General Service Respirator
History[edit] Design work started in 2000, and from the outset the GSR was designed to function better than the S10 in "hot, high and dry" environments whilst still keeping the S10's qualities in the temperate environments of Europe it was originally designed for. It was also designed to be worn for longer periods than the S10, having been designed for 24 hours of continuous use in CBRN environments as opposed to the previous design level of 4 hours. The respirator was officially adopted into service with the Armed Forces on 26 August 2010, and training started during 2011, with British Forces Germany being first to field them. All new personnel are trained in use of the system. Features[edit] The new respirator, produced by Scott Health and Safety Ltd, reportedly provides a significantly higher level of protection. Users[edit] British Army (2012)Royal Navy (2012)Royal Air Force (2012)Royal Fleet Auxiliary (Late 2012) References[edit]
