The 3M™ FLITE COV is an open circuit, positive pressure
airline breathing apparatus generally comprising; bandolier
harness, positive pressure airline apparatus consisting of
automatic positive pressure demand valve; supply hose and
coupling for airline supply hose.

An additional coupling allows the connection of an
emergency air supply cylinder with automatic change over
valve which provides an independent air supply with a
duration of 10 or 15 minutes, depending on cylinder size.

The apparatus can be used with the full range of AS/NZS1716
compliant 3M™positive pressure facemasks even when used
as an escape only apparatus.

The FLITE COV is specifically designed as an airline working
set and with its optional hip mounted cylinder as an airline
escape set. It has many applications but is particularly suited
to confined space entry and the oil and gas industry. It is
also suitable for providing respiratory protection in any IDLH
environment.

CE marked in accordance with EN14593-1:2005.
CE marked in accordance with EN402:2003 when
fitted with an escape cylinder.

The airline coupling is a male CEJN type and is mounted on
a pigtail assembly. It also incorporates a non-return valve
so air from the attached cylinder cannot escape when the
apparatus is detached from the airline supply.
The escape cylinder utilises a locking hand wheel to remain in
the open position and eliminate inadvertent shutting. If airline
delivery pressure is reduced by an interruption of the main
supply the automatic change over valve switches the unit to
cylinder air for safe egress. When there is a switch over to
cylinder air the user is alerted via activation of a whistle.

Cleaning should only be carried out as specified in the
user instructions. Maintenance and servicing must only be
performed by trained personnel following the procedures in
the Service and Maintenance manual.
