Page 3: Introduction
AMA200 Rev150720 INTRODUCTION Overview The Breathing Air Monitoring System is designed for use on aerial devices. It has 11 LEDs that indicate the percentage of air in the bottle. When the air in the bottle drops below the low air setting, the LEDs flash. A 5-digit LED display shows the actual bottle pressure. -

AMA200 Rev150720 INSTALLATION Install Display Module Display modules are interchangeable. Programming may have to be set for primary/ remote operations. 1. Measure and mark mounting location for display module panel cutout and mounting screw holes. Make sure there is clearance behind the panel for the display and cables before cutting holes. -
Page 7: Install Pressure Sensor
AMA200 Rev150720 Install Pressure Sensor The pressure sensor is mounted on the manifold of the air tank. T-fittings can be used to mount the pressure sensor. 1. Screw the sensor into a 1/4-18 NPT hole. Caution: Do not use the main body that houses the electronics to tighten the pressure sensor. -
Page 8: Install Buzzer
Install the buzzer close to the display module so the audible warning is easily associated with the visual warning on the display. The optional buzzer provided by FRC requires a cutout hole of 1-1/8" (1.125"). Pin 6 on the 8-pin connector at the rear of the control module is provided to connect the optional buzzer. -
Page 9: Operation
AMA200 Rev150720 OPERATION On power-up the Breathing Air system is in the normal operating mode. Information from the pressure sensor or from the datalink interface is processed and displayed. Operator input is necessary only when accessing program information. The digital display indicates bottle pressure above 500 PSI in increments of 10. (If the display module is programmed for the units of measure to be Bar, it shows one digit to the right of the decimal point.) The bar graph display shows the percentage of air in the bottle in ten percent... -
