Product catalog summary
Description: The Environics® Model 6202, known as the Reduced Oxygen Breathing Device 2 (ROBD2), is a portable, computerized gas-blending instrument designed to simulate hypoxia without altering atmospheric pressure. It is primarily used by the U.S. Navy for aircrew training and hypoxia research. The device mixes breathing air and nitrogen to mimic oxygen levels at altitudes up to 34,000 feet, using Thermal Mass Flow Controllers calibrated to NIST standards. Safety features include over-pressurization prevention, oxygen content control, and an emergency oxygen dump switch. The system is user-friendly with a menu-driven interface and built-in self-tests.
Features: The ROBD2 can simulate altitudes from 0 to 34,000 feet with oxygen levels ranging from 21% to 4.4%. It includes an integrated pulse oximeter and oxygen analyzer, and an emergency switch for 100% oxygen delivery.
Options: Available options include a shipping case, dual stage regulators, a positive pressure breathing option, additional sensors, a nitrogen/air generator, and a simulator accessory package.
Applications: The device is used for aircrew and high-altitude training, medical stress testing, and as a hypoxia simulator.
Specifications: The ROBD2 operates on 110-220 VAC power, with gas inputs for nitrogen and air at 40 psig and oxygen at 20 psig. It features a built-in pulse oximeter with a range of 0-100% SpO2 and a pulse rate range of 30-250 bpm. The oxygen sensor has a range of 1-100% with high accuracy. The device supports RS232 communication and is designed for one subject under test. It measures 12” x 17.5” x 23.5” and weighs 55 lbs.
Performance and Storage: The device operates between 15°C to 35°C and can be stored between -10°C to 50°C.

Reduced Oxygen Breathing Device 2 (ROBD2) Licensed from U.S. Navy under U.S. Patent Application No. 10/959.764 DESCRIPTION FEATURES The Environics® Model 6202, Reduced Oxygen Breathing Device 2 (ROBD2), is a portable computerized gas-blending instrument used to produce hypoxia without changes in atmospheric pressure. This simulated altitude exposure can be utilized for both research and training purposes. The U. S. Navy currently uses the ROBD2 to train aircrew to recognize the signs and symptoms of hypoxia and to perform the appropriate emergency procedures and additionally, conducts hypoxia research. The ROBD2 uses Thermal Mass Flow Controllers (MFC) to mix breathing air and nitrogen to produce the sea level equivalent atmospheric oxygen contents for altitudes up to 34,000 feet. The MFC’s are calibrated on a primary flow standard traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The ROBD2 introduces pressure changes and gas expansion as a function of altitude. Several safety features are built into the device, including prevention of over pressurization of the subject’s mask, prevention of reduced oxygen contents below those being requested for a particular altitude and an emergency dump switch that will supply 100% O2 to subjects in distress. The software is menu driven. The main operators menu consists of three selections, simplifying the use of the system for the field operator. Built-in self-tests verify all system component functionality before the operation of the system can begin. If any self-test fails the system will not operate. The system is designed to work with both bottled gases and gases produced by a Nitrogen/air generator (available separately). Environics offers an optional Simulator Accessory Package to simply setup of a fully integrated system. 0-34,000 feet elevation 21% oxygen to 4.4% oxygen Integrated pulse oximeter with finger probe Integrated oxygen analyzer Emergency Oxygen dump switch for delivery of 100% oxygen OPTIONS Shipping case with wheels Dual stage regulators with braided SS hoses Positive pressure breathing option (NAVY) Additional pulse oximeter probes, sensors Nitrogen/air generator Simulator Accessory Package ROBD APPLICATIONS Aircrew training and research High altitude training and research Medical stress testing Hypoxia Simulator
