Question 1 of 27070

For use as protection from gas leaking from a refrigeration unit, each MODU must be equipped with a __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• MODU safety equipment requirements under 46 CFR for mobile offshore drilling units • Difference between respiratory protection (provides breathable air) and devices that only filter or detect gas • Hazards of refrigerant leaks (possible oxygen displacement and toxicity)

💭 Think About

• If a refrigerant leak displaces oxygen in an enclosed space, which device would still allow a person to breathe safely? • Which option is specifically designed to supply its own air source, rather than just filtering the surrounding air? • Which of these would be required emergency gear for entering a space where the atmosphere might be immediately dangerous to life or health?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option is independent of ambient air quality (brings its own air supply). • Check which choice is recognized as standard emergency escape/entry equipment for toxic or oxygen-deficient environments on MODUs. • Confirm that the device is intended for personal protection, not just ventilation or gas detection.
