RPB Compressed-Air Breathing Kits

RPB's Astro (left) and Nova (right) compressed-air breathing kits include all the parts required to filter air delivered from a compressor feed line.  Both systems, when properly maintained, supply grade "D" air to the operator.  A carbon monoxide monitor, required by OSHA, is sold separately.  These systems do not remove carbon monoxide, a potentially lethal gas, from air supplied by the compressor.

Free Air Pumps

Free-air pumps mitigate carbon-monoxide hazards by drawing on ambient air instead of air from a compressor.  Nevertheless, the intake ports on these pumps must be kept away from harmful gases to assure operator safety.  Empire offers pumps from RPB and Bullard® with one, two and four operator feeds.
