PPV TRAINER
>POSITIVE PRESSURE VENTILATION TRAINING
>INTEGRATED FANS AND SMOKE
Positive Pressure Ventilation is a powerful firefighting tactic when used
correctly. With the HAAGEN PPV Trainer, it is now possible to conduct hands-on
PPV training that is efficient and effective. The Positive Pressure Ventilation
(PPV) Trainer allows you to challenge trainees to control doors, windows and
roof vents on a number of floor plans to successfully ventilate a building.
Fire fighters need to know the proper applications and, most importantly, the
limits of PPV as an emergency response strategy. With the correct techniques,
PPV can enhance the safety of both first responders and civilians at the scene.
HAAGEN's PPV Trainer takes theoretical learning to a hands-on, practical level
that can allow trainees to fully understand this critical firefighting tactic.
HOW THE PPV TRAINER WORKS
Students can set-up fans, introduce smoke and control doors, windows and
ventilation holes to learn the principles of PPV. Clear walls and red
transparent doors allow students to visualize the air flow and learn to control
ventilation.
> The PPV simulator comes standard with a basement, first floor
and roof for basic residential fire training.
> Add additional levels and choose from a number of floor plans
for more advanced fire scenarios.
> The PPV simulator comes with a rugged transport and storage
case to safely transport the PPV structure from site to site.
> The internal smoke generator with on-board smoke fluid
reservoir is located in the basement of the structure. Smoke channels built into
each level are used to fill the entire structure or specific rooms with smoke.
> The handheld controller can be used to operate the on-board
smoke generator and fans.
> All windows and doors are fully operational and ventilation
holes are included in the roof.
> Internal doors are operated with cables and knobs mounted to
the exterior of the floor.
> Choose from a number of floor layouts and create a customized
based on your training requirements.
Basement: Challenge trainees in the use of correct basement
ventilation procedures
Ground Floor: Practice ventilation with the help of big openings
such as garage doors.
1st Floor Simulate ventilation training on a floor with many
small rooms giving out onto one large corridor.
2nd Floor: Small rooms and windows allow for another setup and
ventilation training on this floor.
Drop Ceiling: Educate students on the challenges of ventilating
structures with drop ceilings and cocklofts.
Inclined Roof: Practice staircase ventilation on this roof
model. Windows and extra ventilation holes also allow natural/wind ventilation.
Flat Roof: Simulate ventilation via ventilation holes in the
roof.
> Challenge trainees to use positive pressure ventilation to
quickly clear a smoke-filled structure.
> Show trainees how to open and close windows, doors and vents
for optimal results.
> Educate on proper fan positioning and the use of multiple fans
for large openings.
> Demonstrate the advantages and limitations of both negative
and positive pressure ventilation.
> Simulate strong wind conditions and challenge trainees to
maintain control of building ventilation.
> Combine the PPV Trainer with the HAAGEN Desktop Flashover to
demonstrate the dangers of flashover and backdraft when ventilating.
