Whenever emergency teams are saving lives or extinguishing fires, above or below the ground the Draeger PSS BG 4 Plus comes into its own. Whether used during rescue or fire fighting missions in mines, tunnels or underground train ducts, or in assignments with long access routes, the closed circuit breathing apparatus is the first choice. More than 25,00 professional users rely on the Draeger PSS BG 4 worldwide.

Numerous improvements and new accessories and further improved the ease of servicing. The modifications are available individually or a practical retrofit set upon request.

The slight positive pressure breathing circuit protects the wearer by preventing hazardous substances from entering the sealed breathing system. Depending on the applications, the duration of use is up to four hours. A CO2 absorber removes carbon dioxide from the exhaled air. At the same time the breathing air is enriched with oxygen from the oxygen cylinder. Before the regenerated breathing air is inhaled again it flows through the breathing air cooler.

Both the minimum valve, which enriches the breathing air with additional oxygen upon demand and its attachment clip have been treated with a special coating to protect against corrosion. A redesigned clip simplifies the fitting of the valve. The area around the pressure reducer has been reinforced and additional reinforcement protects the carrying plate, providing greater stability when handling the unit complete with oxygen cylinder. To reduce the temperature of the inhaled air and minimize physical stress to the wearer, the breathing air cooler can be filled with ice.

Newly developed heat protection for the breathing hose and housing are also optionally available to further reduce the temperature of the inhaled air. A T-piece with water trap can be retrofitted to the facemask to prevent water from collecting in the flow are of the device. Any liquid discharged into the breathing circuit from the drain valve is optionally collected in a super absorbent fleece. The fleece is designed for single use and is easily disposed.

Simple CO2 disposal complete with integral dust filter, the flow sensitive CO2 absorber is available as either a single use absorber or refillable cartridge. Fitted with a newly designed spring clip, the CO2 absorber offers increased spring durability. The position and size of the breathing hose connectors have also been optimized for easier handling during assembly. For hygienic storage the single use absorbers are available in a sealed bag.

The ergonomically shaped carrying plate, the low weight and the proven harness with adjustable shoulder straps and easy to use "pull forward" design provide more freedom of movement with less effort. The practical breathing hose routing across the shoulders ensures optimum balance on the wearer's back.

The data captured by the Draeger Sentinel II electronic monitoring unit can be transmitted to the Draeger Merlin telemetry boards. This electronic monitoring and communications system displays Sentinel II data for each of the wearers who are logged on. As a result, entry control personnel are able to view the current status of each of the device wearers and can respond immediately to an emergency.

The Draeger PSS BG 4 Plus is equipped with the Draeger BodyGuard II fully electronic signal and warning unit. Controlled via larger push buttons, it combines a multitude of functions. During use it quickly provides the wearer with important information, thereby reducing the risk potential. Using battery warning thresholds the Draeger BodyGuard II reliably indicates current operational status.

Monitoring Functions

• Cylinder pressure (analog & digital)
• Remaining duration of use (time remaining unit residual pressure warning)
• Temperature indication upon the press of a button
• Automatic recording of all mission data

Optical and Acoustic Warning Signals

• Residual pressure warning
• Two additional selectable electronic alarm thresholds
• Automatic alarm for lack of movement
• Manual emergency call alarm

Dragersorb 400 has been specially designed for the absorption of CO2 in closed circuit breathing apparatus which significantly contributes to long term performance capabilities, especially under the likely conditions of use for the Draeger PSS BG 4 Plus.

Both retrofittable vibration protection and the robustly designed locking hinge increase the safety of the Draeger PSS BG 4 Plus during transportation. For maximum operational readiness, the Draeger PSS BG 4 Plus has been designed to allow the fast assembly and/or removal of device components without special tools.

The full face mask Draeger FPS 7000 ideally complements the Draeger Panorama Nova product family. With an improved head harness and available in various sizes, it adjusts perfectly to every face shape. With its dual sealing line, the almost natural field of view and easy to operate wiper, guarantees a safe tight fit and good all round visibility. An optional adapter enables the connection to the comfortable CamelBak drinking system. Liquid only flows through the straw when the integrated biting valve is pressed together with teeth.
