If there is a fire in a building, the fire brigade must act quickly. Even before the targeted firefighting, the main focus is on rescuing people. The fire escape bag from PAX Bags is a valuable tool for the evacuation of building occupants.
Efficient evacuation in case of fire
During an internal attack, the protective effect against toxic fire gases has the highest priority. This applies both to the squad fighting the fire and to the protection of evacuated persons. In the event of a fire in a flat or building, the aim is to get people out of danger as quickly as possible. safety as quickly as possible. The problem: Often, each squad only carries one fire escape bonnet. The PAX fire escape bonnet bag expands the possibilities of each advancing squad. After all, the bag holds two fire escape bonnets which, as self-contained breathing apparatus, have a short-term protective effect against toxic fire gases and thus open a time window for rescuing occupants through smoke-filled areas. The second escape bonnet allows more people to leave the danger zone at the same time.
Can be used as an emergency bag
In the event of a fire, it is not only the occupants of the house who are in danger. Advancing troops can also get into an emergency situation due to a respiratory emergency. Used as an emergency bag, the fire escape hood bag from PAX is a useful piece of equipment for every safety squad and the rescue of persons by breathing apparatus.
In this way, two escape bonnets are ready to take care of an entire injured squad at once. But the robust bag also provides valuable services for self-rescue according to DIN EN 403, in order to minimise the danger of smoke poisoning for the advancing squad in case of a defect.
Robust, easy to clean and ergonomic
The spacious fire escape bonnet bag has two stable compartments in which common escape bonnets can be stored. The top-loader feature makes handling particularly easy, not only when loading. Even in critical situations, the escape bonnets are ready for use in the blink of an eye, even when wearing thick fire protection gloves with zero visibility.
Handling is supported by the eye-catching design. Thanks to silver reflective stripes and the basic colour of fluorescent orange, the bag catches the eye even in dark and heavily smoky rooms. At the same time, the sturdy Velcro fastener prevents accidental opening, while the adjustable shoulder strap makes it easy to carry even when wearing full PPE.
The overall concept is rounded off by the PAX-Tec material developed by PAX. This brings together the distinctive properties of PAX-Dura and PAX-Plan with extreme durability and easy cleaning. The mixture of polyester fibres and polyurethane is extremely robust in the face of mechanical stimuli and yet can be easily cleaned of dirt and fire residues.
