Features and Benefits

High flow rate (72 LPM) 5 minute escape respirator for highly aerobic escape activities

Principles of Operation

In the event of a spill or release of toxic material, the worker can quickly retract the protective cover, turn on the air cylinder valve, remove and don the hood, and leave the hazardous area. The Custom Air V Escape Respirator supplies a continuous flow of air to the hood from the compressed-air cylinder.

Approvals and Standards

The Custom Air V Escape Respirator is jointly certified by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and the Mine Safety Health Administration (MSHA) under Subpart H, 30 CFR, Part 11. It has Certification TC-13F-217 for 5 minute rated service.

Applications

Chemical
Nuclear
Oil and Gas
Paper & Pulp

Hazards

Oxygen Deficiency
Toxic Atmosphere IDLH
Toxic Atmosphere Non-IDLH

Product Information

For personnel who may need to escape from atmospheres that are made immediately dangerous to life and health (IDLH) by high concentrations of toxic gases or vapors, or by oxygen deficiency. The lightweight unit can either be carried by the worker or mounted on a wall nearby. The unit features a high flow rate of 72 liters per minute (lpm), and meets stringent air-flow requirements for extremely aerobic escape applications. The hood is made of flexible urethane and can be worn over beards, glasses, etc.

Features and Benefits

Moderate flow rate (40 LPM) 5 or 10 minute escape respirator for moderately aerobic escape activities

Applications

Chemical
HVAC
Medical
Nuclear

Hazards

Oxygen Deficiency
Toxic Atmosphere IDLH
Toxic Atmosphere Non-IDLH

Product Information

When you need to bail out quickly, the TransAire 5 and TransAire 10 escape respirators deliver a consistent air supply at 40 lpm. This standard-flow rate makes for a smooth escape in normal aerobic escape applications. The TransAire 10 escape respirator is pressurized to 3000 psig, and the TransAire 5 escape respirator is pressurized to 2216 psig. The compact units employ aluminum cylinders that can withstand exposure to temperatures from zero to 160 degrees F. Despite their durability, the units are extremely lightweight.
