Emergency escape breathing units that can not only filter the air but can actually create oxygen without the need for oxygen tanks have been available for a half-century and are commonplace in the mining industry and the military. However, those devices are rather heavy and can cost well over $2,000 apiece.
Now, Soteria is offering the same technology in a small, patented, hand-held unit, for just $199.95 per unit. This self-contained device converts the carbon dioxide and moisture in your breath into oxygen, and nothing from the outside air gets into the breathing system.
Soteria is offering a complete kit, which includes the emergency escape respirator with reflective stripes, goggles, a nose clip and an emergency LED light. The total package measures just 12” X 6.75” X 3.5”. This compact, light-weight, portable system provides oxygenated air for 30 minutes, isolating the user from hazardous environments, including smoke and chemicals.
Soteria’s Emergency Escape Kits are invaluable for those living or working in high-rise buildings, those who are disabled or infirm and must wait for assistance to escape from fires or other similar situations, or those who might have to enter such situations to rescue someone.
Soteria is currently working on the development of a 60+ minute, NIOSH approved commercial unit.
