Responding to the need for a smaller, lighter SCBA, Scott Safety created the new 5.5 cylinders. By increasing the pressure in the cylinder to 5500 psig, Scott Safety was able to maintain the traditional form, durability and capacity of the standard cylinder while offering more than a 10% reduction in weight and profile. The 5.5 cylinders are available in 30-minute, 45-minute, 60-minute and 75-minute durations and compatible with the Air-Pak 75 and Air-Pak NxG7 SCBA. To facilitate integration into the fire service, Scott Safety worked with leading manufacturers to ensure the cylinders work with existing seats and brackets already in the market.
