worn parts immediately with RPB
®
genuine parts. The Inner Gasket can be cleaned with warm
water and a mild detergent, rinsed and air dried.
Breathing Tube Assembly
Inspect the Breathing Tube NV2021B for splits or excessive wear. Check that the fittings are
secured into the tube and are not allowing any air to escape. Replace the tube as soon as
signs of damage or excessive wear become evident. Do not remove the foam that is inside the
Breathing Tube as it reduces the noise level of the incoming air. The outside Breathing Tube can
be cleaned and disinfected with warm water and mild detergent, rinsed and air dried. Do not run
water through the Breathing Tube.
Breathing Air Line
The air supply hose should be inspected for cuts, cracks, blisters and signs of abrasion. Make
sure the fittings are firmly crimped to the hose and air cannot escape. Make sure the hose has
not been crushed or kinked. Replace the hose immediately if there are any signs of damage.
Do not run water through the inside of the hose. Clean the Quick Disconnect Couplings with an
air blow down gun to remove any media or dirt that may jam the coupler.
