INSPECTION OF THE OPTIONAL EMERGENCY FACEPIECE AND
EMERGENCY BREATHING REGULATOR
The RIT-PAK III Portable Air Supply may be equipped with the optional Emergency face-
piece and Emergency breathing regulator.
The facepiece is a special configuration of a SCOTT Model AV-3000 SureSeal facepiece.
The facepiece is not a NIOSH or NFPA approved configuration and is intended ONLY for
emergency use as part of the RIT-PAK III portable air supply. The Emergency facepiece
has no nose cup or voicemitters and it has a special head harness.
Inspect the Emergency facepiece as follows:
1. Inspect the facepiece seal and other rubber components for deformation,
wear, damage, or cracks.
2. Check that all harness anchors are present, firmly attached, and do not ro-
tate.
3. Inspect the lens for cracks, gouges, scratches, or any condition that could
impair the operation of the facepiece or the user's vision.
4. Inspect the facepiece port for damage where the regulator/adapter attaches.
Inspect the two (2) support tabs and the facepiece around the mount for
cracks or other signs of damage.
5. Inspect the lens frame bezel for damage such as cracks or distortion.
6. Check that both lens frame bezel screws are present and installed cor-
rectly.
7. Inspect the head harness for correct installation with all straps oriented cor-
rectly.
8. Inspect the head harness for damage or worn components.
If any other facepiece is used with the RIT-PAK III Portable Air Supply, refer to the REGULAR
OPERATIONAL INSPECTION requirements provided with the facepiece. Any facepiece
used with the RIT-PAK III Portable Air Supply must be complete and in serviceable condi-
tion with no worn, loose, or damaged components. If any damage is found, remove the
facepiece from service and tag for repair by authorized personnel.
