In contaminated areas, wear life of JSLIST?

• A. 12 hours
• B. 24 hours
• C. 48 hours
• D. 72 hours

Answer: (B)

Wear life is the maximum time you can safely wear the protective suit in a contaminated environment before it must be removed for replacement or decontamination. JSLIST provides a permeation barrier, but that barrier has a limited duration under real-use conditions. In contaminated areas, the standard wear life is 24 hours, meaning plan to change the suit after about a day of continuous use. Factors like higher contamination levels, heat and exertion, or any signs of degradation (dampness, odor, tears, or compromised seams) can shorten this time, so you should replace it sooner if those conditions occur.
