Please note: this product is now obsolete.
Drager Safety offer the PCM elements as an accessory of the Cool Vest CVP 5220. This version of the element comes in a size small but other sizes are available.
The elements work alongside the Cool Vest CVP 5220 which is a comfort vest. The idea of this is to absorb excess body heat when a person is present in high temperature environments. Contact us now for availability on the Cool Vests from Draeger Safety - 0844 550 0001

The PCM (phase change material) initally comes in a solid state (in a temperature of below 22°C). When exposed to temperatures above 28°C it changes to a liquid form as it absorbs heat energy. This is what activates the cooling method.
Once the ambient temperature returns to below 20°C the PCM elements will change phase and take between 30 minutes and 2 hours to become solid again.
