The New Standard will require the firefighter
to engage a latching mechanism
to retain the cylinder. The intent of this
Standard is to insure that the SCBA
is secured in it’s stowed position
and not just left loose in the crew
compartment. The new standard
further requires the holding device
to “retain the SCBA unit when subjected
to a 9-G force.” Additionally,
“release mechanism shall be accessible
to the user while seated”.
