Applications and Industries Benefiting from SCBA
SCBA systems are widely used across a range of applications where the ambient site air is severely hazardous, oxygen depleted and/or limited in supply, such that regular respiratory protection would be ineffective. These applications include confined-space entry and rescue; firefighting and emergency response/Hazmat; marine and offshore; and industries such as hazardous waste/chemicals and oil/gas.
For each of these specialist applications, SCBA systems must be properly specified to match the job requirements including duration of use and comfort & fit.
