Product Data Sheet
Versar PPS Hydrogel® Modular Cool Vest
Overview
The modular vest provides long effective cooling relief in warm temperature and extreme heat conditions. It
protects & cools the body in an optimal way. No electrical appliances required for activation – only water.
Cooling is immediate, but gentle, and gives a refreshing feeling of cooling for
work and medical environments. It becomes lighter as the water evaporates
due to body heat, reducing fatigue.

Activation
The Cooling pads need to be activated in water before use by immersing the cooling pads in a container
with water for about 30 - 60 minutes. Then gently wring (can be wrapped in a towel to remove excess
water), and hang in a well-ventilated place for 30 minutes, if required touch dry.
For additional cooling, after activation the pads can be frozen or refrigerated.
