How Does it Work?
HEAD Set utilises “chemical oxygen”, Potassium Superoxide (KO²), to generate oxygen and allow carbon dioxide (CO²) to be removed. The initial start up phase incorporates a chlorate candle that is activated as the set is donned and the self-test alarm procedure. The wearer exhales through the generators so commencing the generation of oxygen and removal of CO².

HEAD Sets are vacuum-sealed in an aluminium foil container. An indicator provides the user with a simple visual check on the integrity and condition of the unit. This novel packaging system allows the unit to be stored for an initial six years and for a further three year period following a satisfactory validation/re-certification test.
