Dräger is also unveiling its next-generation Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA), the PSS AirBoss, which incorporates a Type 4 Nano cylinder.
Further enhancing safety and coordination, the new FireGround accountability system allows teams to effectively monitor and communicate during incidents involving active SCBA users, utilizing an optimized entry control board (ECB).
Enhanced Visibility with Thermal Imaging
An integral part of Dräger’s showcase is the UCF FireCore, a hands-free thermal imaging camera. This device, acknowledged as Innovation of the Year at ESS 2024, integrates with Dräger's FPS 7000 full face mask to provide live-action imagery.
It allows firefighters to maintain visibility in challenging environments often characterized by low visibility and high risk.
Innovative Safety Solutions
