NBC SYSTEMS (M8A3, M13, and M14) -ALL CARRIERSEXCEPT M1064. Any
of the NBC systems provide protection against Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical
attacks. The NBC System will not filter exhaust gases and other potentially
poisonous gases, nor will the air purifier provide oxygen to protect against
asphyxiation. Carriers maybe equipped differently. All of the NBC systems consist
of an air purifier, hose assemblies, a circuit breaker, switch, and electric cables. In
addition to the basic NBC system (M8A3), the M13 NBC system adds heaters to
heat the purified air in cold weather, and the M14 NBC system provides hospital
hood protectors for disabled patients. The M14 may also have heaters.
