Method for wearing and taking off protective suit

A method for wearing and taking off a protective suit which is used when a worker enters the inside of a working zone segregated from the outside thereof, characterized in that said protective suit has a cylindrical portion and a cylindrical joining member provided on the outer periphery of the cylindrical portion, the cylindrical portion and the cylindrical joining member are both made of a film-like fusible material, and one end of the cylindrical portion is joined to the protective suit so that the worker can get into or out of the suit by passing through said cylindrical portion;

• that, when wearing the protective suit, the worker gets into the suit by passing through said cylindrical portion, with the open end of said joining member being kept joined to an entrance/exit section provided in a wall which segregates the inside of the working zone from the outside thereof, and then the other end of the cylindrical portion is fused and closed to segregate the inside of the suit from the outside thereof, and then a separate pouch-like member made of a film-like fusible material is provided to seal the entrance/exit section while removing the joining member from the entrance/exit section, thereby maintaining segregation between the inside and outside of the working zone and separating the protective suit carrying both the cylindrical portion and the joining member from the entrance/exit section;
• and
• that, when taking off the protective suit, the cylindrical portion on the protective suit side and the pouch-like portion on the entrance/exit section side are superposed one on the other and fused at the superposed portion provided with an anti-fusion tape applied on the interior side of the cylindrical portion and, after cutting the fused portion, the worker gets out of the suit by passing through that part of the cylindrical portion which has not been fused owing to the presence of said anti-fusion tape.
