SAFETY INFORMATION
Follow the instructions below...
Do not use the respirator if the heads-up display (HUD) lights do not operate as described. Remove the respirator from
service and tag it for repair by authorized personnel.
Ensure that you can access the controls on this equipment at all times. Verify that other personal protective equipment
does not interfere with the protection provided by the equipment and does not interfere with the access to the controls.
Do not attach anything to, or carry anything on, the respirator shoulder strap buckles, as this could cause them to loosen
during use of the respirator.
Ensure the respirator straps and waist belt are properly adjusted and the loose ends of the straps and belt are secured so
that the respirator does not shift on your body and the face-to-facepiece seal is not disturbed.
Do not use the drag rescue loop as a handle for lifting a user off the ground or for lowering a user from a height.
Leave the area if the Vibralert actuates before the air supply is depleted to approximately 33%. This may indicate a failure
of the respirator.
Leave the contaminated area immediately when any end-of-service indicator alarm (Vibralert or HUD) actuates. This
occurs at 33% of the full pressure of the cylinder.
Follow the low temperature operation instructions when using the respirator in temperatures at or below freezing (32° F /
0° C).
The RIC/UAC system is for emergency use only. Do not use the RIC/UAC system to charge an air cylinder while the
respirator is being worn unless there is a compelling reason to assume the risk of injury.
If a leak is detected while performing an emergency filling process using RIC/UAC system in a IDLH** atmosphere,
discontinue the filling process and leave the IDLH atmosphere immediately.
When performing an emergency replenishment of a breathing air supply cylinder using the RIC/UAC, do not exceed 1500
psig/minute while the filling pressure is held constant at the cylinder's rated pressure.
When performing an emergency replenishment of a breathing air supply cylinder using the RIC/UAC where the
temperature is below freezing, see
"Using the RIC/UAC in Low
Verify that all moisture has been removed from the regulator after cleaning.
Do not store the respirator with worn or damaged components.
Do not use an RFID tag reader that has an output power greater than 6 Watts while in a flammable atmosphere.
