In the last part of our three-part blog series on the Hybrid Patriot 5510®, we will explore some of the 5510’s functionality and the value it represents to law enforcement officers and first responders.
The Hybrid Patriot 5510 is engineered, built and certified to sustain life in a CBRN & subterranean environment. The purpose of offering the multimode option of protection [APR, PAPR, SCBA, SAR] is to allow the end user the flexibility to change between modes to preserve resources of compressed air and batteries. (Understanding the 5510’s Modes: Infographic) It supports their decisions as to what level of respiratory protection is required thereby allowing them the option to stay on task longer than traditional respirators. The Hybrid Patriot 5510 can communicate with other Bluetooth devices, such as weather stations, gas sensors or other critical devices while on scene, allowing that same crucial information to be supplied to a command post in real-time. This information will assist in operational planning and responses which can be used to save additional lives.
Whether it is a terrorist event, raiding a local meth lab or the dreaded ‘unknown’ chemical crisis call, law enforcement officers and first responders of all disciplines have to be prepared to respond. They must be protected in these hostile environments so they can get the accomplish the job and return home safe to their families. No respirator on the market today offers the same level of protection, information gathering and sharing, tracking and documenting as the Hybrid Patriot 5510 does. From the smallest of incidents to a full-blown event the 5510 will provide a significant advantage to its wearer and to its command center. Those who wear the 5510 on a call will appreciate and understand the value of the options and mission preparation.
