Spectacle Kit 17 Spectacle Kit WARNING Before using a spectacle kit, an optometrist must inspect the spectacle kit and prescribe the correct lenses to fit into the lens frame on the spectacle kit. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious personal injury or death. (1) Flip the head harness over the front of the facepiece so the harness is covering the lens of the facepiece. This will open up the faceblank to make it easier to install the spectacle kit.
Spectacle Kit (4) Take one end of the wire frame and push it up into the facepiece so it follows the edge where the lens and the faceblank meet. (5) The end of the wire frame must be positioned into small pockets in the faceblank on the edge of the lens. Repeat step (4) on the opposite side. US (6) The lens frame can be adjusted up/down and in/out depending on the facial features. Don the facepiece and adjust to optimize visibility.
Telemetry Module 18 Telemetry Module The telemetry module is designed to allow the SCBA to communicate with a remote base station while in use. The SCBA with telemetry module installed will transmit vital statistics such as cylinder pressure, thermal alarm (if thermal alarm is enabled), service time remaining, and PASS alarm to the base station. The base station also has the ability to send an evacuation command to the SCBA. The telemetry module uses a special version of the power module.
Telemetry Module Scanning the ID Tag into the Power Module Prior to pressurization of the SCBA and during use, the user can “tag in” to the SCBA. The most recent ID Tag data that is stored in the power module will be used as the identification for the SCBA in the data log or on the MSA Accountability System Software. If no ID Tag data has been assigned to the SCBA, the power module serial number will be used as its identification on the base station PC screen.
Telemetry Module Tagging In During Use (1) Take the ID tag and place in hand. (2) Move hand to the RFID reader location on the power module. It is located on the user side of the backplate on the left side. (3) Press and hold the green reset button until the RFID symbol appears. (4) Keep the tag located at the power module until the blue bar moves across the screen. If the tag was successful, the information will be displayed on the tag.
Telemetry Module WARNING Follow the PC or notebook computer manufacturer's recommendations for exposure to environmental conditions to prevent damage to the system. Failure to do so may cause system failure and the loss of monitoring capability on the PC or notebook computer. 18.1 Using the SCBA with Telemetry Module Logging the SCBA on to the Base Station (1) Turn on the control module on by opening the cylinder valve or by pressing and holding the alarm button.
Maintenance 19 Maintenance 19.1 Batteries WARNING - Replace the batteries following the use of the SCBA were the low battery alarm became active. Changing of alkaline batteries must be performed in a non-hazardous environment. Battery modules must only be removed and installed in a non-hazardous environment. Use only approved batteries in the battery module.
Maintenance List of approved batteries that can be used in the alkaline battery pack Duracell Procell PC1400 Duracell MN1400 - Panasonic Evolta C-LR14 - Panasonic Industrial LR14XWA - Industrial Panasonic Powerline - Rayovac Ultra Pro LR14 - Rayovac LR14 - Energizer EN93 - Energizer E93 NOTE: The temperature class is T4 when the above alkaline cells are installed within the alkaline battery pack, except the temperature class is T3C when the Energizer EN93 alkaline cells are installed within the alkaline ba
Maintenance (3) Remove the battery housing lid. (4) Remove all 6 batteries. (5) Check the inside of the battery module for damage, battery acid, corrosion, dirt and debris. (6) Ensure the battery contacts are in place and secure. (7) Insert 6 fresh C-cell batteries, ensuring the + contacts are in alignment. (8) Check the cover of the battery module for damage, dirt and debris, make sure the gasket is still in place and does not have any nicks or tears. Replace cover if necessary.
Maintenance Install the battery module in the power module: (10) Make sure before inserting the battery pack that the power module is clean and that no pins or grooves are damaged. (11) Insert the battery pack into the power module, ensure to align it with the grooves in the power module. Release the battery module and push in its top. The battery module will click into place.
Safekeeping and Storage 20 Safekeeping and Storage 20.1 Storage WARNING - - Prior to storage of the SCBA at temperatures below 0°F (-18°C), verify that the power module is equipped with full charge batteries. Verify that the control module displays a full charge battery status icon and that the HUD does not display low battery status indicators. DO NOT drop the cylinder or bump the valve knob.
