COMFORT SCBA fixtures
One for all. A cleverly conceived solution.
Fire service vehicles remain in service for around twenty years and during this
time their equipment requires renewal and replacement on several occasions.
This also applies to the SCBA (Self Contained Breathing Apparatus) fixtures integrated into the seats for which Rosenbauer has developed a special COMFORT
solution. The COMFORT fixtures can be simply adapted to any type of breathing
apparatus (1- and 2- steel or CRFP bottle sets) using an open-end wrench. The
components are all foamed and thus protect the apparatus.
General information
▪▪ Equipment tested according to EN1846-2
▪▪ Suitable for all the 1- and 2- steel or CRFP bottle sets currently known to Rosenbauer
▪▪ All components in rust-free materials (light metal, plastic, stainless steel)
▪▪ Moisture-insensitive, easy care, foam cushioned parts with a gray, structured surface
▪▪ Foamed, clamp rollers guarantee vibration-secure, damage-free anchorage
▪▪ Unobstructed view and optimum communications between the driver, the commander and the crew
▪▪ Simple re- or retrofitting of the COMFORT SCBA fixtures to face the front or the back of the vehicle
(see safety instructions)

Comfort both before and after operations
Top ergonomics. Ready for action in a flash.
Comfort and functionality for rapid
use! The cleverly conceived SCBA
fixtures from Rosenbauer.
Ergonomics for the entire back
Stabilization of the back takes place
through the combination of a headrest,
SCBA back support plate and foamed
equipment carrier. As a result of its
optimized form and soft, foam insert,
the seat cushion offers a high degree
of comfort.

Outstanding ergonomics even without
the breathing apparatus
As a rule, during the drive back from operations, the
empty, and dirty breathing apparatuses are not fixed back
on the seats. The ergonomically shaped backrest of the
COMFORT SCBA fixture is folded out and combines with
the other cushioned COMFORT components to form a
coordinated unit that provides a perfect sitting position.

Slipping on in seconds
The breathing apparatus facemask is stored in its own
compartment in the headrests. The belts of the apparatus
are suspended from the horns on both sides of the seat.
This means that the belts are immediately accessible and
the SCBA can be put on in seconds. At the same time, the
back part of the seat is pleasantly belt-free, which means
that the irritating manipulation of tangled or twisted belts
is finally a thing of the past. A single pull of the lever
unlocks the SCBA, the headrest and the clamping rollers
swing upwards and the firefighter is ready for action.

Safety instructions
With the exception of the versions with integrated safety
belt insertion points, SCBA fixtures are designed exclusively for the secure anchorage and rapid donning of breathing
apparatus. Neither the apparatus, nor the fixtures may be
used as a type of safety belt. Therefore, Rosenbauer recommends the installation of SCBA fixtures with integrated
safety belt insertion points.
Pneumatic locking is available as an option in order to
prevent the unintentional opening of the SCBA fixture.
This first releases the breathing apparatus when the vehicle parking brake has been applied. However, this form of
locking is also no substitute for a safety belt.
