AUDI-LARM ALARM WITH URC ASSEMBLYFILLING INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE URCASSEMBLYA secondary air supply stores compressed breathing airuntil needed to refill air mask air cylinders. When transfilling,the secondary air supply pressure must be greaterthan air mask cylinder pressure. Examples of air suppliesinclude: cascade air cylinder refilling systems; high pressurecompressor systems with a fixed reservoir; or aportable air system such as the RescueAire System.DO NOT connect a high pressure air mask to a secondaryair supply with a pressure greater than 4500psi. The high pressure air mask is rated for a maximumworking pressure of 4500 psi. Failure to followthe above warnings can result in serious personalinjury or death.Note: Rapid Intervention Crews should use a separate airsupply such as <strong>MSA</strong>’s RescueAire portable air supply systemto fill the air mask in an IDLH atmosphere.1. Connect the quick-fill hose to the secondary air supply.a. Turn the air supply on.If serious leakage is noticed from either of the twofemale fittings, or anywhere along the hose, disconnectthe female fittings and return to fresh air immediately.Failure to follow this warning can result in seriouspersonal injury or death.Note: If the secondary air supply does not have a sufficientvolume of air, the air mask cylinder will not reach fullservice pressure.3. Compare the cylinder pressure gauge or the FireHawk<strong>M7</strong> Control Module reading to the secondary air supplypressure gauge reading. If the readings are thesame, pressure is equal.4. To disconnect the quick-fill hose after transfilling, pullthe gray sleeve back. The hose fitting and the URCAssembly will separate. A hiss or pop may be heardas the fittings separate and the high pressure air issealed off.5. Immediately install the dust cover on the URCAssembly.6. The air mask cylinder is ready for service if the cylinderpressure gauge needle is on the appropriate colorband.TRANSFILLING BETWEEN AIR MASKSIf there are leaks from either female fitting, or alongthe hose, depressurize the hose and correct the problem.Such leakage can result in increased fill time.2. Attach the quick-fill hose to the URC Assembly.a. Remove the rubber dust cap from the male inlet fittingon the URC Assembly. Be sure that the cylindervalve is fully opened.b. Remove the rubber dust cap from the female fittingon the quick-fill hose.c. Push the female fitting of the hose onto the male fittingof the URC Assembly until it snaps in place.Pull on the hose to be sure the connection issecure. Filling immediately begins when the femalefitting fully engages with the URC Assembly.d. After approximately 45-60 seconds, the pressurebetween the secondary air supply and the air maskcylinder will be equal.Note: The air mask with the higher pressure reading is thedonor. The air mask with the lower pressure is the receiver.Transfilling between users of air mask should be performedonly during life-threatening emergencies or simulatedtraining exercises. Both donor and receiver mustreturn to fresh air immediately following the procedure.DO NOT transfill if the donor's audible alarm is ringingor FireHawk <strong>M7</strong> HUD /FireHawk <strong>M7</strong> Control Moduleare flashing. Failure to follow this warning can result inshorter escape time to return to fresh air, causing seriouspersonal injury or death.TAL 806 (L) Rev. 3 - 1008285826
