Spiromatic 90-U, High performance Breathing Apparatus.

(Cylinder not included in price) 

A new generation of the first SCBA ever approved to EN136/137

Spiromatic 90 has a variety of optional harness and cylinder configurations; with accessories for umbilical attachment, intrinsically safe radio communications and 'Head-up' control displays. It is often best to select only the accessories that suitably fit your risk assessment. Don't buy add-ons that you are unlikely to use.

This basic version does not provide an 'extra-air' point, or umbilical attachment; but this can be added from after-market accessories. The cylinder band is provided by a webbing strap, which tightens on a 'cam-lock' buckle; which adjusts to a range of cylinder types and sizes.

The harness is of conventional, belt and two shoulder strap design, with individual adjustment on each of three points. On all of them, are provided ample arrangement for attaching Distress Signal Units, torches and 'extra' air connections, so that, very easily, the kit lends itself to use from airlines (umbilical supply) without fuss - and for deep penetration jobs, of course the Self-contained cylinder acts as emergency, or escape air.

Common cylinder sizes, used with this kit, include: 207 bar, 6 litre; 207 bar, 7 litre; 300 bar 6 litre- all in lightweight, Manganese-Molybdenum-Chrome steel alloy and a further range of (very expensive) composite, Carbon-Fibre-reinforced plastic cylinders; saving some further weight.

The free air, delivered from these cylinders varies thus, between 1200 litres and 2400 litres, thus offering typical duration times between 30 and 60 minutes. Cylinders are quick and easy to change, using industry-standard, EN144/DIN477 valve fittings. Incidentally, the Interspiro cylinder valve not only has safety mechanisms preventing accidental closure. It is fully, pneumatically balanced, meaning that control is fast, easy and safe from the vagaries of  the 'graunching', so common with other designs!

These features add up to 'bullet-proof' performance and reliability at a price no higher than an ordinary BA set. This brand is by far the most economic in spares and repairs, duty for duty.

Designed by the inventors of Positive Pressure Breathing apparatus, AGA, you might rightly expect excellent performance from designs patented by one of what was the largest gas and medical engineering companies, in the World.
