SergeantMajorGray Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share #3 Posted February 24, 2016 Any ideas? I thought it was a microphone attachment for a m17a2 mask but it doesn't fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro Posted February 26, 2016 Share #4 Posted February 26, 2016 It's a blower/pusher fan for a gas mask. Fits over the C2 or C2A1 filter and pushes air through to aid in breathing and to create positive pressure in the mask.Variant you have has the early 3 pin connector. I'm unsure what they were originally for, though I do have what appears to be a trial/experimental aviator configuration using the same blowers. The same type of blower was later configured for the M45 air warrior mask; the difference being the power plug. I've seen M45 ones with 1991 production dates (before the M45 existed), leading me to believe they are modified from the type like you have.I attached a pic of that setup I mentioned. The cables on the blowers hook into a switch box that has a receptacle for a 6v battery.-Cheers from another NC resident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this fits into the collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
