INFLATION USING HIGH PRESSURE COMPRESSED AIR:
OPERATING FSI UNIT - WATER INLET PRESSURE GUIDELINES
FSI Shower systems have all been designed to handle a maximum
incoming water pressure of approx. 55 psi (3.6 Bar). If the water
pressure coming into the FSI shower unit is unknown or will exceed
55 psi – FSI requires the use of a water pressure reducer – available
from FSI.
** INLET WATER PRESSURES in FSI Decon Shower Systems:
Each and every section of spray nozzle heads and multiple function
trigger guns is equipped with a shut off valve and a quick disconnect
feature. If you find the inlet water pressure is not capable of feeding
all water outlets with sufficient water pressure to provide a proper
shower – then shut off all shower heads not currently being used .
This will best ensure maximum water pressure is available where it
is needed.
FSI® DAT® AND DAT® 'QE SERIES'® DECON SHOWERS ARE ANSI 113 COMPLIANT.
With on-scene coordinator oversight, carefully attach hose
to scba/dive air cylinder and lock hose to air berm D ring
using supplied locking clip. Then turn on cylinder air VERY
slowly. Then inflate unit until overpressure valve
operates - indicated by sound of escaping air (escaping air
can also be easily felt by hand. IMMEDIATELY turn off
compressed air supply. The overpressure valve will close
automatically when excess air has escaped from unit.
NOTE! Never cover/block the overpressure valve, as
the unit may become over pressurized and fail.
Make the following final checks:
Check that the unit is upright, that all valves are closed,
and no leaking is occurring. If, in the unlikely event a leak
is discovered, deflate unit and repair before using. (See
instructions for notes on how to repair punctures.)
In the event of/in case of windy conditions, always tie
off unit to the ground using supplied tie down ropes
and stakes, and/or lash to solid objects (e.g., vehicles).
