Semmco EEBD
The Semmco EEBD is a self-contained short duration
oxygen (O
2
) breathing apparatus that provides a supply
of fresh oxygen so that the wearer can breathe freely in
a contaminated or oxygen deficient environment, ensuring
a quick and safe escape.
The Semmco EEBD is available in two different versions:
• 15 minute duration for Military, Maritime & Offshore
• 20 minute duration for Industrial
Each version is contained in an orange, rigid case,
that is discarded once the Semmco EEBD is in use.
How the Semmco EEBD works
The Semmco EEBD uses KO
2
(potassium superoxide) to
provide oxygen to the user. As the EEBD is pulled from its
carry case, a chlorate candle provides oxygen for the user’s
first breath. As the user exhales into the bag, moisture from
their exhaled breath activates the KO
2
that then ‘scrubs’ the
CO
2
and liberates oxygen. Oxygen continues to be generated
while the EEBD is being used and depending on the version
deployed, will last for 15 or 20 minutes.
Main features and benefits
• Automatic start – instant O
2
supply once the EEBD
is removed from the carry case
• Quick and simple to don
• Lightweight - 2kg (with case) 1.3kg (without case)
• Easy to move around when wearing the set
• Clear visual indicator on the case confirms EEBD viability

Storage
The Semmco EEBD can be stored for up to 15 years but
during its life, visual checks must be carried out on a regular
basis to ensure that:
• The case is not damaged
• The anti-tamper label and seal are still intact
• The unit is within the expiry date
• The visual indicator is blue and not pink
If these conditions are not met the unit mustn’t be used
and must be replaced with a new unit.
