FireHawk® M7 Air Mask
MSA’s new FireHawk M7 Air Maskrepresents a true technologicalachievement in critical personal protection. As firefighters determinedthe safety requirements that would be needed to meet the newNFPA 1981 and 1982–2007-editionstandards, MSA’s engineering teams began designing the solutions.
The new FireHawk M7 Air Maskemerged with seven life-safety designcomponents built on a modular Air Maskplatform, developed to exceed the newNFPA 2007 requirements and providefirefighters with the highest-qualitySCBA currently available.

FireHawk® M7 Air Mask
1. TAKING THE HEAT
Although MSA PASS alarms have performed in extreme temperatures for more than a decade, a top priority was to design an alarm that could really take the heat! The new M7 alarm(patent pending) was developed in cooperation with prominentuniversity acoustic experts, resulting in an emitter that exceeds95 decibels with solid performance at the NFPA 500F test! Onceagain, giving you that lifesaving edge in the face of danger.
2. VIRTUALLY “BULLET-PROOF” ELECTRONICS
Like an armor shield, the M7 HUD, Power Module, and Control Module are encased in a proprietary high-temperatureimpact-grade polymer, providing the highest possible protection against impact and water ingress. Electronics enclosures are permanently sonically welded to a hermetic standard and use ahigh-pressure O-ring to ensure a consistent water-tight seal.The new M7 electronics are virtually “bullet-proof” against fire-ground hazards.
3. STRAIGHT-TALK COMMUNICATIONS
We’ve got you covered with communications, starting with a high-performance mechanical speech diaphragm, with performancethat exceeds the new NFPA requirements as a stand-alone solution. Backing the mechanical diaphragm is an electronic amplifier with an internal facepiece microphone for ultimate clarity. The ClearCommand® Communication System providesclear communication during the most critical times. This Air Maskspeaks loud and clear when it comes to communications.
4. FIREGROUND MANAGEMENT
Firefighter accountability systems have never before been as practical, complete, and user-friendly as the MSA M7 Accountability System. It’s based on the ICM TxR Unit introduced in mid-2006, which has thousands of systems deployed in virtually every type of fire department, and they’reperforming phenomenally! It displays a full array of visual and audible information for up to 100 firefighters within a one-mile-line-of-site – exactly what incident commanderswanted. Record keeping is also made easy by downloading reports. This crown jewel is available only from MSA!
5. EXTENDED PROTECTION
The new FireHawk M7 Air Mask is not your typical SCBA. Firefighters need to be prepared for the unexpected, and emergency egress from a 2nd-floor or higher can be impossiblewithout the right safety equipment. That's why the new M7 Air Mask offers an NFPA- compliant integrated rappelling system, called the Rescue Belt, providing firefighters with one more lifesaving option in the face of danger.
"Above and beyond" protection is also provided with the CBRN FireHawk MMR. The CBRN FireHawk includes a positive-protection Tetraplex™ shield, to prevent contact between chemical warfare agents and the most vulnerable component of regulators, their thin elastomeric diaphragm. Other "air-wash" approaches may pass in laboratory conditions. The shield provides positive protection against all potential conditions.
External hazards are bad enough without having concerns ofspreading illness among firefighters through shared-use SCBA. The Ultra Elite® facepiece protects you against user cross-contamination with MSA’s inhalation check-valve: a “must have” inmodern safety equipment.

6. LIGHTWEIGHT AND EASY TO USE
Firefighters already have enough weight to carry and gear to maintain, so MSA engineers set out to lighten the load of components, reduce parts counts, simplify maintenance, maximize usercomfort, and modularize the design. The FireHawk M7 Air Mask has alightweight polymer backplate, with quick-release harness straps, anerror-proof cam-lock cylinder attachment, fast change-out electroniccomponents, a large swiveling lumbar pad, and regulators that will fit in the palm of your hand (less than 30 parts for the MMR and 14 forthe 1st stage). Our time-tested Ultra Elite facepiece has unbeatablecomfort, visibility, communications, cross-contamination protection, fit, and seal.
7. PLATFORM FOR THE FUTURE
The FireHawk M7 Air Mask is designed to accept future technology upgrades. Included in every M7 electronics ensemble is a 2.4GHz personal wireless network, a network that transmits and receives encrypted information over a short-range on a firefighter’s body.
This new wireless feature provides the capability to add on future technology that can provide additional information back to incidentcommand through the FireHawk M7 Accountability System.Software can also be upgraded wirelessly in the field, through the M7 wireless network. You never have to worry about radio interference either – we have you covered with a thoroughly-tested RFI shield design that protects against all fireground radio signals.The new FireHawk M7 Air Mask provides you with the best technology today and positions you for well into the future.

FireHawk® M7 Responder Air Mask
Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus
45
MSA’s new FireHawk M7 Responder Air Mask is uniquely versatileprotection that can quickly be transformed into a CBRN air-purifyingrespirator (APR) or a CBRN powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR). You can change respirator modes as your job changes direction from firstresponse and rescue to scene management and remediation activities.
Firefighters typically are the first to respond to any incident whether it is a residential fire, an accident, or any unknown threat. MSA’s FireHawk M7 Responder Air Mask provides the maximum level ofprotection for CBRN environments. However, that amount of protection isnot always needed, especially outside the immediate fire scene. Once thehazard has been assessed, air-purifying respirators (APR) may make themost sense for low concentrations of certain contaminants.
The M7 Responder facepiece is NIOSH approved for the SCBA, PAPR andAPR configurations, in accordance with the MSA users instructions. Thispractical emergency respiratory protection system meets/ exceeds thelatest requirements of NFPA and NIOSH standards (see ATO orderinginformation for details). It’s the first and only of its kind, and an emergencyresponder’s dream come true.
APR
PAPR
The FireHawk M7 Responder Air MaskBased on the seven life-safety design components built on the FireHawk M7 Air Mask to ensure you of the highest-quality SCBA currently available, giving you that lifesaving edge in the face of danger. This new air mask offers more options than any other product in the industry, combined with the unique CBRN APR and PAPR options.
The FireHawk M7 Responder APRTo convert from SCBA to APR, the canister and breathing tube must be attached tothe facepiece. When the SCBA cylinder valve is closed, facepiece valves convert toair-purifying mode through the APR canister. Although the air mask carrier andharness and cylinder may be removed from the user, the MMR regulator mustalways be connected to the inlet adapter to seal the facepiece inlet port.
PAPR
45Customer Service Center: 1-800-MSA-2222 • Website: www.MSAnet.com
The FireHawk M7 Responder PAPRThe CBRN Responder PAPR (Powered Air-Purifying Respirator) system isideal when you need non-IDLH respiratory protection for an extendedperiod of time (up to 8 hours). This PAPR provides an OSHA-assignedprotection factor 20 times greater than APR, due to positive pressure in themask. Essentially, it combines an industry-leading motor-blower to theUltra Elite M7 Responder Facepiece, and CBRN canisters for up to 8 hours ofair-purifying respiratory protection. Its constant filtered air flow (of at least115 lpm) improves comfort with a cooling effect, greatly reducingpulmonary stress, and preserving strength and mental acuity. The airflowalso prevents fogging in the facepiece, reduces claustrophobia,and allowsfor extended use in hot and stressful environments.

Facepiece Assemblies for FireHawk M7 Air MasksUltra Elite® FacepieceThe MSA Ultra Elite Facepiece offers an effective com bi na tion of comfort and per for mance.
Designed to provide exceptional peripheral anddownward vision, the Ultra Elite Facepiece features a super-soft facepiece texture for a smooth andcomfortable fit. It also resists chemical attack andtemperature extremes, and withstands rugged day-to-day use without tearing and ripping.
The design of the Ultra Elite Facepiece is based onextensive anthropometric studies of the face-length,temple-width and chin-width data from more than 8,000 individuals. The result is a facepiece that providesimproved seals against a wide range of facial contours. To provide a secure, comfortable fit, the facepiece utilizes five adjustable straps with stainless steel, field-replaceable buckles that resist chemical attack. The straps also feature slightly larger adjustment tabsthat are easier to manipulate, even with gloves on.
For slip-on convenience, the Ultra Elite Facepiece can beequipped with the SpeeD-ON® Facepiece Harness. Madeof flame- and heat-resistant Kevlar Fabric, the harnessfeatures a hair-net type, five-point suspension that canbe easily and securely adjusted at each point.
Lenses on MSA full facepieces are molded frompolycarbonate, and a special super hardcoating providesa tough, durable facepiece lens to resist scratching.
Firehawk® MMRThe Firehawk MMR, MSA’s mask-mounted regulatorassembly, is available with two different attachmentsystems, the Firehawk MMR truly redefines ease-of-useand ease-of-maintenance, combined with outstandingperformance.
The Firehawk second-stage regulator features a uniqueSlide-To-Connect (STC) attachment system that allowsfirefighters to hang the regulator on the facepiece in the“ready position,” then simply push it into the facepiecewhen SCBA air is needed. Doffing of the regulator, whilewearing gloves, is also easy with two large releasebuttons that automatically turn-off the flow of air as theregulator is doffed. A dual-swivel feature on the pressurehose provides maximum freedom-of-head movementand the silicone hose material ensures hose flexibilityeven at very cold temperatures.
In addition to the STC system, MSA also offers a secondconnection option for the Firehawk Regulator, the Push-to-Connect (PTC). The PTC’s Adapter self-centersthe Firehawk regulator and the loud dual sound of theregulator engaging onto the facepiece provides you withconfidence that the Firehawk PTC is securely attached toyour facepiece—an action that takes just seconds, whenseconds count!
Maintenance is also a breeze, considering the Firehawkdesign requires no tools, adhesives, or sealants, and hasapproximately 70% fewer parts as compared to otherregulators on the market. Additionally, there are nointernal adjustments required. Any adjustments to theregulator may be accomplished at a single adjustmentpoint through the outlet port of the regulator.
Ease of use and maintenance, combined withoutstanding performance, makes the Firehawk MMRclearly the product of choice.
Heads-Up Display (HUD)When you open your Air Mask’s cylindervalve, the HUD automatically activates,displaying the cylinder pressure reading in25% increments.
ClearCommandCommunications SystemMSA’s ClearCommand CommunicationsSystem is designed specifically to meet the modern communications needs offirefighters. It features an internallymounted microphone coupled with a large-diameter (50mm) amplifier speakerfor optimal clarity and volume. Using aproprietary circuit design, the systemdelivers more than twice the volume of a facepiece alone. Mounted in an “out-of-the-way” position, theClearCommand System doesn’t block vision or mechanical communication. The Ultra Elite’s mechanical voicemitter is still fully functional, even with the system installed.

Rescue BeltIn a continuation of MSA’s pursuit of firefighter safety, the Rescue Belt is being introduced to the fire service. This is an NFPA-compliant emergency egress system that is unique to MSA. The belt can be integrated into the carrier and harnessassembly of the MSA Vulcan or Airframe Carrier and Harness assemblies. A 50 foot or 75 foot Kevlar line with a descenderand carabiner is weaved into the belt to allow a trapped fire fighter to escape to either the ground or to a floor below the fire.
The belt is available in three lengths, standard (56 inches), mid-size (66 inches) and long (76 inches).
Emergency Egress System
Carrier & Harness AssemblyFireHawk M7 Carrier and Harness AssemblyThe one component of any SCBA that has the most impact on firefighter comfort is the carrier and harness assembly. MSA isintroducing a new carrier and harnessassembly that places an emphasis onfirefighter comfort while maintaining therobustness and reliability that is expected in the fire service. The carrier and harnesscomes standard with large side handles and a central attachment point for pullingfirefighters to safety in rescue scenarios. The swiveling lumbar pad providesmaximum freedom of movement andcomfort when crawling or climbing.
The assembly utilizes the proven pieces from previous generations of Air Masks such as the tunneled shoulder straps for hose containment, and tri-bar slides foreasy removal/installation of the waist belt and shoulder straps.
All units are equipped with double-pull waist belts and an optional chest strap is available.
Carbon-Wrapped CylindersCarbon-wrapped Cylinders are the lightest SCBA air cylindersever developed by MSA.

A new way to monitor vital information• Each MSA base station can monitor up to 50 firefighters, and you can use
multiple base stations on a single computer.• The FireHawk M7 Air Mask with telemetry transmits to incident command
the firefighter’s name, team assignment, cylinder pressure, service-time emaining, PASS alarms (motion or manual), thermal alarms, battery status,radio connectivity, and evacuation acknowledgement.
A fireground management system• Personalized ID tags for each firefighter tell incident command exactly who
is on scene.• An integrated PAR (personnel accountability report) timer helps manage
radio calls to each team.• Incident command can manually add firefighters who are not wearing an
SCBA or mutual aid firefighters, so all personnel can be accounted for.
Intuitive and easy to use• Assign firefighters to teams by clicking on a firefighter’s icon and dragging it
to another team.• A volume of critical information is available at a glance of the screen, due to
the large number of firefighters that can be displayed and the pictorial for-mat of the information.
• Receive both audible and visual indications of critical events such as PASSalarms or low-pressure alarms.
Accountability is key to every firefighter’s safety on a fire scene. MSA’s newoptional Accountability System revolutionizes fireground safety by combiningthe latest computer software with a high-performance radio module and thefield-proven technology of MSA’s ICM Tx Integrated PASS.

A two-way evacuation feature• Incident command is assured that firefighters receive all evacuation messages.
When incident command transmits the alarm through the FireHawk M7 AirMask, they’ll know the firefighter received it, because the unit automaticallysends a confirmation message to the base station.
• By simply pressing a button on his/her own control module, a firefighter cansend a manual confirmation to acknowledge that they have received and understand the critically important evacuation message.
• Firefighters will hear the evacuation alarm on their own personal PASS device. Also, visual indications in the HUD and an icon on the control module will alertthe firefighter that it is time to evacuate.
• An individual firefighter, a team of firefighters, or all firefighters can be evacuated with the click of a button.
• Although certain concrete and steel commercial structures can challenge anyradio signal, MSA’s Accountability System coverage with radio technology provides highly reliable performance for a 1-mile line-of-sight range.
• Due to the spread-spectrum design, it does not interfere with other high-bandradio frequency equipment.
• For additional safety, both base station and firefighter modules have an icon message to inform users if a firefighter falls out of radio signal range, so that alternate accountability measures, such as voice radio contact withteammates, can be taken.

ClearCommand® HCS Helmet Communication System
The Helmet Communication System from MSA is a state-of-the-art radio interface device whichsignificantly improves the user’s ability to receive and send messages even in loud ambient-noiseenvironments. It goes wherever you go. The system consists of a helmet-mounted microphoneand ear speaker assembly that weighs 5.3 ounces and easily snaps onto the user’s fire helmet orindustrial-style helmet’s ratchet suspension. The helmet mic/ear speaker assembly connects to alapel microphone or optional stand-alone PTT (push-to-talk) unit. The lapel microphone and PTTare permanently fitted with a connector for attachment to the specific radio of choice. TheHelmet Communication System also offers a plug-in truck communication adapter that can beused by firefighters, along with their helmet microphone assembly, on the way to a fire scene orother incident. Once the firefighter arrives at the scene, the truck system cable is unplugged fromthe helmet microphone, and the helmet microphone cable end is connected to the user’s lapelmic or PTT.
The user of the Helmet Communication System has uninterrupted communication fromthe time the alarm sounds until the incident is over.

ClearCommand Communications System for Ultra Elite Facepieces
MSA’s ClearCommand Communications System isdesigned specifically to meet the moderncommunications needs of firefighters. Because it’s available in two versions, amplifier and amplifierwith radio interface, firefighting teams can be properlyfitted for the job at hand. Also, the systems are designedfor “shared-use” of the amplifier with a unique “bus-bar”arrangement, so individual issue is not required.
The ClearCommand systems feature an internallymounted microphone coupled with a large-diameter(50mm) amplifier speaker for optimal clarity andvolume. Using a proprietary circuit design, the systemdelivers more than twice the volume of a facepiecealone. Mounted in an “out-of-the-way” position, the ClearCommand System doesn’t block vision ormechanical communication. The Ultra Elite’s mechanical voicemitter is still fully functional, even with the system installed.
The radio interface version features the same amplifieras the amp-only version, combined with an ear-speakerfor incoming radio messages and a lapel mic assemblyfor interface with over 100 radios. The lapel mic can beused as a component of the ClearCommand system oras a stand-alone hand mic.
Both the amplifier and radio interface models areintrinsically safe, and meet the applicable requirementsof NIOSH and NFPA 1981, 2002 edition.

MSA’s APR adapter provides firefighters with theversatility they need to perform all tasks at the fire ground with one common facepiece. From fire-fighting to overhaul to homeland security,firefighters can switch from a positive-pressurefacepiece to a negative-pressure air-purifyingrespirator simply by engaging the APR Adapter. The APR Adapter uses MSA’s comprehensive family line of air-purifying cartridges; select from the Advantage cartridges or our CBA/RCA canisters to protect against a multitude of airborne contaminants.
The APR Adapter is designed for use in non-IDLHenvironments and is NIOSH-approved. Contact MSA for more information.

Spectacle Kit for Full-Facepiece RespiratorsFor use by workers who must wear corrective lenses, the Spectacle Kit can be easily inserted into thefacepiece. The kit includes a wire support, rubber guide, and pair of metal-frame spectacles. There are twokits for the Ultra Elite facepiece; one uses a side wire support to hold the lenses in the facepiece, while theother uses a center support to position the unit. Desired adjustment is obtained by moving the spectacles inand out of the rubber guide and up and down the wire support. One size of spectacle frame is used (S-7shape, 48-mm lens size) with Universal Bridge Corrective Lenses that can be obtained from local sources. The Spectacle Kit can be used with a nosecup.
Nosecups
Molded from a soft rubber compound that isresistant to facial oils, the optional nosecup helps reduce the possibility of lens fogging. The nosecup is particularly effective under con di tions of high humidity and/or lowtemperatures by inhibiting contact of moist ex ha led air with the facepiece lens. A nosecup can be easily affixed to the facepiece without tools. Any size nosecup may be installed in any size Ultra Elite Facepiece for a cus tom ized, morecomfortable fit.
