SavOx Chemical Oxygen Self-Rescuer

Fast escape in case of hazardous concentrations of toxic gases or oxygen deficiency

Application

The Chemical Oxygen Self-Rescuer SavOx is a self-contained respiratory protective escape device. It is ideal for all escape applications wherever toxic gases, particles or oxygen deficiency must be expected suddenly. Perfect areas of applications are: Breweries, Escape/Rescue Chambers, Hazmat Transport, Mining, Nuclear Power Plants, Oil-Platforms, On Board Escape, Petrochemical Industries, Power Plants, Rescue Services, Silos, Surface Mining, Tunnel Construction, Water Locks Areas, Water Treatment, Water Utilities, Waste Sites. The SavOx is always ready for use in an emergency situation without requiring costly maintenance. With its small size and low weight, the SavOx can be carried along constantly on the person ensuring the escape set is always within hands reach. Donning and use can easily and economically be trained with the training version SavOx TR with exchangeable mouth piece connector and without consuming a chemical canister. 

A unique double heat-exchanger system reduces the in-halation air temperature to a comfortable level. The escape goggles, though small, provide excellent fit and good vision. The SavOx has an antistatic breathing bag. The SavOx is almost maintenance-free and the life expectancy is up to max. 10 years. The achievable service life depends on the type and kind of treatment to which the apparatus were subject.

Design and Function

The indicator window shows with its blue segment the ready for use status of the SavOx. Donning and starting up for use are very easy and done within seconds. SavOx supplies sufficient oxygen to the user for at least 30 minutes duration (EN 13794). The principle of generating oxygen from the chemical potassium superoxide (KO2) provides an oxygen supply controlled by the user’s consumption. The oxygen supply always adjusts itself to the demand. The possible service time of the apparatus is controlled by the breathing intensity of the user. An automatic starter supplies additional oxygen for the initial breathing phase.
