Unitor emergency escape breathing device sets
Lloyd s Register issues Safety Alert regarding fake safety equipment regarding Unitor emergency escape breathing device sets (EEBD) sets.
Wilhelmsen Ships Service (WSS), a manufacturer of EEBD-sets, has contacted Lloyds Register to advise that fake EEBD-sets have been found in service. On receipt of a batch of EEBD-sets for annual inspection, it was discovered that the bags and EEBD-sets were fake copies of the Unitor/MSA type Uniscape 15H. We have been further advised that the fakes do not work as they are supposed to and will create an extremely dangerous situation for the user when they are needed for escape.
