Grace Industries: SuperPASS 3, NFPA 1982, 2007 Edition

The ONLY Stand-Alone Personal Alert Safety System designed to be used independent of an SCBA.

Choose from the following options:

SPIII-H-A:

Motion & temperature sensing, auto on

SPIII-RTD-A:

Motion & external temperature sensing, auto on

SPIII-M-A:

Motion sensing only, auto on

SuperPASS™ 3 was designed and tested to meet the latest standards, the most rigorous durability requirements, and the life safety needs of firefighters on any kind of call.

Begins working automatically, even when attached to your Turnouts. Depend on SuperPASS 3 to be on alert in any situation, whether you’re wearing an SCBA, or not. The exclusive Accountability Storage Key automatically activates the system’s sensing mode the moment your turnout coat—or any gear with the SuperPASS 3 attached—is removed from its storage position. Plus this completely re-engineered and improved PASS system operates three times longer than previous designs. You can expect over 200 hours of battery life in Sensing Mode, and 10 to 12 hours in Alarm, on a single set of 4 AA alkaline batteries.

Engineered to save lives under the most difficult conditions. The translucent silicone cover protects the SuperPASS 3 from severe impact and vibration. While an advanced Radel high-temperature polymer enclosure guards the system from exposure to moisture, chemicals, and other hostile agents.

Advanced motion detection. Grace Industries developed a new method of detecting motion…or the lack of motion. Their state-of-the-art solid-state, 3-axis accelerometer senses a broad range of motion and is not position sensitive. It has been proven to deliver more accurate results and fewer false alerts, which are common in similar motion detectors.

Extreme visibility. Intense, discernable sound. High intensity LEDs illuminate from inside the case, actually causing the PASS to glow. These LEDs strobe, flash, and pulsate to indicate PASS status (Sensing, Pre-alert, and Alarm Modes) with easily recognized colors and patterns. Dual resonating sound cavities produce 95+dBA, making SuperPASS 3 the loudest NFPA Compliant Stand-alone PASS available to the fire service. More important, the sound signature is designed to generate multiple tones that sweep through a range of 500-4000 Hz., with a momentary pause every 4 seconds, allowing the SuperPASS 3 to be identified and tracked audibly.

Manual Alarm for any emergency. The user can put the SuperPASS 3 into alarm mode at any time, for any kind of emergency, by manually pressing the alarm button on the front of the unit.

Active Data-Logging. The SuperPASS 3 automatically records a data-log of all PASS status change events. The data-log is stored in non-volatile memory and can be retrieved via the infrared port on the PASS by utilizing the Grace data-log retrieval software. The last 8,192 required data-log events are stored and date/time stamped down to 1 second resolution.

Two Temperature Sensing Methods to choose from:

Top view of SuperPASS 3 RTD, Showing temperature of the present environment
  1. Model SP3-RTD — Resistance Temperature Detector. The first unit with a temperature display that provides firefighters with accurate feedback of the environmental temperature. The rugged RTD accurately senses temperatures up to 1,000° F with the reading displayed on a large LED that’s easy to see in a dimly lit or smoke filled environment. A time weighted average of heat exposure activates the audible alarm when temperatures reach potentially dangerous levels.
  1. Model SPC-H — Integrated Temperature Detector. An internal sensor monitors thermal inertia exposure. The audible heat alarm is activated when the firefighter exceeds a predetermined time-weighted average temperature threshold.

Two simple attachment methods. The time-tested wire clip simply and securely holds the SuperPASS 3 to SCBA straps. Or use the "SA-clip" to easily attach the PASS to turn-out gear in a stand-alone configuration for use without an SCBA.

Be protected. And be accounted for. Automatically. With the SuperPASS 3 Accountability Key. SuperPASS 3 is designed to be attached to a turnout coat, SCBA harness, or other gear…and tethered to the gear’s storage location in the fire station or a seat in a vehicle. Just take the gear, leaving the tether and Accountability Storage Key behind. When the key is removed, SuperPASS 3 turns On. An audible operational signal and a visual green LED wig-wag display confirm that the SuperPASS 3 unit is active and in the Sensing mode. It cannot be turned OFF until the Accountability Storage Key is replaced. A clear identification window allows the user or department to personalize each Accountability Key with photos, names, numbers, department ID, bar-codes, etc. to provide a quick accounting of personnel on the scene.
