Q

facepiece cleaning

A

use Ecolab neutral disinfectant cleaner

let solution remain on facepiece and nose cup for a minimum of 10 minutes

42
Q

back frame and harness cleaning

A

use soapy water

43
Q

when cleaning regulator

A

To clean the regulator, ensure SCBA cylinder is attached and open to pressurize the system, immerse the regulator in the Ecolab® Neutral Disinfectant Cleaner (wash bucket) and agitate it. Rinse the regulator by agitating it in a sink of clean, warm water.

Shake the regulator to remove excess water. With air turned on, open the bypass until all mist has disappeared. Dry with lint free cloth (Wypall X60) and replace the rubber cover.
