200 pounds
The quantity is exact as entered. Comparisons use the clearly stated specimen, model or nominal measurement.
Adult in firefighting gear
A defined 1.78 m, 75 kg standing adult wearing 18 kg of structural firefighting clothing and breathing equipment, for a combined mass of 93 kg. This is a comparison specimen, not a load limit.
NIST — Firefighter protective equipment
The marked defined person-and-gear mass is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.

How to read the visual
The labelled spans and stored measurements determine the scale; unmeasured illustration details do not.
- Adult in firefighting gear uses a 93 kg central value within a recorded range of 88 kg–100 kg.
- Adult in firefighting gear is labelled defined specimen; treat the displayed value as a comparison anchor rather than false precision.
- The recorded ranges overlap, so the ordering can vary even though the central values differ.
