PX5 Powered Air Purifying Respirator

The RPB PX5 is a battery-powered  air purifying respirator fan unit which draws in contaminated air from the users immediate vicinity, passing it through internal filters, and supplying the filtered air to the RPB Z-Link Metal Spray Helmets. The unit has built-in audible, visual and physical safety alarms which alert the user when filters need to be replaced, or there is an obstruction of airflow. This type of respirator is not appropriate for every environment or contaminant. 

The RPB PX5 changes the way people experience clean filtered air across multiple industries - from medical and chemical settings, through to the profoundly harsh environments of foundries.

The PX5 is the result of years of product refinement, designed with new functional capabilities, increasing performance while enhancing the way you experience comfort. The PX5 redefines what it means to be a powered air purifying respirator.

Boasting a robust yet compact design, the PX5 weighs just 1.15kg as a complete system. With strategic weight distribution through its vertical mounting position and support from our flexi-belt system, the PX5 contours to the user to maximise comfort and stability.

Designed with sleek considered surfaces, and a quick release mount lock system for ease of decontamination, the PX5 is certified to IP65 rating in use and IP67 rating with cleaning kit in place.
