Throughout industry, breathing apparatus is relied upon to perform reliably and consistently in a wide variety of workplace environments. The Draeger PAS Lite has been developed to meet the fundamental needs for self contained, supplied air complete with carrying harness in industrial and industrial firefighting applications. Light in weight, it is comfortable to wear, easy to use and ensures reliable performance. Requiring minimal training, the simplicity of its design also offers significant benefits to those who do not wear breathing apparatus on a regular basis.
With a proven design and using the same high quality pneumatics as sound in professional firefighter breathing apparatus, the Draeger PAS Lite ensures consistent high performance and reliability over the lifetime of the apparatus with minimal maintenance. The carrying system features an ultra lightweight, high strength carbon composite space-frame having excellent impact, heat and chemical resistance, as well as outstanding durability.
Incorporating new materials that are shaped and formed to provide maximum comfort at both the shoulders and the waist, the carrying system has been developed to reduce back strain, stress and fatigue. The innovative harness design ensures an excellent weight distribution at the shoulders. The inclusion of durable rubber coated fabric provides excellent wearing comfort and chemical resistance, whilst also performing well during the flame engulfment test in line with EN137 Type 2.
Both the air supply and gauge hoses are mounted into the space frame, thus reducing the risk of snagging and entanglement. This enables the user to change the hose position from one side to another to suit individual preference. The fully integrated hose design also means that hoses can be replaced easily and cost effectively.
A number of unique design features ensure that downtime and costs are kept to a minimum during repair and maintenance. All major components of the Draeger PAS Lite are quick and easy to assemble and disassemble, including the harness which is attached to the space frame by a simple single piece retention method. The reducer is contained in the space frame for added protection and can easily be removed with simple tools. The harness is also highly resistant and impervious to chemicals, making decontamination and cleaning a simple, straight forward task.
