3M Science of Safety

Episode 99: Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA)

15 Jul 2021

Description

When you need to work in environments where breathing the air could prove to be hazardous - even fatal - and filtering that air simply won't guarantee you safe supply, you might have to carry your own air with you. SCBA (Self-Contained breathing Apparatus) allows you to create a portable, safe, clean air solution, and can provide. If fitted properly, maintained and used with the right training and preparation a SCBA rig can allow workers to get the job done in otherwise impossible environments. In this episode, 3M specialist, Kevin McComb covers all the aspects you need to be aware of and consider when it comes to SCBA; when you may need to choose this solution, how it compares with other air-purifying or clean air supplied options, what components make up an SCBA, appropriate training, use, care and maintenance or this vital piece of PPE.
