The invention relates to a glove device, the glove of which is provided for protected intervention in a working chamber of a containment through an access present in a port flange. The port flange is built into a front panel or into a wall of a housing of the containment positioned in an installation area. Machinery for processing goods to be treated can be provided in the working chamber. The glove device is designed as an assembly in the form of an insert which can be inserted into the port flange in a gas-tight manner, said glove device comprising, on one side, a seal which can be removed or is to be opened and, on the other side, a cover part or a shut-off part which is releasable from the assembly, and the vacuum-packed glove between these two sides.

Glove device for protected intervention in a containment

A work glove is installed at the port flange, with the result that the operator can enter the working chamber of the containment in a protected manner. A multiplicity of port flanges are usually mounted on the containment and a work glove is fastened in each case to the respective port flange. Machinery for processing material to be treated is often set up in the working chamber. In order to temporarily block the access, a shut-off part which can be moved into a blocking position and an open position is provided. In order to record personal data relating to the operator, the arrangement has a capture unit which has a connection to a microcontroller.
