Low cost dust helmet MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT Miscellaneous 16-6-27 If you've thought about buying a powered dust helmet but were stopped by the cost, you'll want to take a look at this new low-cost alternative.
Gempler's "Air Cap" weighs just 9 oz. because it's made out of cotton twill rather than plastic or fiberglass. A micro fan motor and filter are built into the bill of the cap, powered by a battery pack that clips to your belt. A flip-up clear plastic shield extends down over the upper part of the face.
The fan pulls outside air through the filter and then blows it down over the face, creating a slight pressure that keeps outside air - together with dust and dirt - from moving upward under the shield.
One size fits all. Battery pack uses 3 C-size batteries to provide up to 40 hrs. continuous use. Comes with two pollen/toxic dust filters. Sells for $99.
