Emergency Escape Breathing Device

Emergency Escape Breathing Device known as EEBD, is an open-circuit compressed air brething apparatus with a hood for escape with 15min duration.

  • Hood with mouth-nose mask and exhaust valve
  • Medium-pressure guide tube
  • Compressed air cylinder with pressure gauge
  • Pressure reducer valve
  • Constant reading pressure gauge
  • Carrying bag with harness strap

EEBD provides personal breathing protection during escape from a compartment that has a hazardous atmosphere. Not to be used for fire fighting or when entering oxygen deficient tanks or voids, or worn by fire fighters.

Description

Introduction:

The Emergency Escape Breathing Device (EEBD) is a mandatory portable respiratory escape appliance for seagoing vessels, fully compliant with SOLAS and the FSS (Fire‑Safety Systems) Code. It supplies short‑term breathable air to help crew evacuate quickly from smoke‑filled, toxic‑gas or oxygen‑deficient hazardous compartments such as engine‑rooms during shipboard fire emergencies.
