Water Where the apparatus
Airline is used and stored at a

the

least 5°C below likely
lowest temperature.
Where the conditions
of usage and storage
of any compressed air
supply is not known
the
dewpoint shall not
exceed -11°C.

Note – Also ensure that the test point volume and pressure is sufficient for the RPD being used. For
AS-NZS 1715 the minimum requirement is 170 l/min continuous flow for each person, measured at
the respirator.
