Posicheck
The Only NFPA-Compliant SCBA Test Stand

Posichek3 SCBA tester is the only approved SCBA flow test device for government mandated annual flow testing. Biosystems manufactures the Posichek 3 unit. Airworks sells the Posicheck3 for Scott flow tests, MSA flow tests, Draeger flow tests, ISI flow tests, Interspiro flow tests, Cairns flow tests, North flow tests and 3M flow tests. The Posicheck 3 evaluates the operational fitness of your SCBA through dynamic tests and functional checks against performance criteria set down by NIOSH and the NFPA. American Airworks offers great pricing on your Posichek ... call us today..

Easy and Automatic Testing

Just attach the fully-assembled SCBA to be tested to the Posichek3 test-head, and choose the tests you wish to conduct. The PosiChek3 "Quick Test" fully evaluates the operational readiness of an SCBA in less than 2 minutes and consumes less than 1% of the SCBA's air supply. Once the tests have been completed, the information can be printed immediately or saved in a user-specified database for future retrieval. The PosiChek3 makes record-keeping easy!

Enhanced Precision (EP)Transducer

The Enhanced Precision (EP) High Pressure Transducer became standard issue with every new PosiChek sold as of March 1, 2004. The EP transducer was developed to keep pace with new test standards that are being adopted by the SCBA manufacturing community in an effort to improve user safety.  The EP Transducer gives a more precise measurement of pressure within the high-pressure manifold during testing.

The EP transducer is also available as an upgrade for PosiChek3 units currently in use.

Note:  The EP transducer is incompatible with all 16-bit versions of PosiChek Software, including generic and OEM 16 bit software. Call Biosystems for details on upgrading your Posi-chek3 software.

Sound Detection System (SDS)

Biosystems released the 'Sound Detection System' (SDS) on March 1, 2004 as an optional upgrade.  The Sound Detection Systems (SDS) includes a microphone and all necessary hardware to eliminate human interaction during the primary audible alarm test.  The PosiChek must be equipped with the EP transducer to accept the SDS.

Notice: MSA OEM software requires SDS to function properly. SDS is not required by other SCBA brands.

The SDS is available as an upgrade for PosiChek units currently in use. The PosiChek must be equipped with the EP transducer to accept the SDS. 32 bit software is required with the SDS.

Easily Verify SCBA Performance


PosiChek3 completely evaluates SCBA readiness. The following tests are available:

  • Mask leak-check
  • Exhalation check-valve opening pressure
  • Static mask-pressure
  • Bypass flow-rate
  • Pressure gauge accuracy
  • Low pressure alarm activation
  • Visual inspection
  • Breathing resistance at standard (40 LPM) work-rate
  • Breathing resistance at maximum (100 LPM) work-rate

PC Requirements

The PosiChek3 uses your own IBM-compatible PC to run the tests and store the results. Test results can be printed at the time of the test, or retrieved from the user-specified database at any time in the future. The minimum PC requirements for the 32-bit PosiChek3 Software are as follows:
  • Windows 98, ME, NT (SP 5.0 or higher), 2000, XP
  • Internet Explorer version 4.01 (SP2 or higher)
  • A minimum of 100 Mb of available space on the PC's hard drive.
  • Parallel Port (Required)
  • CD-ROM Drive

Notice:  The PosiChek3 is not USB-compatible. Many new PCs are now being delivered with a USB port instead of a parallel port. The PC MUST have a properly configured parallel port to interface with the PosiChek3.  Although USB-Parallel port converters are now available, the routing through USB hardware is incompatible with the PosiChek3.

Call Ted Mills, at 800-523-7222, for compatibility and sales questions.
