EQUIPMENT OVERVIEW
1.1.
Product Description
The Essex training protective breathing equipment (PBE) is designed to look and feel like the real
device in order to train for emergencies. The training PBE includes actuation clips, simulated O
2
cylinders, and a removable neck seal. The hood is similar in shape, colour, and weight to the OEM
PBE.
This PBE is designed with durable materials in order to withstand the wear and tear it will
experience during repeated use in a training environment. The actuation clips can be reset
without the need for tools, and the device can be completely dismantled for easy cleaning
between uses. Tulmar Safety Systems is also able to provide repairs to the textile portion of the
PBE and replace parts that experience wear through repeated use.
The two models differ only by their activation method; 6485-001 uses a pull ball activation,
whereas 6485-006 uses the Essex standard configuration.
The neck seal for this unit is available in latex free EPDM material or latex based variants.
