APPLICATIONS:
FEATURES:
Maintains breathing pressure in the facemask above external ambient
pressure during both inhalation and exhalation breathing
cycles.
Resists the ingress of external atmospheric toxins into the
breathing gas of the BioPak.
Breathing gas is recycled to conserve oxygen and prolong
duration.
Closed-circuit operation limits potential leak points and prevents
the ingress of external atmospheric toxins.
Large tidal volume and low pressure drop throughout system results
in ease of breathing.
Extended duration over open-circuit design of identical mass:
Open-Circuit Duration: 45 – 60 minutes
Closed-Circuit Duration: 240 minutes
CLOSED-CIRCUIT OPERATION:
Eliminates user handling of caustic chemicals.
Eliminates user exposure to caustic dust.
Provides consistent fill resulting in consistent breathing
resistance
Non-Dusting
Non-Channeling
Non-Settling
3-year shelf life in factory packaging
1-year shelf life “pre-packed” into BioPak
ENHANCED SAFETY-SOLID CORE CARBON DIOXIDE SCRUBBER:
ENHANCED SAFETY-SYSTEM:
Static-Resistant Housing
Flame-Resistant Materials (click on square to see EN-137 flame
resistance testing)
Protected Diaphragm
Simplified System Interface
Permanent Anti-Fog
Reusable Coolant Modules
RAPID DEPLOYMENT:
Quick Make & Break Harness
Phase Change Heat Exchanger
Less Complicated Alarming System: Provides At-A-Glance recognition
of system status eliminating user confusion due to oversaturation
of data and avoiding costly alarming system breakdowns..
Lower Part Count: Fewer parts yields higher reliability, fewer
parts to test, disinfect and qualify.
Protected Breathing Chamber: Rubber diaphragm of system is
protected on all sides by hard plastic thus eliminating dangers of
puncture or tearing should the upper housing become
dislodged.
Historically Proven Pressure Regulator: The BioPak 240R pressure
regulator has over 40-years experience in both CCSCBA and SCUBA
applications without a demonstrated need for factory rebuilds or
calibration over its life time.
Proven Field Support: Biomarine and its Distributor Network take
pride in the post sale service and support provided to end users
through direct training, emergency support and product
support.
RELIABILITY:
Reduced part count for tear down, disinfection, reassembly and
testing.
Quick-release breathing loop for speed of tear down and
reassembly:
Two (2) pneumatic connections
One (1) electrical connection
REDUCED MAINTENANCE-LIFE:
No mandatory component replacement or re-calibration
Pressure regulator will last life of the BioPak.
Oxygen cylinder requires hydro-testing every 5-years, 15-year total
life
Tool kit provides all tools and equipment for all BioPak
service.
Optional tools available to enhance testing or speed maintenance
times:
Digital High Pressure Leak Detection
Mask Test Kit
Quantitative Fit Kits
Provides up to 1.5-liters of liquid storage.
Allows user hydration through face mask port without introduction
of external atmospheres that may contain toxins.
Bladder can stow on harness waist belt, strap to user leg or
secured in other manner.
Bladder can be removed and discarded in toxic zone without
introducing BioPak leaks or ingress of external atmosphere or
toxins.
Large bore feed tube provides ease of drawing liquid to user.
Hydration system will interface all BioPak mask types.
CUSTOMIZATION:
Biomarine is willing to customize in order to meet the needs of the
end user. Customization is limited by the quantities involved and
the impact upon third party agency approvals. Customization can
include, but is not limited to, the following:
BioPak 240R Modifications
SUPPORT:
User Training: Instructs users in the donning, normal use,
emergency use and doffing of the BioPak.
Benchman Training: Instructs in BioPak theory, maintenance, service
and troubleshooting.
Instructor Training: Instructs in BioPak User and Benchman training
theory.
Training Sites: Training can be conducted at the Biomarine factory
or at the end user cite.
Emergency Support: Provides end user manpower and equipment
supplies and support during emergency events.
Distributor Network: Provides direct face to face post sale product
and service support to end users.
Once a user becomes part of the Biomarine family they can rest
assured that Biomarine and the Distributor Network will attend to
all of their product, training and support needs.
FUTURE BIOPAK 240R DEVELOPMENTS:
Biomarine constantly strives to improve the BioPak 240R product
based upon inputs received from the field. End users are encouraged
to suggest improvements based their experience in actual field
utilization. Technology searches are constantly conducted by the
Biomarine Research and Design teams . Once a new technology is
found to be plausible in the BioPak 240R design, the Biomarine
Engineering Group works to incorporate the new technology in a
manner that will be favorable to field retro-fit.
Lighter and Stronger Materials
Carbon Dioxide Capture Technologies
Ergonomic Technologies
End user input and satisfaction is the driving force behind all
Biomarine designs and product implementations.
