1.4 APPARATUS DURATION
All durations quoted are nominal, based
on an Average Wearer Consumption
Rate of 40 L/min and FULLY CHARGED
cylinders. Actual Wearer Consumption
rates vary due to many factors, such as:
• Workload: high work rates increase
consumption rates.
• Weight of apparatus and use of
heavy or restrictive clothing.
• Work environments with extremes
of heat or cold.
• Physical fitness of the wearer.
• Other factors include emotional
stress and fatigue.
• Supplying cylinder air to a
resuscitator or rescue second mask
(RSM).
It is important that all wearers are aware
of these factors and take account of them
when assessing cylinder duration.
