Classroom1 DayPart timeCoursesNorwegian



CA-EBS is maintained in accordance with OPITO standard course code 5902, and contains a theoretical review of compressed air as an emergency breathing system, as well as practical use.

This includes the difference between compressed air and the emergency breathing system used in the Norwegian sector, advantages and disadvantages, hazards, the equipment used and control of the equipment.

Practical exercises involve checking the equipment before use, dressing and adjusting the system and triggering and using the emergency breathing system. All practical exercises are carried out in the classroom.

The shoulder width is measured by certified personnel in accordance with guidelines given by The passenger size working group, The helicopter safety steering group and Step Change in Safety.

After the participant has been measured, he or she is categorized into one of two categories - Non Extra Broad or Extra Broad.

If you are not extra broad-shouldered, you can sit where you want in the helicopter, while those who are categorized as extra broad-shouldered get designated seats in the helicopter, then with large windows as an emergency exit.

The shoulder width is measured on bare skin, so the participant must wear a t-shirt / singlet for the measurement itself.
