FIRE MAX 3 ­ Rosenbauer
FIRE MAX 3 PBI NEO
The newest high-performance fabric with PBI.
With the FIRE MAX 3 PBI NEO, Rosenbauer
has developed protective clothing never
before seen in the world of firefighting.
The fourth outer fabric X55 with PBI adds
to the existing configuration of the FIRE
MAX 3 protective suit. The benefit to this
particular outer fabric is the use of a PBI
high-performance fabric with excellent
tensile strength values, even better flame
resistance, and a distinctive look.
Its strengths: high tensile strength
and flame resistance.
The new PBI material is especially characterized by
extremely good mechanical properties. When it comes to
tensile strength, the FIRE MAX 3 PBI NEO achieves eight
times the performance required by standard EN 469
(> 3,600 N). In terms of tear propagation resistance, the
suit exceeds the minimum requirements many times over
(up to 600 N as per ISO 4674-1 procedure B).
