Protective cabin crew smoke hood

Its original design ensures that no adjustments need to be made to an oro-nasal mask and gives precious extra seconds in operational circumstances. Fewer than 8 seconds are required to take the hood out of its box, rip open its sealed cover and put it over the head. The hood does not need to be adjusted once it is put on. This single size equipment adapts to all face configurations.

The equipment is self-sufficient and operates as a closed circuit. As soon as it is put on, it automatically delivers oxygen. It neutralizes the CO2 breathed out (soda lime cartridge) and guarantees the user 15 minutes of operating time. A speech diaphragm facilitates communication with all available on board resources. The hood is also certified to protect against hypoxia (holding Civil Aviation Qualification QAC168), up to 25000 ft.

The hood is made of Nomex fabric which provides optimum protection in the event of fire. The polycarbonate visor treated with an anti-fog and anti-scratching coating provides unparalleled visibility.
