USAGE WITH AIRLINE SYSTEM

The instructions in Section 1, Section 2 - "Cylinder mounting - single cylinder" and
Sections 3 - 6 apply to usage with airline system.
The airline supply hose is connected to the male coupling on manifold located on the
right-hand side (as worn) of the waist belt.
When operating on supplied air from the airline hose, the cylinder valve on the SCBA
should be closed.
Should the supply from the airline hose be disrupted, open the cylinder valve fully of
the SCBA.
When the cylinder valve has been opened, the user must immediately leave the
hazardous area. Disconnect the airline hose if necessary.
When operated with cylinder valve opened and used in conjunction with an automatic
switch between the airline supply and SCBA cylinder, the following instructions
should be observed.
Read and note the pressure reading on the pressure gauge of the SCBA.
1.
Connect the quick coupling of the SCBA to the airline supply hose. The higher
2.
pressure in the supply hose should shut off the supply from the SCBA.
After two minutes, read the pressure displayed on the pressure gauge again.
3.
During the elapsed time, there should be no measurable drop in pressure on the
gauge. This check will indicate that the higher pressure in the airline supply hose
is preventing air from being taken from the SCBA cylinder.
During usage in the hazardous environment, periodically check the pressure
4.
displayed on the gauge and if a decrease is noted discontinue use. Disconnect
the airline hose and exit to a safe area using the bail-out set and an escape
apparatus.
