May 31, 2004—EVAC-U8 has introduced an emergency escape smoke hood that will allow employees to breathe filtered air for 15 minutes.
To use, employees twist the lid off the canister, pull the hood on and breathe through the mouthpiece. Built into the canister is a multi-stage, air-purifying, chemical catalytic filter that removes carbon monoxide and other deadly gases present in fire.
EVAC-U8s transparent Kapton heat-resistant hood, protects eyes and head from transient flame, allowing employees to see and hear. Its mouthpiece and unique airflow design make it resistant to edge leakage.
Slightly larger than a beverage can, the canister features a powerful luminescent bottom to help employees find it in dark and ]helps others find you.
It requires little training, maintenance and no fit testing is required. For more information, contact EVAC-U8.
