An enclosure for handling hazardous material includes a sealable housing
which is configured with a first air inlet connected to a bubble gauge
and a second air inlet disposed inside the housing for air evacuation
from the housing is connected to a pump for maintaining subatmospheric
pressure in the enclosure and for drawing a stream of air inwardly
through the first air inlet via the bubble gauge into the housing and out
the second air inlet. A filter interposed in the stream of air leading to
the second inlet. At least one glove port is formed in the housing and
has a flexible relatively gas impermeable glove connected thereto. An air
exchange port in the housing is operably connected to a sealed bellows
which provides for changes in air volume within the enclosure which
occurs from moving the glove within the enclosure under subatmospheric
pressure.
