2 Description
The KITE is intended for protection against solid and liquid Aerosols. The KITE supplies an
overcapacity of clean and filtered ambient air, and allows the user to breathe in air
without having to overcome the resistance of filters. This overcapacity ensures a slight
over pressure and thus a high degree of protection. With a fully charged battery the KITE
can provide a flow rate of 160 litres per minute for approximately 7 hours, depending on
the filter used and the condition of the battery. The KITE is equipped with an acoustic
warning system to warn the user about reduced air supply during use. The KITE may be
equipped with the standard visor, with disposable protection visors, but also with a
welding visor with variable shades of welding filters or an automatic welding lens.
Furthermore a wide range of spares and accessories is available to enlarge the field of
application.
