ROBD3

Reduced Oxygen Breathing Device 3 (ROBD3)

The Environics® Series Reduced Oxygen Breathing Device 3 is the newest in our line of systems that simulate altitude exposure and can be utilized for both research and hypoxia training. It is customizable for expanded research capabilities.

In addition to hypoxia training, the ROBD "Hot Key" feature can be included to allow you to simulate a failure in back up emergency oxygen. This is available for all existing and new ROBD. Contact us today for more information!

Features of the ROBD3

  • Large touch screen user interface (no remote mode)
  • Non-consumable O2 sensor design
  • A new pulse oximeter with integrated touch screen interface
  • Enter one flow rate for all altitudes between 40 and 80 LPM
  • Breathing bag is replaced with an internal reservoir, generating a faster refresh rate to the mask.
  • Addition of an inline Oxygen filter.
  • Pulse ox probe and mask connections moved to the rear of the chassis
  • Customizable for research, including addition of CO2
