Drager PSS Airboss Scba Now Available for Purchase in North America Drager announced that the Drager PSS AirBoss Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) is now available for purchase in the United States through the company's network of Authorized Sales Partners. This milestone follows the AirBoss certification to the NFPA 1970 (2025 Edition) standards -- a certification announced in November 2025 -- making it one of the first new SCBAs to meet the fire service's latest safety requirements. U.S. fire departments can now order the AirBoss SCBA, confident they are acquiring a breathing Apparatus that was purpose-built for American firefighters. The Drager AirBoss SCBA delivers next-generation protection with enhanced ergonomics, streamlined controls, and high-visibility indicators designed for the demands of the modern American fireground. The SCBA's development followed a "Made for America" philosophy: from initial concept to final testing, American firefighters were directly involved in shaping the design of the AirBoss. Drager solicited feedback from fire departments across the country to ensure this SCBA reflects how U.S. crews operate. Firefighters demanded a better SCBA -- one that moves with them, supports their style of attack, and reduces stress in high-heat, high-intensity conditions -- and Drager's engineers answered by building the AirBoss around those real-world firefighting needs. rigorous U.S.-based field testing further validated the AirBoss in action, proving its durability and performance under the extreme conditions American firefighters face. Built for the Fireground: Key Features: The AirBoss was created for aggressive interior attack and long-duration missions, with performance-driven features including: Ergonomic "floating" waist belt keeps weight on the hips for better movement and balance; High-visibility indicators and reflective surfaces support quick accountability in smoke-filled environments; Muscle-memory flexibility -- left or right regulator and gauge placement based on department preference; Non-indexing regulator insertion for fast sealing under pressure; Rapid, tool-less disassembly simplifying cleaning in minutes rather than hours. The 2025 Edition of NFPA 1970 unifies multiple PPE standards into a single, more stringent benchmark for SCBA performance and firefighters safety. From product support to service delivery, AirBoss provides the backing U.S. departments expect -- with a growing network of regional service locations to maximize uptime and minimize turnaround.

Dräger Introduces NIOSH-Approved ProAir Drager unveiled the NIOSH-certified ProAir, an advanced closed-circuit breathing apparatus (CCBA) designed to provide a continuous oxygen supply for up to four hours. Leveraging over a century of expertise in breathing apparatus technology, this innovative solution is set to transform Federal Government operations in hazardous environments, including below-deck ship incidents, confined spaces, subterranean operations, and HAZMAT operations. The ProAir can enhance operational readiness for federal agencies, including the armed forces, law enforcement, emergency responders, and environmental protection agencies. By providing an uninterrupted oxygen supply, the ProAir enables personnel to focus on high-risk situations, such as search and rescue missions, decontamination efforts, and HAZMAT response, alongside other critical tasks. The ProAir represents a significant advancement in personal safety gear, providing extended respiratory protection under some of the most challenging conditions. Designed to complement traditional SCBAs, the ProAir maximizes operational capabilities by eliminating the need for frequent cylinder changes during prolonged engagements. This additional time helps federal personnel to consolidate focus, complete intricate tasks without interruption, confidently navigate lengthy routes, and handle emergencies without worrying about the clock. By maximizing crucial operational time, the ProAir helps federal teams carry out their missions, increasing the safety and efficiency of high-stakes scenarios. The ProAir incorporates a proprietary carbon dioxide scrubber embedded in a positive pressure breathing circuit. This technology efficiently removes carbon dioxide and enriches the air with oxygen, removing the reliance on bulky air cylinders. The new RFID chip on the canister enables the ProAir to track the soda lime's life. Simplifies Maintenance: Easy, tool-free disassembly and servicing of the CCBA. Delivers Instant Updates: View critical supply status and alerts--such as cylinder pressure and time toistle--on the palm-sized Electronic Control Unit (ECU). Enhances Communication: Stay connected with integrated radio features and voice amplification for clear communication in challenging environments. Tracks Usage: Leverage the built-in RFID chip to monitor soda lime life and streamline maintenance. Announcement • Feb 07

Drager Introduces the HPS SafeGuard Helmet Drager presents the Drager HPS SafeGuard Helmet. Meticulously designed for first responders, this helmet combines wearing comfort with rigorous safety protection. Tipping the scales at a mere 3.2 lbs., the HPS SafeGuard Helmet is engineered to ease the physical burden on the neck and shoulders. The result -- mobility, protection, and relief, aiding firefighters in taxing and dynamic environments. When wearing helmets, firefighters don more than just equipment; they put on essential lifelines. Be it a fire with towering flames or a technical rescue operation, firefighters need gear as robust as the challenges they confront. Supporting the head already places a 10-12 lb. weight on the neck and shoulders, a burden that only increases with conventional headgear. While unwavering companions in the field, there's room to admit traditional helmets can sometimes feel like a heavy crown during prolonged use. Additionally, a broad brim can expede a natural range of motion, making tasks less fluid than desired. Taking these considerations to heart, Drager's new helmet is carefully designed to harmonize with natural movements, aiming to feel less like a strain and more like a gentle presence. With direct input from those on the frontlines, Drager modernizes a helmet for the contemporary firefighters, considering the need for both protection and relief. In addition to meeting stringent safety standards, the helmet holds dual certifications for both structural fires and technical rescue missions, offering peace of mind even in tough conditions. Robust comfort beyond physical: Light on the head: With its light weight of just 3.2 lbs., theHPS SafeGuard helps to offer effortless movement and balanced weight distribution, seamlessly integrating as if a natural extension of the wearer. Built to endure: Engineered for tough job conditions, this helmet surpasses rigorous industry testing standards, offering an added layer of confidence. Visibly seen: Firefighters can worry less about squinting in the dark or being seen. The HPS SafeGuard comes with reflective strips and a backlit BuddyLight, effectively turning night into day in low-light conditions. Versatility: Designed to adapt just as quickly as the professionals who wear it, this helmet is dual-certified for both structural firefighting and technical rescues. No tools to maintain: Maintenance is simple, and a tool-free disassembly makes cleaning almost as effortless as wearing it. It's personal: Customizable features like helmet colors, department logos, and individual names add a personal touch, strengthening team identity and uniformity. Major Estimate Revision • Oct 18
