A CABA is a compressed air breathing apparatus used by firefighters, rescue workers and those to get breathable air in a dangerous to health or life atmosphere.
As mentioned in the question, a CABA is cylindrical in shape. The volume of a cylinder is calculated using the formula
V = πr2h
Where
V is the volume of the CABA cylinder
r = radius of the CABA
h = height of the CABA
A CABA comes in three standard capacities of 4, 6, or 6.8 liters.
