CTRTA Daily SCBA & PPE Inspection

Student pre-use inspection record • linked to CTRTA Equipment Tracker

This is a CTRTA daily user inspection based on the NFPA 1850 care-and-inspection framework and must be used with manufacturer instructions and CTRTA policy. A failed item means the affected PPE or SCBA is not considered ready for training until it is evaluated and cleared.
Select the assigned mask number, cylinder serial, and SCBA pack serial. Cylinder and pack choices come directly from the CTRTA Equipment Tracker. Other PPE numbers are entered as issued. Unmatched PPE is flagged for staff review.
