ILC Dover Unveils Sentinel XT™ Horizon for Innovative Respiratory Protection with Unmatched Comfort & Safety

FREDERICA, Del., Jan. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ILC Dover ("ILC Dover" or the "Company"), an Ingersoll Rand Business and world leader in innovative protective solutions, announced the launch of Sentinel XT™ Horizon. This latest addition to the Sentinel XT™ line of Powered Air-Purifying Respirators (PAPRs) sets a new benchmark in respiratory protection, combining exceptional safety features with unparalleled ease of use.

Sentinel XT™ Horizon is a PAPR hood designed to provide users with superior protection and comfort in demanding environments. Key features of the upgrade include the following:

• Breathable Comfort Collar: The innovative design maintains consistent hood overpressure, eliminating the need to tuck the hood into the suit.
• Panoramic View: The hood offers an expansive, 320-degree field of view, significantly enhancing user safety compared to conventional hoods.
• Exceptional Protection: Sentinel XT™ Horizon boasts a Simulated Workplace Protection Factor (SWPF) exceeding 50,000 and an Assigned Protection Factor (APF) rating of 1,000.
• Ease of Use: The hood is designed for quick donning and doffing, with no adjustments required, simplifying the process for users.
• Universal Size: The hood comfortably fits a wide range of users and supports facial hair and head coverings.
• Enhanced Performance: Sentinel XT™ Horizon supports 12 hours of operation, plus 33% more airflow than other leading PAPRs.

"Sentinel XT™ Horizon represents a significant advancement in respiratory protection technology," said Mark Gruber, general manager of PPE, Packaging, and Safety at ILC Dover. "Our team has worked tirelessly to ensure this product meets and exceeds the highest safety and usability standards. The innovative breathable collar and exceptional protection level set a new standard in the industry."

ILC Dover has introduced a straightforward trade-in program for easy implementation without complex, long-term agreements. This program provides a hassle-free upgrade path to Sentinel XT™ Horizon, delivering immediate savings on battery and blower replacements for aging PAPR systems.
