 Convertible Facepiece

2.  Quick  Coupler  Assembly  (applicable  to  side-

mounted tube, front-mounted tube and P100 es-

cape configurations)

A male plug from one of the air line coupler kits 

listed in the Parts List, Section VI, must be assem-

bled to the open end of the breathing tube. This 

operation requires a torque wrench.

WARNING

Do  not  use  pipe  thread  sealing  tape 

on  the  quick  coupler  or  air  line  hose 

threads.  The  tape  could  restrict  air-

flow or tape fragments could enter the 

air system. Failure to comply with this 

warning may lead to personal injury, ill-

ness, or death.

The  steps  and  considerations  required  for  com-

pleting the Quick Coupler assembly are as follow:

1. Breathing Tube

a. Apply  Loctite  No.  567  PST  pipe  sealant 

or equivalent to the ¼ NPT threads of the 

male  quick  coupler  plug.  Ensure  that  no 

sealant enters the quick coupler or air line 

hose.

b. Thread the male plug into the female fit

-

ting on the breathing tube. Torque to 150 

±5 in-lb.

WARNING

● The full facepiece is NIOSH approved 

only  when  supplied  with  respirable 

breathing  air  through  no  more  than 

three (3) lengths of 9308 Series hose, 

or two (2) lengths of 9852 Series air 

line  hose  at  the  pressures  listed  in 

Tables I and II, located in Section VIII, 

Part B.8. Do not mix hose types from 

different columns.

● The  third  pressure  column  in  Table 

I  should  be  used  when  using  a  low 

pressure ambient air pump. No more 

than  two  (2)  lengths  of  9852  Series 

air  line  hose  may  be  used.  The  air 

supply  must  be  coupled  to  the  air 

source  and  the  breathing  tube  with 

the OBAC couplers and plugs.

● FAILURE  TO  COMPLY  WITH  THIS 

WARNING MAY LEAD TO PERSONAL 

INJURY, ILLNESS, OR DEATH.

CAUTION

Do  not  exceed  the  maximum  continuous 

duty or maximum intermittent duty operat-

ing pressure of the low pressure ambient air 

pump. Refer to your pump user manual.

NOTE

The Vortex air cooler is not approved for use 

with the low pressure ambient air pump.

2. Air Supply Hose

Each length of hose is equipped with a ¼ inch 

female NPT swivel nut at each end and a male 

to male ¼ inch NPT adapter. The male to male 

adapter may be used to connect two lengths of 

hose or connect the hose to the air supply. Four 

approved  methods  of  connecting  hose  lengths 

and air supply are illustrated in Figure 10.

Figure 10. Methods of Hose Connection

3. When assembling the quick disconnect fittings 

of the coupler or the male to male adapters to 

the  hose,  verify  that  the  hose  gaskets  are  in 

place and torque to 90 ±5 in-lb. Thread sealant 

is not required.

4. The air supply connection using the ¼ inch male 

to male adapter illustrated in Method 2 is also 

approved for use with Methods 3 and 4.

 Method 1 is preferred when only one length 

of hose is required since it allows the hose to 

be disconnected from the air supply.

 Method 3 is preferred when multiple lengths 

of  hose  (maximum  of  three)  are  required, 

eliminating the cost of quick disconnect cou-

plers at the hose junctions.

5.  Pressurize  and  check  for  leaks  with  a  bubble 

type leak detector. If leaks are detected:

 Disassemble and repeat steps 3 through 5.

● If the leaks persist, remove the hose from ser

-

vice and have repairs made by a SPERIAN 

certified technician.

 Disassemble and repeat steps 3 through 5.

 If the leaks persist, remove the hose from ser-

vice and have repairs made by a SPERIAN 

certified technician.
