Air Systems Bottled Air Carts provide a highly portable, NIOSH point-of-attachment compliant Grade-D breathing air source for hazardous environments, confined space entries, and emergency responses. Designed by Air Systems International, these mobile systems are built around user safety, offering distinct tiers of functionality between the economical MULTI-PAK™ Series and the specialized Technical Rescue (TECH-RESCUE™) Series.
1. Air Systems MULTI-PAK™ Series Air Carts
The patented MULTI-PAK™ series offers a compact, lightweight, and economical solution for industrial safety professionals and fire/rescue teams requiring a reliable source of breathing air.
PSI Configurations & Choosing Your Model:
• 2216 PSI System: Ideal for facilities and teams standardizing around low-pressure SCBA cylinders. Optimized for short-duration routine maintenance and simple confined space entries.
• 4500 PSI System: Built for high-pressure SCBA cylinders to drastically extend working or rescue times. It provides continuous, high-flow air distribution for extended-duration hazards.
• 5500 PSI System: The ultimate high-pressure variant designed to maximize air capacity in the smallest footprint possible, reducing the frequency of cylinder change-outs during critical operations.
Key Features & Selling Points:
• Rugged Portability: Built with a black powder-coated steel frame (stainless steel available), a fold-down handle for compact storage, and 8-inch semi-pneumatic tires.
• Safety First: Features an intrinsically safe pneumatic low-pressure alarm whistle (bell option available) that requires no electricity.
• Multi-User Manifold: Equipped with a solid aluminum block manifold supporting 2-worker or 4-worker configurations.
• Pneumatic Tool Output (Rescue Models): Includes a secondary 0-125 PSI low-pressure regulator and dedicated outlet to operate pneumatic tools or lift bags simultaneously.
2. Air Systems TECH-RESCUE™ Technical Rescue Carts
The premium TECH-RESCUE™ Cart is the fire and rescue industry’s most versatile mobile air platform. Engineered specifically for Technical Rescue teams, it splits air management into dual-purpose operations via a color-coded control panel.
PSI Configurations & Versatility:
• Universal 2216 / 4500 PSI Management: The integrated air control panel natively handles inputs from either dual 2216 PSI or 4500 PSI cylinders.
• Cascade System Compatible: Beyond standard portable cylinders, the TECH-RESCUE™ system can accept high-pressure cascade cylinder air directly from a fire truck for indefinite runtime.]
Key Features & Selling Points:
• Dual-Zone Control Panel: Features a unique color-designated panel that isolates primary respirator breathing air control on one side and independent pneumatic tool/secondary air requirements on the other.
• Premium Stainless Steel Build: Features a high-durability stainless steel frame designed to resist corrosion and harsh field decontamination protocols.
• Quick-Fill Capabilities: Available with an optional 5-foot Quick-Fill hose assembly to hot-swap or recharge cylinders rapidly during active technical rescues.
