New Product Alert: MineARC DEZEGA Ci-30 KS Self-Contained Self-Rescuer

HEATLEYS NOW STOCK THE MINEARC DEZEGA Ci-30 KS SELF-CONTAINED SELF-RESCUER  

The MineARC DEZEGA Ci-30 KS is a closed-circuit breathing apparatus designed specifically for underground mining to ensure the user does not inhale outside gases after donning. This life saving equipment is housed in a ruggedised, anti-deformation casing to ensure it is kept free from damage, particularly when in the mines with narrow passageways and highly abrasive surfaces.

So how does it work?

The MineARC DEZEGA Ci-30 KS Self-Contained Self-Rescuer is a portable waist-worn SCRS and is made for markets that accept the European and Australian Standards. It contains a cartridge where chemically bound oxygen reacts with carbon dioxide exhaled by the user; ultimately absorbing the CO2 and allowing breathable air to circulate within the device.

The Ci-30 KS features an automatic starter in which oxygen generation begins automatically when the self-rescuer is donned, and exhalation is detected.

At the top of the unit there is a moisture indicator. Should the indicator change colour from blue to pink it is a sign that moisture has infiltrated the capsule which can result in a risk of case leakage and untimely cartridge activation. It is important to check the self-rescuer with a DEZEGA testing unit to ensure this does not occur when the user is an emergency.

This self-rescuer comes equipped with protective goggles that have an anti-fogging coating to help improve vision during an escape where there is dense smoke or irritating gas emissions present.
