6. Attaching the cylinders
Attach the two tanks to the canister housing tank connections and secure them with the tank
straps.
If you imagin wearing the unit on your back, the oxygen (white valve knob) tank should be
mounted on your right hand side and the diluent (black valve knob) tanks should be mounted
on your left hand side.
Make sure that tanks are lled with the correct gases.
The Poseidon SE7EN+ is equipped with one mounting bracket holding two nylon cylinder
straps with cam buckles on each side. Attachment of the diluent cylinder (black valve handle)
is illustrated in Figures 1-33 and 1-34. After positioning the cylinder with the valve in the correct
orientation, the strap should be pulled through the cam buckle to snug the cylinder so that it
cannot rotate (Figure 1-34). Maintain the tension on the strap while threading it through the end
slot of the cam buckle. Maintain tension while closing the cam, so as not to allow any slack to
pass back through the buckle, then swing the cam buckle closed. The cylinder should be
rigidly mounted to the gas processor housing once both upper and lower straps have been
properly attached and secured.
Then repeat these steps on the oxygen cylinder (white valve handle).
