Product Specifications: Israeli M-15 Civilian Gas Mask

 

Our #1 Mask... THE WRIGHT CHOICE!
 

 

Advantages Disadvantages
  • The Israeli M-15, manufactured by Shalon Industries, is the #1 accepted mask in the world, making it the industry standard.                A Proven Product!
  • One Size fits all adults. Special powered air units available for children. 
  • Very cost effective in comparison to all escape hoods. Cost for escape hoods range from $165.00 to $200.00.
  • While the initial cost of the Israeli mask is similar to that of an escape hood, a sealed replacement cartridge cost $30.00 .
  • Due to the design of the escape hood  being completely sealed, replacement of the cartridge component is not an option. Once an escape hood has been opened from it's sealed container it cannot be reused and must be replaced. False alarms become very expensive.
  • According to manufacturer specifications, if the escape hood is not used during its stated shelf life of four years from the date of manufacture, you must replace the entire product. Note: Length of time on either manufacturer or distributor shelf is critical.
  • Escape hoods are new, and while they have been tested they have yet to be proven.                                 
  • The Israeli M-15 mask can be used as an escape mask. 
  • Disposable escape hoods, due to their design, are more expensive in comparison to the Israeli mask with replaceable cartridge.
  • How long will terrorist threats continue ... protect this costly investment.

 

  • The Israeli M-15 mask cannot be worn if you have facial hair.  You must be clean shaven to obtain a proper seal with your mask; failure to obtain a proper fit renders you unprotected.  Thus an escape hood is recommended since the sealing area is at the neck, thus providing a proper seal when one has facial hair.

Product Specifications: Israeli M-15 Child and Infant Protection

 

The Inpro and Respro are positive-pressure hooded respirator systems developed in conjunction with the Israel Defense Forces, designed to protect infants and children from nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) agents for extended periods of time in the event of an emergency.  Both respiratory systems utilize a battery-operated blower to supply a constant flow of filtered air to the hoods.

Inpro—for Infants and Toddlers up to 3 Years

The Inpro affords effective respiratory protection during NBC emergencies for toddlers and infants for extended periods, while assuring maximum comfort and allowing normal activity for the infant (eating, lying down, walking, playing) and for the parents (carrying, feeding and diapering the infant, and comforting with pacifier).

 

Key Features:

Inpro consists of:

  • Head and body covering made of strong impermeable and transparent plastic laminate—allows unobscured view of the infant. The cover includes:
    • Two strong and secure plastic zippers for quick and easy positioning or removal of the infant.
    • Integrated feeding nipple (feeding bottle is supplied with the system).
    • Flexible rubber hose for directing filtered air into the protector.
    • Support system—soft, comfortable, cushioning material on a rigid plastic ”carrier”.
       
  • Compact and reliable air supply unit—blower draws in ambient air through the filter canister and delivers it into the protector under positive pressure. The unit consists of:
    • A highly efficient miniature blower enclosed in a durable polycarbonate housing.
    • Four lithium-MnO2 batteries.
    • Specially designed filter canister adaptor.
       
  • Brightly colored strap system—for safely securing and carrying the infant.
  • Highly protective plastic storage case.

 

 

 

Respro—for Children Ages 2–8 Years

The Respro is specially designed to provide respiratory protection to small children during NBC emergencies with optimal simplicity, comfort and safety, assuring extended use with minimal interference in normal activities. 

Key Features:

Respro consists of three main integral sub-systems:

  • Light and flexible impermeable hood —includes:
    • Large optical grade visor.
    • Drinking system for safe fluid intake in contaminated environments.
    • Comfortable and easily adjustable head harness and neck strap, with elastic webbings.
    • Flexible rubber hose for directing filtered air into the hood.
       
  • Compact and reliable air supply unit—blower draws in ambient air through the filter canister and delivers it into the hood under positive pressure. The unit consists of:
    • A highly efficient miniature blower enclosed in a durable polycarbonate housing.
    • Four lithium-MnO 2 batteries.
    • Specially designed filter canister adaptor.
       
  • Comfortable and brightly colored vest —acts as an interface between the hood and the air supply unit and secures the hood on the child.
