2 1 of 26 11/14/ :32 AM First Revision No. 4-NFPA [ Section No [Excluding any Sub-Sections] ] This standard shall apply to atmosphere-supplying respirators that provide the breathing air supply from a compressed breathing gas source or liquid air source that is independent of the ambient atmosphere. Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: David Trebisacci Organization: National Fire Protection Assoc Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Tue Aug 09 15:29:03 EDT 2016 Committee Statement Committee Statement: Response Message: NFPA 1989 does not make provision for, or address "cryogenic liquid air" as a source for breathing air. The technical committee is proposing that the standard be revised to include liquid air manufacture, storage, sampling, and analysis methodology.

Lentz, Kevin D. Morgan, Judge W. Mundy, William T. Ochoa, Ruby Profit, Bryan Radtke, Timothy M. Rossos, Daniel N. Sanders, Stephen R. Sell, Robert Steedman, Trevor L. Szalajda, Jonathan V. Szymanski, Michael E. Tekelenburg, Marco Trudgeon, Mark Warner, Kenton D. Weinstein, Steven H. Negative with Comment Anaya, Christopher Proposed language should not be added. It is my opinion the NFPA 1981 TC should not be approving the use of liquid air for structural firefighting activities until the technology is better understood and concerns and/or questions can be adequately addressed. Miles, Stephen T. NFPA 1989 does not make provision for, or address "cryogenic liquid air" as a source for breathing air. The technical committee is proposing that the standard be revised to include liquid air manufacture, storage, sampling, and analysis methodology. There is insufficient information on the safe blending of breathing air for me to support this for fire fighting operations at this point. Breathing air and water are the two most important factors for fire suppression. Mixed gas breathing air, re-breathers, and synthetic air all have their place in their technical discipline fields. Those applications are beyond the standard fire suppression operations. I don't have enough information to support this at this time.

4 3 of 26 11/14/ :32 AM First Revision No. 6-NFPA [ Section No ] This standard shall apply to all compressed normal atmospheric air, and all compressed synthetic breathing air, and liquid air regardless of the source of the breathing air.
