The LifeGuard II RIT bag is a fast and easy method of emergency air transfer used by trained rapid intervention teams to rescue victims or downed firefighters.
The Dräger RIT LifeGuard II was designed to serve as a backup air supply when a distressed firefighter is low on air or has compromised breathing apparatus, or when a victim needs air. This emergency air reserve system quickly supplies air for immediate use. The RIT LifeGuard II is lightweight, portable, and has a fire-resistant bag. To protect the cylinder and pneumatics from damage, the bag has a reinforced bottom that is made of tough vinyl coated polyester. This rugged design allows the bag to be easily dragged over all types of abrasive surfaces.
– Single flap opens to provide access to everything you need to perform a rescue – Slim profile with an ergonomic design that resists snags – Separate compartment protects face piece – Accommodates 45- or 60-minute cylinders – Easy-to-clean, durable, fire-resistant bag withstands harsh environments
Fast and Easy Deployment The RIT LifeGuard is fast and easy to deploy. An intuitive, single pull handle opens quickly, providing easy access to all components that a RIT team needs to function and get air to the fallen. The high pressure transfill hose is attached to the interior of the lid, making it easy to find and quick to deploy. The medium pressure lung demand valve (LDV) is already connected to a full face piece, which has its own compartment. Interior color-coded lines make it easy to identify what pressure is on what side in poorly lit conditions.
