AP-BT-FR - Walter Airplus FR Breathing Tube Protector Sleeve

Protective FR Cover for Airplus PAPR Breathing Tube

The Walter Airplus Breathing Tube FR Cover (AP-BT-FR) is a specialized accessory engineered to preserve the integrity of the breathing hose within the Walter Airplus Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) system. Manufactured from high-grade flame-resistant materials, this protective sleeve serves as a robust barrier against the thermal hazards inherent in industrial welding and fabrication environments. By effectively shielding the corrugated breathing tube from direct contact with welding sparks, molten spatter, and radiant heat, the cover prevents premature material degradation, punctures, and potential leaks that could compromise the respiratory protection factor of the unit.

Designed for a precise fit, the AP-BT-FR encapsulates the standard Airplus breathing tube without interfering with the airflow or the flexibility required for operator mobility. The cover is lightweight yet durable, ensuring that it does not add unnecessary bulk to the welder's gear. Installation is straightforward, allowing for quick setup and removal during routine equipment maintenance and inspection. For facilities adhering to strict safety protocols and looking to maximize the return on investment of their PAPR systems, this FR cover is an essential component that significantly reduces the frequency of hose replacements due to thermal damage.
