SCBA servicing in Kota Kinabalu, on the MSA SmartCHECK bench
Breathing apparatus servicing in Kota Kinabalu, on an MSA SmartCHECK test bench in the TopBorneo workshop. Send your make, model and quantity.

TopBorneo does its SCBA servicing in Kota Kinabalu, in its own workshop at Lot No 8, Lean Seng Industrial, Jln Undan.
Self-contained breathing apparatus is examined by hand first and then measured on an MSA SmartCHECK test bench, so each part gets a reading instead of an opinion. Send the make, model and number of sets to crm@topborneo.com first.

What happens to a set in this workshop
TopBorneo describes the work on the SmartCHECK bench in five steps.
- Inspection of the breathing apparatus, by hand and by eye.
- A functional test of the set on the bench.
- Fault finding, if the set does not perform as it should.
- A check against the safety standards that apply to the equipment.
- Recording of the result.
Which reading belongs to which part, from the full face mask to the demand valve and the complete set, is set out on the breathing apparatus servicing page.
Who has sets serviced here
Breathing apparatus in Sabah works in a few clear places: on board vessels calling at Kota Kinabalu, with the emergency response teams at plants and mills, and with contractors who go into tanks and confined spaces. Each set carries its own record, and a crew that keeps sets ready for a rescue needs that record to be current.
Say how many sets you have and what condition they are in, and TopBorneo comes back on what the servicing involves for that batch. There is a second TopBorneo office in Labuan, telephone 087-462 259, for anyone working from the island.
Scheduled maintenance, recertification and repair
TopBorneo works to a scheduled maintenance cycle of six months or twelve months. Around that cycle it handles recertification, in which it deals with the relevant authorities or certifying bodies, warranty claims on faulty equipment, and repair, where the condition of the set decides what is put right.
The sets and masks themselves are on the respiratory protection page, and the address, hours and the other benches at Jln Undan are on the Kota Kinabalu office and workshop page.
Common questions
Where can breathing apparatus be serviced in Kota Kinabalu?
In the TopBorneo workshop at Lot No 8, Lean Seng Industrial, Jln Undan, 88450 Kota Kinabalu, telephone 088-422 259. Sets are inspected by hand and measured on an MSA SmartCHECK test bench at that address. The office is open Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 5pm.
What does TopBorneo do to an SCBA set in Kota Kinabalu?
Five steps: inspection of the apparatus, a functional test on the bench, fault finding where a set does not perform, a check against the safety standards for that equipment, and recording of the result. Cylinders are a separate job on a separate bench in the same workshop.
Can the cylinders be done at the same time?
Yes, and that is the sensible way to send them. Breathing air cylinders are pressure tested on a Galiso water jacket tester at the same address. See cylinder hydrostatic testing in Kota Kinabalu, and send the sets and cylinders in together.
Can sets from Labuan be serviced in Kota Kinabalu?
Yes. The SmartCHECK bench stands in the workshop, and there is a TopBorneo office in Labuan Times Square on the island, telephone 087-462 259. Send the make, model and quantity and TopBorneo comes back on the servicing your sets need.
