Step 1)
TM
Install cylinders on PORTA-PAK tray. Secure cylinders by tightening the straps at the buckle
and mate the velcro sections to prevent slipping. 2216 psi (153 bar) and 4500psi ( 310 bar) cylin-
ders can be used.
Step 2)
Install universal CGA-347 hand tight nuts to the cylinder valves and tighten. Insure both bleeder
valves are closed by turning fully clockwise.
Step 3)
Open one cylinder. At this time the low pressure warning alarm will sound, until it sets itself at
approximately 1000psi (69 bar). Check reading on gauge to verify that cylinder is full. Close the
cylinder.
Step 4) Low Pressure Alarm Test
Set the required respirator pressure with the regulator control knob and bleed the pressure at either
the relief valve, or by partially engaging a male plug into one of the respirator couplings. This
despressurizes the manifold and simulates low cylinder pressure. The low pressure warning alarm
will sound at approximately 500psi (35 bar).
Step 5)
Open the other cylinder. At this time the low pressure warning alarm will sound until it sets itself
at approximately 1000psi (69 bar). Check reading on gauge to verify cylinder is full.
Optional (Feature for PAK-3HI only
Install high pressure connect whip to auxiliary inlet port (CGA-347). This step can be done after
step 5, or at anytime during operation of the system.
Step 6)
Couple respirators and lengths of hoses to the manifold and readjust pressure regulator if neces-
sary. The system is now operational.
