ABSTRACT:
Emergency breathing equipment intended to provide short term life support by ducting breathable gas from a small capacity source to a user via a restricted flow path that allows only limited flow rates so as to prevent hyperventilation and wastage of breathable gas is characterised by a demand valve having the poppet controlled by a demand pressure-sensing diaphragm to control an inhalation flow path, the diaphragm also controlling an exhalation flow path so as to switch the user between said flow paths by opening one and closing the other, as it moves between two positions under the influence of demand pressure. The equipment is also characterised by a reactive pressure regulator for the breathable gas and having its delivery pressure switchable by a trigger element that in an installed position unloads the reaction member so as to provide zero delivery pressure, withdrawal of the trigger element allowing the reaction load to operate to set a fixed positive delivery pressure.
