Technical Data Sheet
Dräger PARAT 5500 Fire Escape Hood
05.2017-TechnicalDataSheet_PARAT5500_EN
3.1 Mechanical resistance
Shock proofed
10,000 impacts for entire device
Drop test
6 x 1.5m on smooth concrete surface (from different starting positions)
Packaging Stability
Firing pin test acc. to EN 403:2004
Flame resistance
The unit does not contain easily flammable parts. At 800 ± 50°C the
device is pulled through an open flame at 6 ± 0.5 cm/sec. – when re-
moved from the flame, the device stops burning (self-extinguishing).
Temperature changing resistance
Performing in the listed order:
(70 ± 3) °C, rel. humidity < 20 %, (72 ± 3) h
(70 ± 3) °C, rel. humidity ≥ 95 %, (72 ± 3) h
(-30 ± 3) °C, (24 ± 1) h
Pressure changing
2 compressed air cycles with (-400 ±10) mbar for 60 sec
pressure compensation after < 20 sec.
3000 compressed air cycles with ( -300 ± 10) mbar for 60 sec.
pressure compensation after < 10 sec.
