MSA TransportAire™ Portable Air-Supply System

The TransportAire System consists of an impact-resistant handle with nylon straps that fit around an MSA 30-,45-,or 60-minute low-pressure (2216 psig or 3000 psig) or high pressure (4500 psig) cylinder (purchased separately). The system is designed for exclusive use with MSA supplied-air respirators equipped with a dual-supply option.

A major advantage of the dual-supply option is improved mobility; workers need not remain tethered to a single air supply hose throughout a work period. To accommodate this option, the dual-supply manifold on MSA respirators features two air-inlet ports: a MAIN inlet and a DUALSUPPLY inlet. Both are used to deliver respirable air to the user whenever connected to a pressurized air source.

With the dual-supply capability, users can connect from one pressurized continuous air source to another without losing continuity of air flow. After the first length of air supply hose has reached its limit,the wearer simply plugs into a second approved air source and disconnects from the first. This technique is known as “leap-frogging,” because it gives workers the ability to move from station to station without disrupting the supply of air.

Whether a worker is using the “MAIN”inlet of the manifold,the “DUAL-SUPPLY”inlet,or both inlets simultaneously,the respirator will provide supplied-air respiratory protection as long as the user remains connected to one of the two air sources.

With the TransportAire System connected to the DUALSUPPLY or MAIN inlet of the manifold,a worker can carry the portable air supply to a location where the second air source is available for longer-term use. After connecting the second air source into the open inlet of the manifold, the user can disconnect the TransportAire System and keep it available until it is time to exit the area.
