Military SCBA tracking and breathing apparatus compliance software
Every air pack inspected on schedule. Every cylinder rotation documented. Every unit assigned and accounted for. PSTrax manages SCBA readiness for military hazmat, CBRN, and confined space operations with standardized documentation across every applicable unit.
The SCBA readiness gap in military hazmat and CBRN operations
Military units operating in hazmat, CBRN, and confined space environments depend on breathing apparatus that is inspected, documented, and ready to perform in conditions that do not allow for equipment uncertainty. When SCBA tracking runs on unit-level paper logs, inspection consistency varies across units and the documentation trail that command readiness reviews require does not exist in a centralised form.
The operational stakes make documentation gaps especially consequential. A unit that cannot demonstrate consistent SCBA inspection practices, cylinder rotation schedules, and hydrostatic test compliance is not ready for hazmat or CBRN operations in the way that command and safety standards require. Inconsistent documentation across units conducting the same operations creates liability that standardised tracking eliminates.
How PSTrax manages military SCBA compliance
Unit-level inspection scheduling
Inspection cycles are configured for each SCBA unit and deployed consistently across every applicable team. Daily, shift-based, and periodic inspection requirements run automatically and are visible to commanders.
Cylinder rotation and fill tracking
Every cylinder fill is logged by date, pressure, unit, and personnel. Rotation schedules ensure even usage across the cylinder inventory. Complete fill histories are searchable and reportable.
Hydrostatic test date management
Five-year hydrostatic test deadlines are tracked per cylinder across the entire SCBA inventory. Advance alerts ensure no test window is missed regardless of unit rotation or deployment schedule.
Mask assignment and service records
Every mask is assigned to its unit with complete transfer, service, and replacement history. The full record of every mask is available for command readiness review at any time.
Cross-unit standardization
The same inspection platform runs across every unit conducting SCBA operations, producing documentation that meets a consistent standard regardless of which team is on duty.
Built around breathing apparatus at the individual unit level
PSTrax SCBA tracking was built for the breathing apparatus compliance requirements of fire, military, and industrial environments. The system understands the relationship between air packs, cylinders, and masks at the individual unit level. Every command is configured to their specific SCBA inventory and inspection schedule before go-live.
"PSTrax has made our members better at knowing their vehicle and equipment inventories, which makes them more efficient during an incident."
"PSTrax has been a force multiplier for our agency. We were able to see a 70% reduction in EMS waste when using PSTrax. The staff at PSTrax are fantastic, and the support is incredible."
“The biggest value is taking a ton of formal and informal systems and putting them into one collective effort that provides information from the executive chief level all the way down to the user.”
“PSTrax is easy to use. It has provided real-time documentation of equipment and repairs”
“I would highly recommend PSTrax to all agencies as it has streamlined our program and allowed us to better track the systems that we are dealing with and the medications that are on hand.”

Frequently Asked Questions: Apparatus & Vehicles
-
Is SCBA tracked at the individual unit level?
Yes. Packs, cylinders, and masks are tracked individually, with their relationships recorded.
-
How are hydrostatic test dates managed?
Test dates are tracked per cylinder with alerts ahead of the deadline.
-
Can inspections be standardized across units?
Cross-unit standardization means the same inspection and reporting run everywhere, regardless of location.
-
Are mask assignments recorded?
Mask assignment and service records are kept per member and per unit.
