CBRN Ultra Elite Gas Mask
(Facepiece with Head Harness)
Size w/Rubber w/SpeeD-ON
Head Harness Head Harness
Firefighters do not always need SCBA protection, especially outside the immediate fire
scene. Once the hazard has been assessed, air-purifying respirators (APR) may make
the most sense for low concentrations of certain contaminants. With the new Ultra Elite
CBRN Gas Mask, your department benefits from using a common platform facepiece
for both APR and SCBA applications, allowing standardized training and eliminating
redundant fit-testing.
APR and SCBA facepieces should not be used interchangeably. For that reason, MSA
is introducing the Ultra Elite CBRN Gas Mask for use in the fire service and to first
responders. The facepiece has been trusted in the fire service for more than 10 years.
In that time, the Ultra Elite has been field-proven to provide firefighters with exceptional
fit, comfort, and value.
The MSA CBRN Canister meets or exceeds all performance requirements of the new
NIOSH CBRN Standard by effectively removing harmful gases, vapors, and particulates
so that the user can confidently breathe safely. The canister contains chemical sorbents
and a P100 filter to attract, retain, and neutralize contaminants.
Safety
• Super-soft black Hycar rubber exceeds the CBRN permeation requirements
• Large lens with 83% unimpeded vision
• Centrally located inlet port for secure, comfortable fit and feel
• Centrally located mechanical speaking diaphragm for clear communications
• Optional ClearCommand® Amplifier for increased communication capabilities
Simplicity
• Available with a 5-point rubber or SpeeD-ON® head harness
• Identical sealing surfaces for both SCBA and Gas Mask facepieces—
eliminating the need for redundant fit testing
• Simplifies respiratory protection training program
Reliability
• The Ultra Elite facepiece is fire-service proven, with over a decade of trusted use
• MSA has been making gas masks since World War I
• Largest supplier of gas masks to the law enforcement market

Evolution® Thermal Imaging Cameras (TICs)
Comparison of Fire Service TIC Performance* Evolution 5200 TIC Performance
High and Low Sensitivity Only MSA delivers High Sense image quality up to 320°F, the range that
80% of the time matches the temperature range in most structural fires.
Most TICs generate thermal images in either High Sense or Low Sense
In addition, only MSA delivers increased sensitivity in Low Sense mode with
modes, depending on the temperature of the scene. High Sense mode
better high temperature image quality. The shaded color in both High and

Low Sense indicates the Evolution 5200's new Heat Seeker PLUS.

FiveStar® Alarm
The FiveStar Alarm provides the flexibility to meet your gas
detection needs, yet is incredibly simple to use. The durable,
high-impact case makes it long-lasting, while the advanced
ergonomic design and software reduce worker load and
simplify operation. This means less time spent training and
more time in service. Over its life, the FiveStar Alarm’s ease
of use, safety features, and long-term money savings combine
to provide the best in gas detection available today.
The FiveStar Alarm’s simplicity is obvious
from the start: The FiveStar Alarm saves money:
• Three well-marked, easy-to-use keys. • Unbeatable warranty and service.
• Display faces user. • Long-life combustible sensor.
• Industry leading RFI protection. • One-button calibration saves training and gas.
• Flexible smart sensors. • 5-gas capability means one instrument can do the job of multiple detectors.
• Weatherproof—IP54-rated. • Battery “gas gauge” accurately depicts remaining battery run time.
• 20-hour NiMH battery option means one battery can do the job of two.
The FiveStar Alarm’s advanced software features Gas sensors available—you can order the FiveStar Alarm with sensors to detect:
mean safer operation:
• Combustible gas (0–100% LEL or 0–5% methane)
• Limits on sensor zeroing.
• Oxygen (0–25%)
• Limits on one-button calibration.
and up to three of the following gases:
• User acknowledges configuration changes.
• Ammonia 0–100 ppm • Nitric oxide 0–100 ppm
• Data recording is standard.
• Carbon monoxide 0–2000 ppm • Nitrogen dioxide 0–100 ppm
• Chlorine 0–20 ppm • Phosphine 0–5 ppm
• Chlorine Dioxide 0–5 ppm • Sulfur dioxide 0–100 ppm
For more complete information, please refer to • Hydrogen sulfide 0–500 ppm
Bulletin 0816-06-MC. More gas detection capabilities are continually introduced. Call for availability of other gas detection
capabilities. Some configuration limitations apply.
FiveStar Alarms can be ordered in one of two convenient ways. Either select from the most popular kit combinations below or refer to MSA’s highly effective
custom-ordering process, “Assemble-to-Order.”
