Designed for the most hazardous of environments and the toughest of jobs, breathing apparatus can be used where PAPR/Airline solutions cannot.
Made for immediately dangerous to life or health atmospheres (IDLH), they are completely non-reliant on ambient air and hazard concentrations: This equipment supplies the user with a totally independent source of clean air.
Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) typically includes an air cylinder and valve, air regulator, hoses and connectors, harness and belt. SCBA offers a completely independent air supply, ideal for many industry applications, from chemical processing to manufacturing, as well as for fire services, to protect from severe respiratory hazards. Anchor Safety experts can advise on the correct equipment for the hazards and challenges that you face, taking into account the wearers, any face fit needed, or supply of head tops for those with beards for whom a face fit would be impossible.
Regular maintenance of this equipment is essential and Anchor Safety can support you with this too, by working with your maintenance programme, carrying out regular checks of straps, buckles, and the overall apparatus including alarms, ensuring the SCBA equipment is clean, functioning, and fully compliant.
