Absorbent Canister
Load absorbent into the canister and place the canister onto the underpan assembly. Rotate the
handle counter clockwise to the horizontal position to lock the canister.
WARNING: Use extreme care while handling the CO2 absorbent as it is a caustic
irritant.
WARNING: Check if the gasket is properly installed in place while installing the
canister. If the gasket is not properly installed, it may cause breathing
system leaks.
WARNING: Before locking the canister, make sure that the gasket on the bypass
assembly has no residual absorbent particles or powder. Otherwise it
may cause breathing system leaks.
NOTE: Before adding the absorbent, make sure that the canister is fully dry.
NOTE: The absorbent poured in should not surpass the Max mark on the CO
2
absorbent canister.
