Fast-cowl is one of the most preferred EEBA from our family of products.
FAST-cowl is a positive pressure, self-contained, open circuit, compressed air EEBA for Personnel with Facial Hair. It gets instantly activated when the face mask is deployed from the carrying bag, the head harness automatically inflates, and at the same time purges the mask of any traces of hazardous gas.
Ideal for personnel with beard, Fast-cowl provides a much higher protection factor performance compared to its nearest counterpart Fast-mask – the second most preferred Emergency Escape Breathing Apparatus from our family of products.
