- thi isi's are realy simple. they are basically idiot proof as well. we have viking masks with isi packs. i don't have a pic of a mask right now. there is an automatic pass, so as soon as you turn on the air it comes on the facepiece is all one unit so the resperator is part of the mask there is a lever type thing on it you push down to go on air and have it up for ambient air. then inside just at your cheekbone intop of where the rubber seal that goes around ur mouth and nose, there is 4 lights:green, yellow,orange,red. they tell you a quick status of youraie without looking at the gauge in the pass. we have voice amplified resperators and digital readout for the pass. i will try to post a few better pics. both of the mask and the pack itself so you can see it better
