MIRA Safety MD-2 Child Respirator

The MIRA Safety MD-2 Child Escape Respirator is a complete CBRN child escape respirator with PAPR designed to help children breathe more easily during emergency evacuation situations. This system includes an expandable mask/hood, blower unit, tubing, back/waist carrier, integrated water bottle, and Israeli NBC filter, giving families, emergency planners, municipalities, first responders, and safety teams a ready-to-use child respiratory protection system.

Unlike standard negative-pressure masks, this powered air-purifying respirator for children uses a battery-powered blower to move filtered air into the hood. The blower provides 45 liters per minute of airflow, helping overpressurize the hood interior and reduce breathing resistance for children who may struggle with adult-style respirators. The system runs on four CR123A batteries, with the product page listing up to 15 hours of continuous blower runtime in the main feature section.

The MIRA CM-3M CBRN child escape respirator is suitable for children as young as 2 years old through small teens. It offers multiple carrying options, including a back carrier recommended for ages 4 and under and a waist/belt mount for ages 4+. The compact folded design also makes it easier to store in a trunk, backpack, emergency kit, closet, school safety supply, or family preparedness bag.

Built for emergency respiratory protection, this child escape hood with filter uses a hood constructed from 4-layer PVC/nylon/nylon/PVC for tear resistance. The product page states that the system has been tested for 100% aerosol protection and tested to provide up to 240 minutes of effective protection from mustard gas according to MIL-STD-282 method 204.1.1. Actual protection depends on the filter used, contaminant type, concentration, breathing rate, and environmental conditions.

This positive pressure child respirator accepts standard 40mm NATO threaded filters, and the blower can also be attached to a standard 40mm NATO gas mask for other compatible respirator setups. The integrated hydration system allows drinking while wearing the unit, which is an important practical feature during extended emergency use.
