ISI Viking SCBA DXL Digital

When seconds count, information may be the one thing that can keep you safe. This revolutionary NIOSH approved and NFPA compliant SCBA updates critical information such as cylinder pressure 100 times per second! And better yet, this life-saving information remains within your view at all times via the in-mask light display, ensuring that you're always aware of your safety.

Viking SCBA
with RIC System and Heads-up display

 

 
Fully NFPA 1982, 2002 Compliant

The New NFPA 1981, 2002 Edition requires a heads-up display and a RIC (Rapid Intervention Crew) fitting on every SCBA.  The RIC fitting allows a downed fire fighter's cylinder to be refilled from a supplied air cylinder.  Now you can connect a 4500 psi cylinder to a cylinder without over-pressurizing the cylinder.  A unique feature of ISI's RIC fitting is that it has a check valve that shuts off when the cylinder is full, instead of venting to atmosphere and saving you air.  The ISI Viking RIC fitting is located on the cylinder valve handwheel allowing for quick connection in reduced visibility.
Also Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Approved

 
Heads-up Display (HUD)

To save you time, a five light heads-up with microphone is built into the nosepiece inside the facemask.  At a glance, these lights give you continuous readouts of all systems, including cylinder pressure, end of service alarm, radio status, battery status and PASS pre-alarm.  There is no waiting or pressing of buttons to know your status at any moment.
 

 
The Viking DXL Control Console

The Control Console on the DXL model not only monitors cylinder pressure, but also provides the Clearest Voice Amplification System as a standard feature, as well as optional built-in PASS and Radio Interface. The compact console was designed to allow optimum mobility for the firefighter by eliminating bothersome external wires and accessories. Finally, a completely hands-free method of communication that doesn't get in the way.

The RIC (Rapid Intervention Crew) System
The RIC System meets NFPA 1981, 2002 Edition to provide emergency air to an SCBA for disabled or trapped personnel. Every Viking has a RIC fitting attached near the handwheel, that allows a downed fire fighter to have their cylinder filled from an outside source.


ISI AirSwitch® Facemask & Regulator

It also saves you a few more seconds. Fully integrated into the facemask, the AirSwitch regulator allows you to switch instantly between cylinder air and ambient air by pressing a switch, eliminating the need to dock a regulator prior to usage. When in the ambient position, the AirSwitch regulator saves you cylinder air. You have the option of switching modes in a fraction of a second, as many times as necessary, to save cylinder air. The Airswitch design combines the inhalation, exhalation and speech diaphragm into one assembly in order to achieve our unique design. With fewer moving parts, this also translates into high performance delivery of air, lower breathing resistance and an easier regulation to maintain. It's the only regulator that can be fully submerged, without disassembling, for easy cleaning and sanitizing. The heads-up display and microphone inside the AirSwitch are also waterproof and can be submersed as well.

The combination of the regulator and facemask with the AirSwitch design means the lowest facemask profile in the industry. Unlike other masks, it has no add-ons, so your view is unobstructed and your maneuverability is unmatched. In case of an emergency, the manual bypass will provide flow rates of 85 to 130 liters. Additional features of the AirSwitch mask are:

Small, medium and large sizes
Permanent anti-fog coating
Single or double curve visor
Built in water-proof microphone

Two-Piece Composite Backframe
The Viking backframe is lightweight and ergonomically designed so that the lower torso absorbs the weight of the pack, making is easier to wear for long periods of time without any discomfort.  The composite backframe was developed with a compartmentalized inner core to protect pneumatics and solid-state components from harsh environments.  The backframe also has a universal cylinder band that makes changing cylinders quick and easy.  All harnesses are made of Kevlar and shoulder straps are padded and preformed for greater comfort and easier donning.
