Escape hoods
25 March 2014
Dräger has launched its re-engineered escape hood portfolio - the Parat series.

The escape hoods are quick and easy to use, protecting users in the chemical industry from toxic industrial and fire-related gases, vapours and particles for at least 15 minutes in three simple steps: open packaging, remove hood and put it on.
All hoods have a protective seal on the opening of the packaging to indicate whether it has been opened. The filter is sealed tightly with two filter plugs and once the packaging is opened, the filter plugs are automatically released and the hood is ready for use.
