The Quantifit is a precision instrument that uses electronic pressure sensors to detect minute changes at very low levels of negative pressure, of +/- 0.25%.
To ensure that the instrument works according to the parameters for which it was designed, a daily check must be carried out before each test day, and a factory calibration must be carried out once a year.
The calibration process includes upgrades to the latest firmware versions and modifications if necessary.

Firefighters are regularly exposed to carcinogenic chemicals. Repeated exposure increases their risk of developing certain types of cancer, such as lung, prostate, lymphatic and melanoma, over the course of their careers.
Consequently, it is crucial to carry out periodic mechanical decontamination to remove all particles that have embedded themselves in the various components of respiratory protection equipment over time.

- Despite a rigorous cleaning and decontamination protocol in the barracks, we’ve noticed that contaminants become embedded in every component of an APRIA. We therefore recommend annual or bi-annual mechanical decontamination, depending on the use and condition of the equipment.
