With a wide range of configurable options the PSS 5000 provides comfort and versatility to meet the demands of first responders wherever breathing protection is required.
Features
- Unimpeded, 360° audio and visual availability
- Outstanding thermal, impact and chemical resistance
- Easy maintenance and service
- Integrated, versatile hose routing
- Wide variety of system configurations and accessories
- Electronic monitoring with the Draeger Sentinel 7000
The PSS 5000 is designed not only to be comfortable, but also extremely rugged for harsh firefighting environments. Incorporating a rigid harness connected to a fixed height back plate, state of the art harness materials and a pivoting waist belt help to keep the PSS 5000 in position in the commotion of a firefight. For maximum protection, the Draeger Sentinel 7000 has an innovative, compact design that integrates the power supply and pressure sensor modules into the back plate, creating a balanced weight distribution. The Draeger PSS pneumatics and cylinder strap design create SCBA support that's effective in virtually any application.
The advanced harness is designed to suit the needs of any firefighter. The PSS 5000 harness is made of a tough chloroprene rubber material, which is designed to withstand the high wear and tear that firefighters face daily, while still providing an enhanced level of comfort and functionality. Incorporating heavy duty stainless steel buckles and long life Aramid blend webbing this harness is ideally suited for extended wear and frequent use.
Both the Draeger Sentinel 7000 and air supply hoses on the PSS 5000 are integrated into the back plate to minimize the risk of damage and snagging. The LDV, Draeger Sentinel 7000 and rescue hoses can also be routed over the left and/or right shoulders (two hoses per side), making the harness even more customizable and streamlined. Conventional waist mounted hoses can also be fitted to make the Draeger PSS 5000 one of the most versatile harnesses available.
The Draeger PSS 5000 keeps downtime and costs to a minimum during service and upkeep:
- Innovative harness "slide and lock" mechanism makes assembly and disassembly fast and simple
- Harness detaches from the back plate without the use of tools
- First stage reducer snap fit connection allows pneumatics to be fitted or removed quickly and easily
- Hose clips push in and out to allow swift removal of hoses from the harness pads for cleaning; no need to remove the clip
- Closed, single piece harness and waist pad design prevent excessive water absorption and reduces cleaning and drying time
- Integrated hoses in the backplate, integrated amplications, heads up display (HUD) in the FPS 7000 facepiece and a lifetime warranty on the first and second stage reducers all lower the total cost of ownership for the customer over the life of the SCBA
Draeger has created a wide range of components that can be used in combination with the PSS 5000 including:
- Draeger electronic monitoring
- Quick-Connect (QC) cylinder connection
- ChargAir quick filling
- Secondary supply connections for rescue, decontamination and/or airline use
The Draeger PSS 5000 is fully compatible with the Draeger Sentinel 7000 electronic signal and warning guage. With the Sentinel 7000 real time information such as time to whistle and cylinder pressure appears on a lightweight, handheld electronic gauge display and/or a facemask mounted HUD. You can easily monitor:
- Accurate, continuously updated air time remaining
- Digital display of cylinder pressure
- Time to whistle (based on current air consumption)
- Visual and acoustic warnings and alarms (102 to 112 dBA)
To make the readouts even easier to view, the Draeger Sentinel 7000 and HUD feature:
- Intuitive push button operation
- Configurable settings to suit individual preferences
