Oxygen Candle (Rescueair)
The
concept of an Oxygen Candle was developed by the military
to provide oxygen for personnel in submarines.
The unit
has been installed in refuge stations at mines. It provides
a ready source of breathable oxygen. The canister is small,
lightweight, portable, and extremely durable. Each candle
is self-contained and weighs only 15kg.
The unit
is sealed in a stainless steel enclosure with a manufacturers
warranty of 10 years. When activated it generates 2900L of
99% pure oxygen within 30-45 minutes, which equates to 100
man-hours of oxygen.
It can
be located in self-rescuer changeover stations to allow personnel
to breathe pure generated oxygen and explore their options
for escape before donning cached escape rescuers.
