AIP Information

The AIP provides gloves, face masks, and overshoes, which are normally used by the institute's Technical Section. This protective clothing and equipment comes from the laboratories and workshops, where instruments for telescopes and satellites are developed and built. For example, it is not possible to enter a cleanroom without protective clothing. Likewise, the equipment in the laboratories provides protection against hazardous substances and prevents the contamination of sensitive components such as cameras or lenses.
