EmSCAPE Emergency escape hood

Product information "EmSCAPE Emergency escape hood"


Chemical self-rescuers (EmSCAPE, Carbo 30 + 60)generate oxygen through a chemical reaction in an oxygen generator inside the device. Single-use escape devices are used only in emergencies to leave a hazardous area (e.g. in the presence of smoke, toxic gases, or oxygen deficiency) (30 minutes escape time or up to 90 minutes in rescue mode).

Escape devices operate on the principle of the closed circuit (regenerative apparatus): when breathing through a mouthpiece into a breathing hose, the exhaled air is collected in the breathing bag and re-enriched with oxygen by a regeneration cartridge containing potassium superoxide. Inhalation through the nose, which could allow harmful substances to enter, is prevented by a nose clip.

The devices EmSCAPE, Carbo 30 & Carbo 60 are suitable for:

  • Emergency evacuation, e.g. in oil and gas facilities
  • Escape from contaminated areas
  • Persons responsible for fire safety when organizing an evacuation
  • Rescue of patients

  • K-KO2 as oxygen source completely isolates the user from ambient air
