WARNING
IF THE LOW BATTERY INDICATION (ONE STEADY
CHIRP EVERY 2 SECONDS WITH NO FLASHING
LIGHTS) OCCURS AT ANY TIME DURING THE
REGULAR OPERATIONAL INSPECTION, DO NOT
USE THE RESPIRATOR. CHANGE THE BATTER-
IES IN THE SENSOR MODULE IMMEDIATELY AND
REPEAT THE REGULAR OPERATIONAL TEST OR
TAKE THE RESPIRATOR OUT OF SERVICE UNTIL
THE BATTERIES ARE CHANGED AND THE REGU-
LAR OPERATIONAL TEST IS SUCCESSFULLY
PERFORMED. FAILURE TO REPLACE THE BAT-
TERIES AND/OR CONTINUING WITH MULTIPLE
USES OF THE RESPIRATOR AFTER THE LOW
BATTERY CONDITION HAS BEEN INDICATED BY
THE PAK-ALERT DISTRESS ALARM MAY RESULT
IN FAILURE OF THE PAK-ALERT DISTRESS ALARM
DURING USE AND POSSIBLE INJURY OR DEATH
OF THE USER.
After completion of all respirator checks and before closing the cylinder
valve:
1. Check the manual reset of the pre-alarm. Leave the respirator motionless
until pre-alarm condition occurs. Within twelve (12) seconds press and
hold the reset button. Three (3) chirps sound. Release the reset button.
The distress alarm resets to the automatic mode and the ashing red light
is replaced by a ashing green light.
2. To check the full alarm, leave the respirator motionless until the pre-alarm
condition occurs. Do not reset.
a) The full alarm sounds a loud, almost continuous, 3-tone chirp
accompanied by ashing of the red signal light on the control console.
b) The PAK-TRACKER Hand Held Receiver sounds an alarm and displays
the identication number of the PAK-ALERT distress alarm, which
appears on the label on the Sensor Module or the Control Console. Use
the SCROLL button on the Hand Held Receiver to highlight the active
ID number and press the ENTER button on the Hand Held Receiver to
select the displayed ID number. Point the unit directly at and in close
proximity to the respirator. The signal strength displayed will be at its
highest value.
3. Reset the manual alarm by pressing the reset button twice: Fully depress
the reset button on the side of the control console, release, and press again.
a) The loud alarm stops. The unit sounds three chirps, and the green light
ashes. The unit resets to the automatic mode.
b) The PAK-TRACKER Hand Held Receiver resets to its non-alarm state.
4. Finish all respirator checks involving air ow and close the cylinder valve.
Use the purge valve to release all residual air pressure in the system.
With the cylinder valve closed (off):
1. Check the continuing operation of the distress alarm. The distress alarm
remains active with the green light ashing. Do not move the respirator;
pre-alarm starts within twenty (20) seconds. Move the respirator slightly;
pre-alarm resets, and the green light starts ashing again.
2. To turn the distress alarm off, press the reset button twice (press, release
and press again). The green ashing light goes out and a fteen (15) second
beep sequence sounds from the sensor module. When this sequence is
complete, the unit sounds a two-tone chirp. The distress alarm is now in
the “OFF” condition.
