Abstract: A protective suppression system including one or more sleeves of expansion coil of energy-absorbing material wrapped around a hose and a blanket which can be wrapped loosely around the wrapped hose. The longitudinal edges of the blanket fasten together to form a protective cylindrical tube, and can be joined end-to-end with one or more additional blankets to extend the protective tube to a desired total length. The system thus can provide improved safety to personnel and the environment by shielding a hose under pressure to suppress bursts, block leaks and by redirecting or channeling test fluids and cleaning fluids.
