swiss air PAPR – breathing without limits

Lung protection is becoming increasingly important on construction sites. Mandatory precautions such as innovative and comfortable respiratory protection systems are therefore a must, especially for longer operating times. The revolutionary swiss air respiratory protection from optrel offers an ideal solution.
There is danger in the air
Moderate to high levels of smoke, gases, vapours, and fine dust are not uncommon. These pollutant emissions can very easily enter the lungs and cause coughing, shortness of breath, bronchitis, and in the long term, even pulmonary fibrosis or silicosis. Employees should definitely be protected from this with comfortable half masks and clever filter technologies.
Safety never felt so comfortable
The swiss air supplies users with clean, purified air thanks to its integrated blower system and highly efficient filters. The positive pressure in its half mask made of high-tech fabric supports breathing and counteracts fatigue. So forced breaks due to the fatigue caused by conventional dust masks breathing resistance are a thing of the past! Thanks to the overpressure system, the mask also does not have to fit tightly, no fit tests are required, and beards don’t need to be shaved. Moreover, the cooling fresh air reduces sweating to keep focus on work. For certain jobs, the swiss air can even be combined with a silicone mask.
User- and eco-friendly technology
To ensure reliable and safe respiratory protection at all times, the control panel of the swiss air shows you both the filter contamination and the battery capacity. Beside the initial investment, only the filters need to be changed on a regular basis depending on the dust load. By using filters instead of conventional dust masks, waste gets reduced and the sustainability of the company is being increased. Making the swiss air a product, that offers great value for money not only in performance, but also in assisting company goals.
Ultra-lightweight and flexible
Thanks to the ergonomic harness and low weight of the swiss air, construction workers can move freely, hardly noticing their respiratory protection system. The PAPR also works independently from other headgear, hearing protection, or safety goggles. Finally, with the protection cover available as an accessory, it can be used in any weather. Even in the rain.
