OPERATION OF THE SCOTT PAK-ALERT DISTRESS
ALARM
With proper batteries and a charged air cylinder installed, the PAK-ALERT
distress alarm is automatically activated when the respirator is pressurized
by opening the cylinder valve of the respirator.
To indicate activation, the Sensor Module will sound 3 quick audible chirps
and the green light located on the control console will flash every three (3)
seconds. See FIGURE 4. The PAK-ALERT distress alarm is now in the au-
tomatic mode.
In the automatic mode, the SCOTT PAK-ALERT distress alarm constantly
monitors motion of the respirator backframe. The Sensor Module is located
on the respirator backframe beneath the air cylinder and contains the motion
sensor and the audible alarm. If the Sensor Module does not sense motion
of the respirator for twenty (20) seconds, the PAK-ALERT distress alarm will
signal a pre-alarm condition. If there is still no motion of the respirator for the
next twelve (12) seconds the full alarm will sound.
The SCOTT PAK-ALERT distress alarm will remain activated in the au-
tomatic mode until turned OFF according to these instructions.
