HOW TO REPLACE THE HY-3 FLUID CYLINDER FOR A BANDIT 240 DB SECURITY FOGGING UNIT
POINTS TO NOTE BEFORE YOU START:
As long as your Fog Bandit is not ‘set’ (i.e., ‘Guard’ light on the front is not on) the HY-3 Fluid Cylinder
can be replaced without the possibility of a fog ejection.
The action of removing the side compartment cover will create a ‘Tamper’ signal, which may be
detected by your intruder alarm system. If this occurs, simply re-set your intruder alarm system using
your normal method once you have completed the cylinder exchange. If your Bandit is not alarm
connected but stand alone, simply reset the FMU (Fault Module Unit) in the same manner. You will
also hear an internal fan operate for a few seconds when the cover is opened and when subsequently
closed again – this is perfectly normal and occurs due to the ‘Tamper’ notification being detected.
In the following images, the Fog Bandit is shown disconnected from its mounting bracket so as to
provide clear images of the process. You do not have to do anything to your Bandit other than remove
the side panel so as to access the cylinder compartment and follow the instructions provided.
