Protection covered

Whether involved in a road incident,
civil disaster or terrorist attack,
emergency services personnel are
increasingly having to detect a wide
range of hazardous chemical and
biological agents – and protect both
themselves and others against them.

To meet these demands Draeger
now offers a host of gas detection,
escape, chemical protection and
breathing apparatus solutions.
Examples include: The Draeger
PacEx2 explosive gas and oxygen
monitor which can be used with
minimal training; the Draeger Civil
Defence Set (CDS) which can detect
up to eight chemical substances for
on-the-spot detection of nerve,
blood, lung, nose and throat
irritating agents and the Draeger
Parat C Escape Hood which can aid
an escape by providing up to 15
minutes of breathable air.

For instances when all-round,
complete protection is needed
Draeger’s chemical protection suits
can be worn for long periods in
addition to the decontamination
phase; breathing apparatus and
helmets can be worn inside or
outside the suits.

Draeger also offers a wide range of
ergonomically designed, compressed
air breathing apparatus (CABA) for
use in a firefighting applications.
