Product Information
More than 113 years of competence and experience in the field of breathing apparatus and Personal Protective Equipment made it possible for MSA to develop the AirElite 4h. Together with its integrated control monitor IC-Air it forms a unique closed-circuit breathing apparatus. Now all the benefits of the KO2 principle are available for long service periods of up to four hours.
In cooperation with the accredited testing body EXAM, all needs of mine rescue teams and fire brigades were analysed and taken into consideration. The main applications are tunnels, large storage facilities and high-rise buildings.
Simple - before and after use
▪ Effective air cooling without ice and without pre-use preparation
▪ No additional logistics required for oxygen cylinders or cooling
▪ Minimal inspection requirements: quick, easy maintenance and reconditioning
▪ Maintenance-free standby storage for up to 2 years in readiness [5 years if canisters are in factory sealed condition]
Economical - training
▪ Practically no costs for training with trainer conversion kit
▪ No breathing canister consumption
Low cost of ownership
AirElite 4h does not require any additional logistics such as expensive testing equipment, oxygen transfer pumps or deep freezers. Compressed oxygen and ice candle logistics are not necessary; this reduces the investment and maintenance costs of the AirElite 4h to a minimum.
