QS PLUG-IN REGULATOR UNIT has a well-proven and robust design, the pneumatics has been in service more than 10 years. The unit comprises of a cylinder valve connector, a pressure regulator, a mechanical audible alarm and a pressure gauge.

The flexibility of the QS-system place very high demands on the regulator. Using a rescue hose, attaching a Revitox rescue mask – combined with the large breathing volumes a fire fighter demands on assignment – requires a regulator with extreme flow rates.

The Plug-in Regulator is characterized by its high capacity and reliable mechanical design. This ensures that the positive pressure in the face mask is maintained even under conditions with low cylinder pressure and extreme breathing rates.

The pressure regulator and audible warning are designed as modular units to simplify maintenance and reduce down time.
