operation of breathing
recognize risks (oxygen deficiency, health hazards, limit values)
dependent and self-contained breathing protection (scope, operation and limitations)
construction, operation of independent respiratory protection equipment
factors affecting the degree of protection calculations: pressure and residual pressure, air consumption, safety margin
explain points of attention when using a hose connection (bottle cart, breathing air net)
