When it comes to making smart fireground decisions,
firefighters need to have the right training tools available to adequately
prepare ahead of time. In some cases, a lack of structure fires gives
firefighters less live-fire experience to draw upon when it matters most, which
makes the importance of training simulators much more relevant.
Navigating smoke-filled environments demands extra
preparation and situational awareness, which why firefighters need to rely on
the new MASKhaze
Simulated Smoke Training Tool to ensure they’re prepared for the
unexpected. Here’s why:
Ideal for teaching and practicing how to see and safely
navigate through smoke-filled environments, the MASKhaze Simulated Smoke
Training Tool is the safest, most realistic smoke simulator to use for RIT,
search and rescue, and mayday training. To use it, simply apply it to a
compatible SCBA mask by sticking the center of its film to the top-center
portion of the mask’s lens – be sure to clear away any lingering dust from the
mask’s lens first.
Once it’s in place, just lightly press down on the film to
properly secure it. Once secured, firefighters can accurately experience the
dimly lit conditions that heavy smoke helps to create. It’s safe, realistic,
and easy-to-use.
Removal is just as easy and efficient: Ensure the MASKhaze
Simulated Smoke Training Tool’s paper backing is ready. Then, utilize a
conveniently located upper-finger tab to pull it off the SCBA lens at a
downward angle across your face. Once this is completed, apply it to its paper
backing, and then store it in a dry place until it’s needed again.
The MASKhaze Simulated Smoke Training Tool’s adhesive can be
reapplied up to three times, depending on how many times it’s worn and
subsequently stored between uses. Additional specs include the following:
- variations: fits Scout 3000, fits Drager FPS-7000, fits MSA Ultra Elite, fits Interspiro Spiromatic S8, fits MSA G1
- quantities available: 10 packs, 25 packs, 50 packs
