Biobelt pouches and harness assemblies were used by astronauts to hold their biomedical monitoring devices. There is no record of this unit as having flown on any mission, nor to which astronaut it was assigned.

Biobelts were constructed of a cotton duck base with Teflon-coated Beta-cloth pockets into which were fitted an electrocardiograph signal conditioner, an impedance pneumograph signal condtioner and a DC-DC converter. They were fitted with snap fasteners which attached to either the constant wear or liquid cooling garment, as activities indicated.

Transferred to the National Air and Space Museum from NASA in 1975.
