Fixed Head and Tripod Mode Operation (Tripod
-
Mounted APA)
4.7.1
The Fixed Head and Tripod Mode (Figure 25) allow the operator to treat an enclosed area using
the APA, when it is mounted on a tripod, as a remote aerosol head. This mode works best when
HVAC and ventilation have been isolated.
4.7.2
Plug APA into quick connect SmartPort located on the RDS 3110 unit.
4.7.3
Next, flip the red arming switch that is located to the right of the computer controller from the
OFF position (Figure 10) to the ON position (Figure 11). This engages the unit into normal
operation mode.
NOTE:
The error code “PLUG IN TRIPOD CONNECTOR” (Figure 24, left) will appear on
the screen upon engaging the red arming switch. This error code will clear once the APA is
mounted onto the tripod.
4.7.4
Mount APA onto tripod.
4.7.5
Position unit and/or the tripod in the enclosed area.
NOTE
: When decontaminating a small space, there may not be enough room for both the RDS
3110 unit and the tripod. If the RDS 3110 unit is in another area, ensure that the APA hose is
not kinked or pinched when placing it in the treatment area.
4.7.6
Be sure not to direct the flow of the solution coming from the remote head spray nozzle,
directly onto any surface. The goal should be for the fog to circulate from the center of the
treatment area
