WARNING

  • THE PRESSURISATION SYSTEM DESCRIBED IN THIS MANUAL HAS THE FOLLOWING AREAS THAT MAY BE DANGEROUS IF NOT TREATED WITH GREAT CARE.
  • QUALIFIED STAFF MUST WEAR THE CORRECT PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT WHEN CLEANING AND SERVICING THIS UNIT DUE TO DUST AND FIBRES WHICH MAY BE CAUGHT BY THE STAGES OF AIR FILTRATION DURING NORMAL UNIT OPERATION.
  • THE ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEM IS SUPPLIED BY 12V DC OR 24V DC AND NO WORK SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT ON THE PRESSURISER SYSTEM WITHOUT THE CORRECT SAFE WORK PROCEDURES AND ELECTRICAL SAFETY MEASURES BEING TAKEN, AND ALL RELEVANT CIRCUIT BREAKER OPENED TO ISOLATE THE CIRCUIT.
  • THE AIR FILTRATION SYSTEM MAY HAVE SEVERAL TYPES OF HIGH-SPEED ROTATING EQUIPMENT INSTALLED WITH VERY SHARP EDGES. ENSURE ALL SAFETY GUARD ARE IN PLACE WHILE THE SYSTEM IS RUNNING.
  • Please be aware that HEPA filters cannot be cleaned and must be replaced at the end of their lifecycle or if filter media has been damaged.

SAFETY

Particulate Behaviour

This is the length of time it takes for a particle to drop from a height of 1.5m in STILL air.

BreathSafe-PV271-RCS4-Pit-Viper-Epiroc-FIG-1 \(3\)

Warehouses and workshops do not have still air, so hazardous airborne particulates may remain in the air for longer, increasing the chance for workers to breathe in dust. Ensure PPE is worn when installing this system.

OPERATOR GUIDE

OPERATORS CHECKLIST

PRE-START
1.| Visually inspect the BreatheSafe system for any damage.
2.| Visually inspect the cabin for any damage to doors, windows, or seals.
3.| Please remove dust & debris from shoes and clothes before entering the cabin.
4.| Ensure door(s) and windows are closed correctly.
5.| Start the engine and turn the HVAC on to speed 2 (medium speed).
6.| After a fixed speed delay, the BreatheSafe display will show 50 Pascals or a pre-set value.
The system is working correctly when the Pascal value is green. > > There is no further action required < <

NORMAL OPERATING CONDITION

  • Cab Air Conditioning
    • BreatheSafe recommends OEM air conditioning fan be set at mid-speed or greater to circulate air around the breathing zone and minimise CO₂.
    • The acceptable operating range for a BreatheSafe fan is 10-80%. >80% recommend maintenance.

ALERTS

Fixed Fan Start Delay

·         Allows the operator to carry out pre-start checks – limiting at 30% fan speed, press the red text to disable.

CO₂ Level Alert (if equipped)

·         Ensure the air conditioning fan is set at mid-speed or greater to circulate air and minimise CO₂.

Low-Pressure   Alarm

BreathSafe-PV271-RCS4-Pit-Viper-Epiroc-FIG-1 \(19\)

  • Do not handle until MSDS & all safety precautions have been read and understood. Use personal protective equipment as required.
  • Before use, carefully read the product label. Safe work practices are advised to avoid eye or skin contact and inhalation.
  • Observe good personal hygiene, including washing hands before eating. Prohibit eating, drinking, and smoking in contaminated areas.
  • Avoid inhalation. Mechanical extraction ventilation is recommended when the removal of atmospheric contaminants is required. Maintain dust/fume levels below the recommended exposure standard. For small amounts, absorb with sand, vermiculite or similar and dispose of at an approved landfill site.

WARNING

For Professional Use Only – keep out of reach of children.
Do not ignite near or around flammable materials.
Use only in well-ventilated areas, outdoors, and/or with proper respiratory protection.
Persons with respiratory sensitivity should avoid exposure to any smoke.
Concentrated smoke may cause severe burns to the skin, eyes, or respiratory system.
Improper use may result in sufficient inhalation of smoke to cause respiratory tract irritation and lung damage.
Harmful if swallowed.

DANGER

Use only as directed. Do not handle until all safety precautions, including Safety Data Sheet, have been read and understood. The product contains hexachloroethane. Wear protective clothing. If exposed or concerned, get medical advice. Store in a cool, dry, secure location. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Dispose of contents/container per location regulations. When used as directed, exposure should be limited and usually poses no hazard because the hexachloroethane is consumed inside the tube as smoke is produced.

Directions: (Smoke Bomb)

1.| Ensure other workers nearby are informed of use. Place on a non- combustible container, away from flammable materials.
2.| Place at Blower intake, or upwind of the target area, or near centre of space.
3.| Orient “Smoke Issues Here” toward air stream, away from surfaces. Place the candle on a flame / heat resistance plate – if not it will melt into the plastic surface.
4.| Ensure smoke will not create any hazard where it is anticipated to go.
5.| Ignite the emitter inside the cabin using site approved device i.e., solder torch or ‘lighter’ and conduct the smoke test.
6.| Do not touch or hold the smoke generator after ignition – the item becomes very hot & remains hot after use.
Smoke Emitter Cabin Pressure Leak Test

1.| The pressuriser system is switched on (TEST MODE).
2.| Hold the smoke emitter angled down.
3.| Ignite emitter using site approved ignitor i.e., solder torch or ‘lighter’.
4.| When the product ignites, remove the lighter.
5.| If the product flames up, blow out the flame.
6.| Place the emitter in a non-flammable container and place it inside the cabin at floor level and close the door/windows.
7.| Observe smoke leaks to indicate worn-out or broken seal locations. Check leakage points outside the cabin.
8.| Do not come into contact with or inhale smoke haze.
9.| Wait until the smoke haze completely disperses before re-entering the cabin. Open door to allow sufficient ventilation of smoke prior to entering cabin.

This SWP does not necessarily cover all possible hazards associated with this equipment and should be used in conjunction with other references. It is designed as a guide to be used to complement training and as a reminder to users before equipment use.

CABIN SEALING TEST PROCEDURE

Cabin Sealing Efficiency Test Procedure

1| Start Engine – Pressuriser System is ON
2| Ensure all windows & door(s) are CLOSED correctly (no cabin pressure leaks)

NOTE: for a new cabin with effective seals, you may need to open a window slightly before closing the door to bleed the static cabin air pressure outwards. Once the door is fully closed then close windows to begin testing.

3| Enter the Settings menu via the touchscreen button.
4| Select and press the System Check button to go to System Test – Max-Fan.
5| Record/photograph the maximum cabin pressure achieved.

Commissioning Procedures

COMMISSIONING PROCEDURES – CABIN PRESSURE

  • Follow each step of the installation guide that was supplied with the BreatheSafe kit.
  • Cabin sealing is an integral part of RS20 & ISO 23875; you must ensure that cabin seals are adequate for maintaining positive pressure.
  • In addition, the site (end-user) must have the correct procedure(s) for servicing OPERATOR enclosure seals in a proactive manner rather than reactive.
  • Items such as door and window seals must be in good working order or new seals FITTED before the BreatheSafe system installation.

Touch-screen cabin pressure display/controller Part# 200027:

  • System Check Function: enter the Settings menu option and select “System Check – Set Max.” The minimum BreatheSafe requirement for cabin sealing efficiency is 250 pascals; if this result is not met, it is essential to re-examine and find pressure leaks of the enclosure and apply new sealing measures.

Submission for commissioning procedure as per the diagram below:

Commissioning – BreatheSafe(breathe-safe.com.au)BreathSafe-PV271-RCS4-Pit-Viper-Epiroc-FIG-1
\(22\)

The commissioning images required are:

  • ID plate / Machine Serial Number / Asset Number or Call Sign
  • INPRESS TL Pressuriser location
  • HEPA Return Air Filter Location Option: Powered Return Air Filter
  • Cabin Pressure Display Location – Including the “System Check” maximum cabin pressure result with motor output capacity %

Fill in the BreatheSafe Service Tag with the following details:

  • Machine Serial Number and Installers details
  • Date installed and System Check result (max cabin pressure)
  • The set cabin pressure with actual pressure and motor percentage output
  • Verify the 250-pascal threshold was achieved = pass OR not achieved = fail**
  • Please upload machine and installation details in conjunction with the required images. A Commissioning Certificate will be sent to the email address you nominate. **Extended warranty for (RS20 & ISO 23875) BreatheSafe Systems is only applicable to operator enclosures meeting this requirement.BreathSafe-PV271-RCS4-Pit-Viper-Epiroc-FIG-1 \(23\)
