Personal Air Conditioners - The personal cooling vests that provide worker comfort in hot or cold environments.
 Personal Air Conditioners (PACs) use filtered compressed air and vortex tube technology to keep workers comfortable in extremely hot or cold areas. Portable Personal Vortex Personal Air Conditioners (PACs) use the Model 855 or 857 Diffuse Air Vest to distribute cooled or heated air over the upper body.
Applications:
Unlike "ice pack" type vests, the Personal Air Conditioners (PACs) offers consistent and continuous cooling to minimize heat stress and increase worker productivity in hot surroundings. The vest allows full range of motion with no airflow restrictions and can be worn under welding leathers or protective clothing. The vortex tube unit, worn on a supplied belt, cools or heats inlet temperature by ±60°F.
