Vortec Cooling Vests

Newly Redesigned for Greater Comfort!

 
 
Workers in extreme temperatures wear Vortec Cooling Vests to minimize heat stress, fatigue, and improve comfort and productivity. The Cooling Vest with integral Cooling Tube uses vortex tube technology and compressed air to provide cold air relief and protection to workers in hot environments. This vest helps to minimize heat related injuries and allows workers to be cool and productive while eliminating the need for costly, unproductive cooling breaks.

The Vortec Advantage

Vortec Cooling Vests with integral Cooling Tubes use filtered compressed air and vortex tube technology to generate cold air used for personal cooling applications.  Cold air, as much as 60 deg below ambient, circulates through the perforated vest to cool the entire torso.  

    Product Features

  • A perforated cooling vest through which the cold air flows is available in three sizes
  • A cooling tube that generates cold air to provide air flow to the worker 
  •  Provides easy temperature control, even with gloved hands.
  • Vest is made with flame resistant fabric the meets CPAI-84, Sec. 6 fire standard specifications
