NBC system AFU 100

Product benefits

Low power consumption

In the development of the AFU 100 Dräger placed great importance on a low power consumption. A power consumption of 260 W in NBC mode comes very close to the physical limits. This minimum consumption is of particular advantage in small vehicles.

Low weight

The weight of the basic unit AFU 100 is about 26 kilograms. At the same time the AFU is very robust.

Protection for up to 12 individuals

The volume flow of the AFU 100 during NBC mode is 105 m³ per hour. This is adequate for five to twelve individuals, depending on the specific circumstances.

Volume flow in fresh air mode

In fresh air mode the system can generate 200 m³ per hour.

Tested and certified

System, components and filters have been certified in accordance with NATO specification AEP54. In addition there is a version meeting the Bundeswehr requirements (BW-TL).

Increased volume flow with bypass gas filter

The additional fitting of a bypass increases the service life of the gas filter. If the bypass is closed the system switches within seconds to NBC operation. This provides a high level of safety.

Monitored system

Using an electronic pressure monitoring station the relative pressure in the protected inside area can be measured. To adjust the volume flow and pressure individually there is a pressure relief valve.
