Questions & Answers — Marine Breathing Apparatus
What is a marine breathing apparatus?
A marine breathing apparatus is safety equipment that supplies clean, breathable air during onboard emergencies such as fires, smoke accumulation, or toxic gas leaks. It is used for evacuation or emergency intervention in hazardous environments.
What is the difference between EEBD and SCBA?
An EEBD (Emergency Escape Breathing Device) is designed only for evacuation and provides a limited air supply, typically up to 15 minutes.
A SCBA (Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus) is used for active firefighting and rescue operations, supplying compressed air to trained personnel.
Is breathing apparatus mandatory under SOLAS regulations?
Yes. EEBDs are mandatory under SOLAS Chapter II-2 for ships operating on international voyages. SCBA systems are required depending on vessel type, size, and fire safety arrangements.
How long does an EEBD provide breathable air?
Most EEBDs, including LALIZAS ESCAPE-15, provide approximately 15 minutes of steady airflow, sufficient for safe evacuation from smoke-filled compartments.
When is a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) required on board?
SCBA systems are required when crew members must actively respond to fires or enter smoke-filled or contaminated areas, such as engine rooms or enclosed spaces.
Do vessels need a compressor for breathing apparatus systems?
Vessels equipped with SCBA systems are strongly recommended to have a high-pressure air compressor, allowing onboard refilling of cylinders and ensuring continuous operational readiness.
High-Pressure Compressors & Air Supply Equipment
Maintaining operational readiness of breathing apparatus requires reliable air refilling solutions. The category also includes high-pressure compressors, such as the MISTRAL M6-ET (300 bar), designed for marine and offshore environments.
We also supply compressed air cylinders, valves, spare parts, and protective covers, ensuring full lifecycle support.
