The Fire House Manikins demonstrate a good balance between temperature and abrasion resistance.

The manikin carcass is constructed using heavy duty canvas, reinforced with 38mm Nomex webbing as opposed to the polypropylene webbing found on the general purpose range – standard Polypropylene webbing will go brittle and melt at the high temperatures this manikin is designed to withstand.

The protective overalls are constructed using a Nomex blend material which conforms to EN11612 and offers good protection against high temperatures - it is permanently non-flammable and most commonly used in protective clothing to protect against heat and flames. The protective overalls are also reinforced using Nomex webbing to improve the abrasion resistance and strength – the overalls are fitted using 20mm Kevlar ties, as the standard Velcro fastening melt at these high temperatures. The ends of the arms, which have been identified as a high wear area, are reinforced with 5mm leather to provide extra protection.

The Fire House Manikin will easily withstand temperatures of around 160°C at floor level (400°C at the ceiling!) for many hours and are designed for general training in and around fire houses and hot fire cell training. The new manikins are far more robust than the previous FR models and are considerably cheaper. They will of course deteriorate if placed to close to naked flames or used in excessive temperatures, just as any fire kit would!

The dummies are weighted to produce an anatomically correct weight distribution and the 'feel' of an unconscious patient and are available in Toddler 10Kg, Youth 20Kg and Adult 30Kg, 50Kg and 70Kg weights.
