NEW: Dräger PSS® AirBoss
Wastewater
Information
Designed for emergency teams in industries where safety is most critical such as within airports, oil & gas, clean energy, utilities, nuclear plants, tunnelling and mining, Dräger’s PSS® AirBoss includes a carrying mechanism with pneumatics, monitoring systems, masks and numerous accessories such as the ultra-lightweight Type 4 Nano compressed air breathing cylinders, lung demand valves and fire escape hoods.
State-of-the-art ergonomics form a vital feature of the Dräger PSS® AirBoss evolution. Improved wearer comfort has been achieved by shifting the centre of gravity relationship between the human body and the set and creating a ventilated space by the SCBA backplate. It is also improved through a pivoting waist belt and three-step height adjustments. PSS® AirBoss’s weight is carried by the legs and pelvis rather than the back. This not only improves personal comfort, but also enhances mobility within confined spaces, while descending ladders and stairwells and in any situation which requires a high level of mobility.
It is available in three models: PSS® AirBoss Active providing the lowest weight; PSS® AirBoss Agile with increased safety features; and PSS® AirBoss Connect, providing a ‘Buddylights’ feature fitted to the backplate, which uses digital data from the set to provide immediate and highly visible signalling to firefighters of their team’s cylinder pressures and physical condition. Large reflective surfaces also increase the visibility of the wearer in all models.
Cleaning has been made simpler by designing smoother, non-absorbent, water-repellent surfaces to make equipment easier to wipe down and decontaminate. Reduced webbing material allows for faster drying and numerous attachment points mean kit can easily be dismantled for optimum cleaning – both mechanically and by hand.
