PACKING PROCEDURE
Feb 20/13
9101
8 - 23
Note:
It is recommended that packing the liferaft be performed by at least two men.
1.
Place the liferaft on a platform or in an open area with enough room to maneuver the liferaft and
container/valise during packing.
2.
Locate the topping-off (inflate/deflate) valves. (Coastal Elites will have 4 while the Offshore Elites
will have 5). Using a vacuum adapter (Part No. 95-41129-101) connected to a vacuum source,
evacuate all air from each compartment in the following order: the floor compartment, the
buoyancy tube(s), the arch-tube, and, if applicable, the boarding ramp. Re-cap the topping-off
valves in each compartment as deflation progresses to prevent ingress of air. (See Fig. 5)
3.
As each chamber is vacuumed, adjust the buoyancy tubes, the arch-tube, etc. so that, with the
minimum number of creases, they lay flat on each other. A clear indication of a completely
vacuumed chamber is that the fabric creases become sharp and well defined. Be sure the canopy
door is open and that the window is zipped shut.
TIP!
The deflated buoyancy tubes for the Offshore Elites should be flattened so the tubes crease
outward. The deflated buoyancy tubes for the Coastal Elites should be flattened so the tubes crease
inward.
Note:
It is ESSENTIAL that the chambers are completely vacuumed since any air left
in them will make it very difficult to properly pack the liferaft and associated
equipment into the container/valise.
4.
Fit the fully charged gas cylinder into the cylinder holder at the rear of the liferaft. Strap down
tightly using the velcro connector straps. Once the cylinder is secure, remove the diffuser caps
and connect the straight outlet to the fixed inlet check. Tighten to a torque of 14-15 lbf. ft. (19-
20Nm). Then connect the 90° outlet to the rotating inlet check at a torque of 14-15 lbf. ft. (19-
20Nm) (See Fig. 6)
(See the previous Section for Charging of Cylinders).
5.
Properly stow all components in the liferaft before folding. (See Fig. 7)
6.
Insert the 120in. tie line through the 2 holes in the survival equipment pack. Secure with a slip
knot at each hole being sure to leave a few inches of slack material between each knot. Tie to
the inner loop on the interior of the raft using a bowline knot. Lay the equipment pack flat on the
floor in the back of the raft.
TIP!
Rotate the hose of the inlet check valve so it is facing the floor. Once folded, it will be in the
proper position to store in the vacuum bag. (See Figure 6)
