What should you use an EEBD for?

An EEBD is designed to provide a short, breathable air supply so you can quickly escape a hazardous atmosphere. Its purpose is emergency escape from smoke-filled or toxic environments, allowing you to reach fresh air without suffocating or becoming overwhelmed. It isn’t meant for fighting fires, for training, or for breathing during routine tasks, because the air supply is limited and not suitable for prolonged use or sustained work. For longer protection or active firefighting, other equipment such as a full-face SCBA would be used.
