2 Safe Air Compressor Operation
6
F If using extension or replacement hoses other than genuine ARB hoses,
use only sound strong hose with secure couplings and connections having
a high temperature rating and a maximum pressure rating of over 1380 kPa
[200 PSI].
F Air hoses should be securely held to prevent whipping.
F Compressed air contains contaminants which makes it unsuitable for use in
air-supplied respiratory protective devices such as spray painting masks.
Only use compressed air with such devices when appropriately filtered
through approved filtration equipment.
2.1.3 Pressure Vessel Safety
F The ARB CKMTP12 contains two mechanical pressure relief valves that will
bleed of pressure the system above 1100kPa [160PSI].
F The air tank contains compressed air and could result in an explosion if
punctured. Avoid impacting the air tank with anything that could cause a
puncture.
F If the air tank is damaged in any way it should be replaced immediately.
2.1.4 High Temperature Safety
F The compressor, hoses and fittings may become hot after an extended
period of use. Caution must be exercised to avoid handling the hot
surfaces.
