WARNING —Continued
• Turn off the free fl owing regulator by
pressing the shutoff button on the second
stage regulator cover.
• Check the SCBA pressure gauge to
determine if it is necessary to replenish the
SCBA air supply prior to continuing use.
• Failure to comply with this warning may
lead to personal injury, illness, or death.
The pressure demand second stage regulator is
mounted on the facepiece by the Honeywell AIR
KLIC™ system. The mechanism automatically locks in
place when the regulator is pushed into the AIR KLIC,
and is detached when both of the release buttons are
pressed. To prevent inadvertent air fl ow, the regulator
will not operate until the First-Breath-On mechanism is
activated or the manual override button on the front of
the regulator is pressed. The fl ow of air can be stopped
by pressing the First-Breath-On shutoff button. The
large red knob on the right side of the regulator controls
an adjustable bypass valve. Turning this knob counter-
clockwise provides a constant fl ow of air.

WARNING
You MUST use a CBRN facepiece (2820XX
series) when using this SCBA in potential or
known CBRN contaminated atmospheres.
Use of a facepiece other than a CBRN
facepiece will void NIOSH CBRN certifi cation
and NFPA compliance certifi cation, and may
lead to personal injury, illness, or death.
The Titan SCBA/SAR must be used with a Twenty/20+
facepiece (2820XX series), which features a special
wide-lip sealing surface and fi ve-point silicone head-
strap harness or optional Headnet harness. The lens
is treated with an abrasion-resistant coating on the
outside surface of the lens, and a permanent anti-fog
coating on the inside of the lens. The nozzle houses a
removable nose cup, speaking diaphragm, and exhala-
tion valve. The AIR KLIC is threaded into the nozzle
and secured by a ratchet mechanism to prevent leak-
age and provide a secure mount for the second stage
regulator.
G. Rapid Intervention Crew/Company Universal Air
Connection (RIC UAC)
NOTE
The Titan SCBA comes equipped with the
Rapid Intervention Crew/Company Universal
Air Connection (RIC UAC).
1. The RIC UAC and fi ll hose (purchased separately in
the P/N 968970 or 978906 RIT Kit) provide a means for
equalizing pressure in SCBA cylinders during a rescue.
An attendant/rescue crew member must assist with the
cylinder pressure equalization.

2. The RIC UAC is located adjacent to the CGA hand-
wheel of the Titan SCBA, on the lower left side of the
backpack (when looking at the cylinder with the valve
pointing down). The RIC UAC is accompanied by a
relief valve located on the fi rst stage pressure reducer.
The relief valve is designed to vent air to atmosphere
when the fi ll pressure exceeds the cylinder service
pressure, in order to prevent cylinder over-pressur-
ization. The RIC UAC has a dust plug which must be
installed over the coupling at all times before and after
fi lling operations. The RIC UAC fi ll hose has the mating
fi ll coupling. A directional fl ow control piston is located
in the quick-disconnect coupling to prevent air loss and
hose whipping if the hose is installed incorrectly. The
quick-disconnect coupling is supplied with dust plugs
which must be installed when the fi ll hose is not in use.
WARNING
• The RIC UAC has a dust plug which must
be installed over the coupling at all times
before and after fi lling operations.
• DO NOT allow oil, grease, or other
contaminants to come in contact with the
quick-disconnect couplings.
• DO NOT use air other than breathing air,
Grade D or better, conforming to CGA
G-7.1 Commodity Specifi cation for Air. The
moisture content, expressed as dewpoint,
shall be maintained at -65°F (-53.9°C) or
lower, or less than 24.0 ppm by volume
moisture content.
• The Honeywell RIC UAC and RIC UAC fi ll
hose must ONLY be used to fi ll compressed
air cylinders. The Honeywell RIC UAC and
RIC UAC fi ll hose must NEVER be used:
1. As a buddy breathing device.
2. For SCBA-to-SCBA fi lling.
3. To provide a continuous air supply.
• Failure to comply with this warning may
lead to personal injury, illness, or death.
