An improved safety device for a self-contained breathing apparatus, and an improved self-contained breathing apparatus having thermal imaging capabilities.

Self-contained breathing apparatus with thermal imaging capabilities

A fall detection system includes at least one sensor configured to detect acceleration and orientation of a host, at least one indicator device having an alarm mode, and a controller operatively connected to the at least one sensor and the at least one indicator device. The controller is programmed to receive data generated by the at least one sensor, compare at least a portion of the received data with at least one specified parameter indicative of a fall event, and, based on the comparison, activating the at least one indicator device to enter the alarm mode. The at least one specified parameter includes at least one of the following: an acceleration exceeding a predetermined threshold, a change between a starting and a final orientation of the host before and after an acceleration event, a lack of movement of the host for a predetermined time after the acceleration event, or any combination thereof.

Fall detection system

A breathing system includes a tank for pressurized breathing gas, at least one regulator comprising a connection to which the tank is attachable, a universal air connector in fluid connection with the connection, and at least one light source, the light source, when illuminated, providing a guide to connect a connector in fluid connection with a secondary tank to the universal air connector to supply breathing gas to the tank.
