard hat?

The S-950 is reusable suspension for this hood assembly. The assembly is not presented as a protective hard hat.

What materials form the hood and visor?

The hood uses Zytron 200 fabric and the visor is acetate.

Can the assembly be used for a task involving flames?

No. The hood is not intended for flames, sparks or high heat.

Which parts should be checked when changing the textile?

Examine the suspension and fasteners before fitting a new hood. Replace a soiled or damaged hood and follow instructions for cleaning reusable elements.

Complementary suggestions

For a preparation worker fitting the inner collar hood before assembly work, plan fitted knit inspector gloves (G120) for equipment handling. Clear Cee Tec glasses (YA12E93101) serve outside the hood. An MSA Super V ratchet helmet (TA82) concerns separate tasks outside this suspension assembly. An orange traffic polo (VV6986) serves movement between areas, and red and white adhesive tape (ECT750R) reserves the station during maintenance.

For support care, order replacement suspension (RS950) and adjustment cover (RS955). Clips (RS952) match the S-950 visor fasteners. For an approved supplied air configuration, review the low pressure valve (RV400) OR heating (RV200) assembly according to the selected supply. Request S-805 textile, S-954 pad and S-923 visor cover by their exact models.
