CARBO-T DEZEGA

The design, overall dimensions, weight, donning procedure and breathing
resistance of the CARBO-T training self-rescuer fully corresponds to the
self-contained self-rescuer on chemically bonded oxygen CARBO-60.
The self-rescuer consists of:
• the top lid, under which the neck strap, HME-imitator with a plug, nose
clip, breathing tube, antifogging protective goggles are packed;
• the cartridge-imitator;
• the bottom lid, under which a breathing bag and a chest strap are
packed.
A breathing bag and a breathing tube are connected to the nozzles of the
cartridge. The covers are pressed against the imitating cartridge by means
of a coupling strap.
The training self-rescuer is designed for carrying on a shoulder or waist
belt. The procedure for HME-imitator replacement is given in Section 8.
5. OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The operating principle of the CARBO-T training self-rescuer, equipped
with an imitating cartridge for practicing in a breathable atmosphere,
is as follows:
• overall dimensions, weight and carrying method of the CARBO-T
training self-rescuer are similar to respective characteristics of the
CARBO-60 self-rescuer. Due to this, the user trains the carrying skills;
• the force of opening the lock of the training self-rescuer CARBO-T
corresponds to the same parameters of the self-rescuer CARBO-60,
due to this fact, the user trains donning skills;
• when donning the self-rescuer, the user inhales air from the environment
through the inhalation valve, located on the HME-imitator side.
The exhaled air passes through the exhalation valve, located in the
HME-imitator nozzle, the breathing tube, the imitating cartridge,
the breathing bag and through the relief valve it is released into the
atmosphere. The breathing resistance in the training self-rescuer
CARBO-T is thus similar to the self-rescuer CARBO-60.
Before each training, the HME-imitator and the plug shall be replaced
with a new one or disinfected in accordance with the requirements,
set out in ANNEX A.

11. INSPECTION OF THE TECHNICAL CONDITION
OF THE TRAINING SELF-RESCUER
During the operation of the training self-rescuer, each disassembly and
assembly, it is necessary to check the technical condition of all nodes
and parts for damage.
During storage, the training self-rescuer does not require maintenance.
During training sessions, after each donning, the self-rescuer must be
brought back to its original state. Before using for the first time, it is
recommended to remove carefully the covers and examine the packing
set, carried out at the factory.
In case of damage or loss of any parts or nodes of the training
self-rescuer during the practice exercises, you can order them
additionally (ANNEX B).
12. STORAGE AND TRANSPORT REQUIREMENTS
The transportation of packed training self-rescuers should be carried
out in closed, clean and dry vehicles by all types of transport at
temperature from -50 °С to +50 °С and relative air humidity up to 100%.
The self-rescuers are transported in accordance with the rules for the
carriage of goods in force for this type of transport.
In case of transportation at subzero temperatures, it is necessary to
hold the CARBO-T training self-rescuers in the premise with a room
temperature for 24 hours before their intended use.
During warehouse storage, training self-rescuers shall be stored
in the original transportation packing at air temperature range
from +5 °C to +40 °C and relative humidity of not more than 80%,
separately from corroding substances.
Between the practice exercises, the training self-rescuers should be stored
in a special premise ready for the next practice.
