The flame-retardant holster contains the fire escape hood known as the Draeger PARAT® 5550. The system was made to serve fire rescue teams who perform victim rescue operations. System approval of the PARAT 5550 happens with the Draeger breathing apparatus as per EN 137:2006, Type 2 standards.
- ”Ready to act” increases safety

The Draeger PARAT 5550 system solution keeps carrying, opening and donning the fire escape hood simple: The wearer opens the holster, removes the foil pouch containing the escape hood, opens it along the perforation — with ease, even when wearing gloves — and helps the person being rescued to don it. A clearly visible pictogram further illustrates the donning procedure.
