Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today announced the Honeywell TITAN™, a newself-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA)that combines high-performance Honeywell materials, proprietary electronics, and unique ergonomic features to offer firefighters a greater degree of maneuverability, safety, and efficiency on the fireground. See a demo of TITAN at booth 911 atFDIC国际2016, April 18-23.
“TITAN offers firefighters a whole new experience with their SCBA because it operates like an extension of thefirefighter- 它在身体上保持平衡，使communicationeasier and is intuitive to operate.” said Ken Schmidt, president for Honeywell First Responder. “Honeywell built smart技术进入一个简单的SCBA，使消防员能够将精力集中在攻击火而不是SCBA上。”
Titan SCBA由全球霍尼韦尔第一响应者研发团队开发，与消防员进行了咨询和广泛的测试，可提供新的技术和人体工程学进步，包括：
- 单元两侧的专利运动传感器（在正面，个人警报安全系统（通过），后传）保持泰坦的感应模式，从而大大降低了电池的消耗并最大程度地减少了虚假预警。
- SCBAwellness-check sends diagnostic software alerts to the user through audible and visual alarms when there is a mechanical fault with an electrical component.
- 通行证中的热量热警报在消防员开始吸收过多的热量时为消防员提供了视觉和可听见的指示器。
- 可选的语音放大系统（VAS），采用推向对话或免提恒定通话操作。
- 简单，方便的用户训练通过智能手机。
- Optional wireless radio communications provide long-distance communication that works with sophisticated repeater systems.
Honeywell designed TITAN for maximum comfort and utility. Unlike many SCBAs, the unit rests on the hips, not the shoulders, so the apparatus stays balanced at the body’s center of gravity. The unit also has a swivel-and-pivot mechanism that allows for unrestricted body movement and advanced materials on the shoulder straps keep shoulder straps from slipping off.
An aerospace-grade aluminum back frame and durable waist belt can withstand 1,000 pounds of pull force, and shoulder strap material that is impermeable to chemicals can withstand more than 700 pounds. TITAN is compatible with Honeywell’s Life Grip™, a multi-functional waist belt that can be used to integrate a rappelling system, ladder belt and can also be used as a drag strap.
“Thanks to special materials, TITAN is incredibly rugged,” said Schmidt. “We have received reports from firefighters that it reduces body fatigue, shoulder pain and other aches and pains from bulky SCBAs. This SCBA answers the industry’s need for a competitively priced SCBA that offers the best combination of comfort, safety, reliability and ease of use. And by developing an SCBA that exceeds NFPA-compliant standards, Honeywell is making a statement of its long-term commitment to the188金博网网址多少community.”
Titan符合2007年和2013年NFPA 1981（国家消防协会）的版本，符合美国国家职业安全与健康研究所（NIOSH）的要求，并批准用于化学，生物学，放射性和核（CBRN）材料。
