Description
Summary:Respiratory protection devices, both compressed air and compressed oxygen based, are subject to certification for placing on the market. The European standards governing the requirements for certification, the manner of conducting the tests are reviewed periodically in order to increase the operational safety of respiratory apparatus in order to cope in any circumstances with the dangers to which rescuers are subjected. The evaluation of the respiratory apparatus from a practical point of view is done by the practical test of performance. The modernization of the training facility according to the latest standardization regulations regarding the practical performance tests is necessary for the certification activity of the respiratory apparatus but it is also useful for the activity of training rescuers, having the role of harmonizing the request of the respiratory apparatus with the effort to which the rescuers are subjected.
