2.2 Function
The demonstration and training device can be used for demonstration and practise of wearing and
breathing without using a chemical canister. The inhalation air is taken from the ambient air and the
exhalation air is expelled outside.
The demonstration and training device is comparable in size, weight, external construction, handling
and breathing resistance to the emergency use devices.
To distinguish it from the emergency use devices, the demonstration and training device has marked blue.
2.3 Differentiating Features with regard to the Emergency Use Device
Several components of the demonstration and training device are not identical to the corresponding
components of the emergency use device and are therefore marked blue or structurally modified in
such a way as to highlight differences or to prevent one being confused with the other:
-Container cover with blue label
-Breathing bag made of blue material
-Canister is shorter and with blue label
-Breathing tube with mouthpiece and nose clip has holes on the upper side and is screwed into the
canister with a connecting piece and thus is easily removable
2.4 Marking
The devices are classified according to EN 13794 and marked with the type [code letter] and nominal
duration [minutes]. The type, nominal duration and referenced standard are marked on the device.
The device are marked as follows:
For the demonstration and training device the breathing air is taken from the ambient
atmosphere, i.e. training must be made in environments free from contamination.
