Quick-Fill Coupling
GB
G1 Integrated SCBA System
(6) Pull on the hose to be sure the connection is secure.
Filling immediately begins when the female fitting fully engages with the Quick-Fill coupling.
After approximately 60 seconds, the pressure between the secondary air supply and the
SCBA cylinder will be equal.
NOTE:
Some cylinders may only be filled with a limited speed. Observe the cylinder manual.
NOTE:
If the secondary air supply does not have a sufficient volume of air, the SCBA cylinder will
not reach full service pressure.
(7) Compare the cylinder pressure gauge and the remote pressure gauge to the secondary air
supply pressure gauge reading.
If the readings are the same, pressure is equal.
(8) To disconnect the Quick-Fill hose after transfilling, pull the gray sleeve back.
The hose fitting and the Quick-Fill coupling will separate.
A hiss or pop may be heard as the fittings separate and the high pressure air is sealed off.
Listen for any leaks from the Quick-Fill coupling.
(9) Immediately install the dust cover on the Quick-Fill coupling.
The SCBA cylinder is ready for service if the cylinder pressure gauge needle is on the appro-
priate color band.
