Respiratory Protective Devices - Self-Contained Closed-Circuit Breathing Apparatus Compressed Oxygen or Compressed Oxygen-Nitrogen Type - Requirements, Testing, Marking (Includes Amendment A1:2000)
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 145 standard focuses on establishing the minimum criteria for self-contained closed-circuit breathing apparatus. These devices are intended to provide respiratory protection in environments where the presence of oxygen or oxygen-nitrogen mixture is a concern. The standard specifically excludes escape apparatus and diving apparatus from its scope.
The standard aims to ensure that the mentioned breathing apparatus meet certain performance and safety requirements. This includes testing the devices to validate their ability to provide a continuous supply of oxygen or oxygen-nitrogen mixture to the user, as well as their suitability for use in different working conditions. There are also requirements for the marking of these devices to provide necessary information to the users.
