Test bench meet stringent NFPA standards

Quick Specs
Size (excluding head): Height 14.1 inches; Width 13.5 inches; Depth 16.0 inches
Weight (excluding head) 34 pounds
Operating Temperature 41ºF to 113ºF 

Storage Temperature 14ºF to 113ºF

Product Overview
The PosiChek family of SCBA test equipment has been the industry standard for thousands of fire departments, refineries, chemical plants and nuclear power stations worldwide since it was first introduced in 1988. The new Posi 3 USB incorporates a number of hardware and software improvements suggested by our customers to keep pace with increasingly rigorous testing criteria.
NFPA 1852 mandates that all compliant SCBA be tested on a calibrated breathing machine before being put into service, and at least once per year thereafter. Posi 3 USB meets the same stringent NFPA standards as PosiChek3.
Additional Features and Benefits:
Posi 3 USB Performs Full Readiness Testing

Facepiece leak check
Exhalation check valve opening pressure
Static facepiece pressure
Bypass flow rate
Pressure gauge accuracy
Low pressure alarm activation
First stage regulator performance
Breathing resistance at standard (40 LPM)
Breathing resistance at maximum (100 LPM)
Minimum PC System Requirements

Windows XP to Windows 7, 32 or 64 bit (Please call to find out which versions are currently available for 64-bit.)
Pentium 4 processor 2.0 GHz or higher
512 MB Ram
50 Mb of available space on hard drive
USB 2.0 port and CD-ROM Drive
