Dräger Escape Hoods Parat 5520
The Escape Hoods are exceptionally intuitive and easy to use as it requires no additional equipment. When opening the packaging, the filter plug is automatically released from the filter. The filter is then deployed into operational position and the hood can be immediately donned. This is given to those needing to leave an area where there is toxic fire-related gases, vapours and particles.
