Honeywell Titan SCBA, 20132
I. INTRODUCTION
1. This manual provides operating instructions as well as
cleaning, maintenance and storage procedures for the
Honeywell Titan™ SCBA, compliant with NFPA 1981, 2013
Edition. You must read and understand all the instruc-
tions and be properly trained before using the Titan
SCBA in a hazardous atmosphere.
II. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The Warnings, Cautions, and Notes contained in this
manual have the following signi cance:
WARNING
Maintenance or operating procedures and
techniques that may result in personal injury,
illness, or death if not carefully followed.
CAUTION
Maintenance or operating procedures and
techniques that may result in damage to
equipment if not carefully followed.
NOTE
Maintenance or operating procedures and
techniques or information considered important
enough to emphasize.
WARNING
• The user is responsible for establishing
that this equipment is suitable for the user’s
application.
• For respiratory protection, this SCBA
must be worn and used as specified
in Honeywell’s instructions. No
protective equipment can provide
complete protection from all conditions. Use
extreme care in all emergency operations.
Do not use the SCBA alone for any
fi refi ghting, hazardous materials, or CBRN
response operations; additional protective
clothing and equipment are required for
protection. Always use in conjunction with
personal protective ensembles that provide
appropriate levels of protection against
dermal hazards. This SCBA may cease to
provide protection if used during excessive
heat or fl ashover conditions harsher than
those in which it has been tested. Users
must clean and maintain this SCBA only in
accordance with Honeywell’s instructions.
Accessories or replacement components not
certifi ed for use with this SCBA may degrade
performance or make this SCBA unsafe, or
void NIOSH certifi cation, and must not be
used without Honeywell’s written consent.
The user must read, understand, and follow
these operation instructions before using
this SCBA in a hazardous environment. Only
Honeywell components shall be used with
this SCBA. Failure to comply will void the
warranty and NIOSH approval.
• Your Honeywell respirator has been
WARNING—Continued
constructed of materials selected after
careful consideration for their performance,
safety, and durability. However, all materials
have exposure limitations to fl ame, extremes
of heat and cold, or to the many chemicals
in use today. No materials exist that can be
used safely in all of these environments.
• This product contains chemicals known to
the State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm.
• Exposure to atmospheres containing CBRN
agents may cause the SCBA to be exposed
to excessive CBRN agent levels. Although
the Titan SCBA will prevent penetration and
permeation of specifi c concentrations of
CBRN agents, there could be environments
that are contaminated with CBRN agent
levels that exceed the NIOSH CBRN test
protocol concentrations. This is a particular
concern in confi ned space environments.
Proper quantifi cation of the CBRN agent-
contaminated environment is recommended
prior to entry.
• Our engineers cannot predict what
will happen to this equipment in every
potential environment. Materials can be
chemically attacked if exposed to the
wrong environment and may exhibit
excessive corrosion or other forms of
damage. Permeation of gases and liquids
through the materials could be excessive.
Flame or extremes of temperature might
cause thermal degradation. Each of these
things, or a combination of them, could
create conditions in which this Honeywell
equipment would be dangerous to use.
• This respirator will reduce, but will not
eliminate, the inhalation of contaminants.
Before allowing anyone to enter a hazardous
environment while wearing Honeywell
equipment, you must conduct safe, scientifi c
tests to determine if the environment could
render the equipment unsafe. Results of this
testing should be well documented. Seek
the help of a certifi ed safety professional
or industrial hygienist. DO NOT USE this
equipment if the user would be endangered
in any way through environmentally
induced degradation of the materials in the
apparatus.
• All persons using this Honeywell breathing
apparatus must be made aware of its
limitations. We cannot be responsible for
any damage to property, personal injury, or
death in which environmental exposure is a
contributing factor.
• This respirator does not protect exposed
areas of the body. Some contaminants can

2
Honeywell Titan SCBA, 20132
WARNING—Continued
be absorbed directly through the skin, while
others may irritate exposed areas. Always
use in conjunction with personal protective
ensembles that provide appropriate levels
of protection against dermal hazards.
• Visual indications of material degradation
may be identifi ed by charring, blistering,
cracking, crazing, pitting, chalking, rust, and
signifi cant color changes, all of which can
result in a weakened structure, prohibiting
extended useful service life.
• Do not wear this respirator if a satisfactory
fi t, as determined by the fi t testing described
in Section VI., cannot be obtained. Also
see ANSI Z88.2 latest edition and OSHA
Respirator Standard (29 CFR 1910.134).
• Beards and sideburns will prevent a good
facepiece seal. Do not use this respirator
unless you are clean shaven.
• This respirator must be used in
conjunction with a written respirator
program meeting the requirements of the
OSHA Standard for Respiratory Protection,
29 CFR 1910.134, available from the U.S.
Department of Labor, Occupational Safety
and Health Administration. The program
must include, but not be limited to,
procedures for evaluating air contaminants
and selecting appropriate respirators;
procedures for testing the facepiece-to-face
fi t of respirators; procedures for cleaning,
disinfecting, inspecting, maintaining,
and storing respirators; procedures for
determining if workers are physically and
medically capable of wearing respirators;
and procedures for training employees in
the use of respirators and in recognizing the
hazards associated with contaminants in the
workplace.
• Do not use this respirator underwater or for
abrasive blasting.
• This SCBA is designed for storage in
temperatures from -25°F to +160° F. If stored
below 0°F, the SCBA must be warmed to
above 0° F before use. Failure to do so may
result in damage to the equipment.
• Honeywell respirators, accessories
and associated equipment should not be
used in atmospheres which may contain
contaminant concentrations above the
lower explosive limit (LEL). Intrinsic safety
certifi cation of electronic components does
not eliminate potential danger of ignition of
these atmospheres.
• The pressure within the Honeywell
facepiece remains positive under most
working conditions, but as with all SCBAs,
negative pressure excursions are possible.
Conditions when an SCBA can experience
WARNING—Continued
negative facepiece pressures include, but
are not limited to: 1) the SCBA is improperly
worn, 2) the SCBA is not used in accordance
with the instructions, 3) the SCBA is
improperly maintained, or 4) the SCBA is
subjected to over-breathing during heavy
work rates. The SCBA will provide reduced
protection when operated in a negative
pressure mode.
• Some sensitive individuals may experience
health problems when exposed to even
minute amounts of contaminants. This
SCBA will not prevent health problems for
those individuals.
• Sensitized persons can have severe
reactions to chemicals at levels well below
accepted health levels such as the OSHA
Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL), ACGIH®
Threshold Limit Value (TLV®), or NIOSH
Recommended Exposure Limits (REL).
Do not use this SCBA if you have been
sensitized from previous exposure or
believe that you may be sensitive or allergic
to any chemicals (e.g., isocyanates, latex, etc.).
• Do not alter or modify this SCBA in any
manner. Modifying this SCBA will void
NIOSH certifi cation and may create a
condition in which the SCBA would not
provide the intended protection. Do not
remove, obscure, or alter any labels on the
SCBA.
• Some individuals are sensitive to chemicals
(e.g., isocyanates, latex, oil mists, etc.) or
may have some type of respiratory disorder
(e.g., asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease, etc.). If you are sensitive to any
chemical or have a respiratory disorder, you
may have a severe reaction at contaminant
levels well below accepted health
levels, such as the OSHA Permissible
Exposure Limit (PEL), ACGIH®Threshold
Limit Value®, or the NIOSH Recommended
Exposure Limit (REL). Many chemicals
(e.g., isocyanates, mercury, etc.) have no
physical warning properties and cannot be
tasted or smelled, even though they may
be present in the facepiece. This SCBA will
reduce, but will not eliminate, the possibility
of contaminants entering the facepiece and
causing a severe reaction. Do not use this
respirator under these conditions.
• Discontinue use if you experience skin
irritation or discoloration.
•
An impact to the second stage regulator when
the cylinder valve is open may inadvertently
activate the First-Breath-On mechanism,
causing air to fl ow from the regulator and
diminishing the air in the cylinder.

3
Honeywell Titan SCBA, 20132
WARNING—CONTINUED
• ONLY grasp the cylinder valve handwheel
to open or close the valve. DO NOT pick up
or carry a cylinder by the handwheel, drop
a cylinder on the handwheel, or bump the
handwheel, as this may cause the cylinder
valve to inadvertently open, which may lead
to the cylinder becoming airborne under the
thrust of air released from the open valve,
causing injury or death. ALWAYS pick up
and carry an air cylinder by the cylinder
body.
• Do not over-torque air cylinder valves.
ALWAYS verify that the hydrostatic test
facility performing your cylinder testing
DOES NOT over-torque the cylinder valves
when they reinstall them.
• Some CBRN agents may not present
immediate effects from exposure, but can
result in delayed impairment, illness, or
death.
• Direct contact with CBRN agents requires
proper handling of the SCBA after each use
and between multiple entries during the
same use.
• Decontamination and disposal procedures
must be followed. If contaminated with
liquid chemical warfare agents, dispose of
the SCBA after decontamination.
• The respirator should not be used
beyond six (6) hours after initial exposure
to chemical warfare agents to avoid the
possibility of agent permeation.
• Prior to using the Titan SCBA for the
fi rst time, you must perform fi t testing as
described in section VI. Do not wear this
respirator if a satisfactory fi t, as determined
by the fi t testing described in section VI,
cannot be obtained.
• You must read, understand, and follow all
warnings, instructions, labels, and Safety
Data Sheets (SDS), etc., for the materials
you are using (e.g., paints, hardeners,
insecticides, varnishes, etc.).
• You must also read, understand, and follow
all warnings, instructions, etc., listed in the
SDS for any contaminants that may be or
are present in the work area.
• FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE
WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY, ILLNESS, OR DEATH.
WARNING
Detectable amounts of chemicals known
to the State of California to cause cancer,
birth defects, or reproductive harm may
be found in this product. (This warning

Honeywell Titan SCBA, 20132
IV. DESCRIPTION
The Titan SCBA provides the wearer with respiratory
protection in hazardous environments, and may be used
for entrance into and escape from atmospheres that are
immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH).The Titan
SCBA is an NFPA- and NIOSH CBRN-compliant SCBA,
and may be used for re ghting and/or CBRN incident
response. It may be used as a supplied air respirator (in
non-CBRN applications only) or self-contained breathing
apparatus.
WARNING
Not all components and accessories
approved for use on the Panther and Warrior
SCBAs are approved for use on the Titan
SCBA. You must check the NIOSH approval
label in this manual for components and
accessories approved for use on the Titan
SCBA. See the Table of Contents. Failure
to comply with this warning may lead to
personal injury, illness, or death.
The Titan SCBA meets all requirements of the NFPA 1981
Standard, 2013 Edition, Open-Circuit Self-Contained
Breathing Apparatus for Emergency Services.
See NFPA 1500, Standard on Fire Department Occupa-
tional Safety and Health Program, for proper use of SCBAs
in the work environment.
The Titan SCBA meets the requirements of the NIOSH
CBRN standard and has been granted NIOSH CBRN ap-
proval. The NIOSH CBRN approval label is located on the
right side of the pressure transducer cover on the back-
pack frame.
A. Backpack and Cylinder
1. The backpack consists of a lightweight aluminum
backplate with an aluminum hip plate that both swivels
and hinges on the backplate. The backpack has an
integrated carrying handle and an attached webbing
strap handle. The cylinder is attached by a stainless
steel band with integrated adjustment mechanism, and
has a release latch on the right side (when looking at
the cylinder with the valve pointing down). The Titan
harness is made of Kevlar straps. The pressure gauge,
mounted on the right shoulder strap, is integrated
with the PASS device on units equipped with a PASS,
and is a standard chest-mounted gauge on units not
equipped with a PASS. The gauge indicates the cylin-
der pressure once the cylinder valve has been opened.
The intermediate pressure hose is routed over the left
shoulder, and includes an optional electrical/pneumatic
quick connector in line, which allows for easy removal
of the second stage regulator. Connection of the
quick-connect automatically connects the electronics
required for the Heads-Up Display (HUD).
2. The air cylinder is of composite construction with
an aluminum inner liner overwrapped by carbon ber,
and has a maximum working pressure of 4500 psig
(high pressure) in 30-, 45-, and 60-minute durations;
or 2216 psig (low pressure) in 30-minute duration. An
all-aluminum cylinder and berglass composite hoop-
wrapped cylinder with a maximum working pressure of
2216 psig (low pressure) in 30-minute duration are also
available.
WARNING
DO NOT pick up or carry a cylinder by
the handwheel. Use the cylinder valve
handwheel ONLY to open or close the valve.
Do not drop a cylinder on the handwheel, or
bump the handwheel. This may cause the
cylinder valve to open inadvertently and the
cylinder to become airborne under the thrust
of air released from the open valve, causing
injury or death. ALWAYS pick up and carry
an air cylinder by the cylinder body. Failure
to comply with this warning may lead to
personal injury, illness, or death.
B. First Stage Pressure Reducer
1. The rst stage pressure reducer contains:
• Pressure reduction components.
• Primary low air alarm activation and adjustment
mechanisms.
• Intermediate pressure connections to the second
stage regulator, audible alarm, and buddy breath-
er (EBSS), if so equipped.
• High pressure connections to the HUD transducer,
remote pressure gauge, the universal air connec-
tion, and the audible alarm.
2. The rst stage pressure reducer lowers cylinder
air pressure to a nominal 115 psig. The relief valve
activates to protect the system when the intermediate
pressure exceeds 200 to 225 psig.
3. The rst stage pressure reducer is connected to a
warbling whistle or a bell alarm. The alarm is located
on the rst stage pressure reducer body, protected by
a metal cover. The low pressure SCBA audible alarm
activates at 731 to 820 psig (2216 psig system); the
high pressure SCBA audible alarm activates at 1485 to
1665 psig (4500 psig systems). The audible alarm will
continue to sound until the air pressure drops below
200 psig.
WARNING
• You must use a CBRN facepiece when
using this SCBA in a potential or known
CBRN contaminated atmosphere. Use of a
facepiece other than a CBRN facepiece will
void NIOSH CBRN certifi cation and NFPA
compliance certifi cation.
• If the low battery alert activates (amber
LEDs on the front and back PASS fl ashing
every ten seconds) during storage, the
batteries must be replaced before using the
SCBA.
• Activation of the visual low air alarm
(fl ashing red LED) in the HUD may or may
not coincide with the audible alarm (whistle,
warbling whistle, or bell) on the SCBA. As
soon as the fi rst alarm activates, PROCEED
IMMEDIATELY TO A SAFE AREA.

7
Honeywell Titan SCBA, 20132
WARNING—Continued
• You must have binocular vision (vision from
both eyes) to see and interpret the display
correctly. Your visual acuity while wearing
the facepiece must meet the requirements
set forth by the authority having jurisdiction
over your operation and/or workplace.
• Failure to comply with this warning may
lead to personal injury, illness, or death.
C. Heads-up Display (HUD)
NOTE
The Titan SCBA comes equipped with a Heads-
Up Display (HUD).
1. The HUD is mounted on the second stage regula-
tor. When the second stage regulator is installed in the
Twenty/20+ facepiece, the display can be seen through
openings in the facepiece nozzle cover. When the
cylinder valve is opened, the HUD activates automati-
cally, and indicates the air pressure remaining in the
cylinder. The display consists of four green LEDs,
representing Full, 3⁄4, 1⁄2, and 1⁄3. At full cylinder pres-
sure, all four LEDs are illuminated. As the air pressure
in the cylinder decreases, the LEDs turn off one at a
time, thereby indicating the air pressure status. When
the pressure drops below 50% of cylinder capacity, the
LED representing 1⁄2 cylinder capacity starts to ash,
and continues to ash for a short time (approximately
20 seconds) before returning to being continuously lit.
When the pressure drops to 1⁄3 (33%) of cylinder ca-
pacity, the last green LED turns red and begins to ash,
giving the user a visual low pressure alarm in addition
to the audible alarm located at the upper left of the
backpack. On a 2216 psig SCBA, the 1/3 LED will turn
red and begin to ash between 731 and 820 psig; on a
4500 psig SCBA, the 1/3 LED will turn red and begin to
ash between 1485 and 1665 psig. When the pressure
drops to 10% of cylinder capacity, the red LED begins
ashing noticeably faster and continues until air pres-
sure drops below approximately 200 psig, at which time
the display will turn off. There are no LEDs represent-
ing zero air pressure.
2. An external red LED, mounted on the front of the
HUD module, warns others of the user’s low air status
by ashing at the same time the 1⁄3 LED is ashing
inside the HUD module. The external red LED ashes
noticeably faster when the pressure drops to 10% of
the cylinder capacity. A red LED at the lower right of the
backpack performs the same functions.
3. The back PASS has an amber LED battery status
indicator. In storage or when the SCBA is activated
manually or by pressure from the cylinder, the amber
LED ashes every ten seconds to indicate a low battery
condition, and will cease ashing altogether to indicate
a dead battery. An audible beep will also sound every
ten seconds to indicate a low battery condition.
WARNING
The following alkaline battery types must be
used in the battery compartment in order to
maintain the intrinsic safety certifi cation of
this product:
• Duracell MN1400
• Duracell PC1400
• Energizer E93
• Energizer EN93
4. To replace the batteries, remove the slotted battery
cap located on the lower right hand side (when look-
ing at the cylinder with the valve pointing down) of the
backpack, using a coin, a large, at blade screwdriver,
or the male end of the waist strap buckle. Remove the
old batteries and install new batteries in the orientation
shown on the molded battery cover. Replace the bat-
tery cap hand tight.
NOTE
Refer to applicable local ordinances for
appropriate disposal of used batteries.
WARNING
• Prior to re-installing the battery cap,
ensure that the cap O-ring is not damaged.
Replace damaged O-rings as required. After
installation, ensure that the cap O-ring is not
exposed or pinched in the seal area. Failure
to comply with this warning may lead to
personal injury, illness, or death.
• If the low battery alert activates (amber LED
on the back PASS fl ashes every 10 seconds,
along with an audible beep) during storage,
the batteries must be replaced before using
the SCBA.
• If the battery alert in the HUD activates
during actual use (amber LED at the lower
right of the display fl ashes once every
second), the SCBA may continue to be used.
The batteries must be replaced before the
next usage.
• Failure to comply with this warning may
lead to personal injury, illness, or death.
D. Chest-mounted Gauge
If the SCBA is not equipped with a PASS device, the
chest-mounted pressure gauge is mounted on the right
shoulder strap and may be swivelled 360° for easy
viewing. When the cylinder valve is opened, the gauge
indicates the air pressure remaining in the cylinder.
E. Second Stage Regulator
WARNING
• An impact to the second stage regulator
when the cylinder valve is open may
inadvertently activate the First-Breath-On
mechanism, causing air to fl ow from the
regulator and diminishing the air in the
cylinder.

8
Honeywell Titan SCBA, 20132
WARNING—Continued
• Turn off the free fl owing regulator by
pressing the shutoff button on the second
stage regulator cover.
• Check the SCBA pressure gauge to
determine if it is necessary to replenish the
SCBA air supply prior to continuing use.
• Failure to comply with this warning may
lead to personal injury, illness, or death.
The pressure demand second stage regulator is
mounted on the facepiece by the Honeywell AIR
KLIC™ system. The mechanism automatically locks in
place when the regulator is pushed into the AIR KLIC,
and is detached when both of the release buttons are
pressed. To prevent inadvertent air ow, the regulator
will not operate until the First-Breath-On mechanism is
activated or the manual override button on the front of
the regulator is pressed. The ow of air can be stopped
by pressing the First-Breath-On shutoff button. The
large red knob on the right side of the regulator controls
an adjustable bypass valve. Turning this knob counter-
clockwise provides a constant ow of air.
F. Facepiece
WARNING
You MUST use a CBRN facepiece (2820XX
series) when using this SCBA in potential or
known CBRN contaminated atmospheres.
Use of a facepiece other than a CBRN
facepiece will void NIOSH CBRN certifi cation
and NFPA compliance certifi cation, and may
lead to personal injury, illness, or death.
The Titan SCBA/SAR must be used with a Twenty/20+
facepiece (2820XX series), which features a special
wide-lip sealing surface and ve-point silicone head-
strap harness or optional Headnet harness. The lens
is treated with an abrasion-resistant coating on the
outside surface of the lens, and a permanent anti-fog
coating on the inside of the lens. The nozzle houses a
removable nose cup, speaking diaphragm, and exhala-
tion valve. The AIR KLIC is threaded into the nozzle
and secured by a ratchet mechanism to prevent leak-
age and provide a secure mount for the second stage
regulator.
G. Rapid Intervention Crew/Company Universal Air
Connection (RIC UAC)
NOTE
The Titan SCBA comes equipped with the
Rapid Intervention Crew/Company Universal
Air Connection (RIC UAC).
1. The RIC UAC and ll hose (purchased separately in
the P/N 968970 or 978906 RIT Kit) provide a means for
equalizing pressure in SCBA cylinders during a rescue.
An attendant/rescue crew member must assist with the
cylinder pressure equalization.
2. The RIC UAC is located adjacent to the CGA hand-
wheel of the Titan SCBA, on the lower left side of the
backpack (when looking at the cylinder with the valve
pointing down). The RIC UAC is accompanied by a
relief valve located on the rst stage pressure reducer.
The relief valve is designed to vent air to atmosphere
when the ll pressure exceeds the cylinder service
pressure, in order to prevent cylinder over-pressur-
ization. The RIC UAC has a dust plug which must be
installed over the coupling at all times before and after
lling operations. The RIC UAC ll hose has the mating
ll coupling. A directional ow control piston is located
in the quick-disconnect coupling to prevent air loss and
hose whipping if the hose is installed incorrectly. The
quick-disconnect coupling is supplied with dust plugs
which must be installed when the ll hose is not in use.
WARNING
• The RIC UAC has a dust plug which must
be installed over the coupling at all times
before and after fi lling operations.
• DO NOT allow oil, grease, or other
contaminants to come in contact with the
quick-disconnect couplings.
• DO NOT use air other than breathing air,
Grade D or better, conforming to CGA
G-7.1 Commodity Specifi cation for Air. The
moisture content, expressed as dewpoint,
shall be maintained at -65°F (-53.9°C) or
lower, or less than 24.0 ppm by volume
moisture content.
• The Honeywell RIC UAC and RIC UAC fi ll
hose must ONLY be used to fi ll compressed
air cylinders. The Honeywell RIC UAC and
RIC UAC fi ll hose must NEVER be used:
1. As a buddy breathing device.
2. For SCBA-to-SCBA fi lling.
3. To provide a continuous air supply.
• Failure to comply with this warning may
lead to personal injury, illness, or death.

Honeywell Titan SCBA, 20132
2. Applicable Facepieces
The Honeywell facepieces approved for use with
CBRN-certi ed SCBA, and accessories approved for
use with those facepieces, are listed in section III,
page 3. A t test must be performed with either:
a. A facepiece equipped exactly like the facepiece
to be worn with the SCBA, or
b. A facepiece equipped with all of the listed ac-
cessories, to simulate worst case.
3. Facepiece Selection
Select a small, medium, or large facepiece. Most
people will achieve a good t with a medium size
facepiece and should try that size rst, but if your face
is small or large, you may want to start with a small or
large size. You will have the opportunity to check the
seal of the facepiece and to wear it for several minutes
to determine its comfort before the Quantitative Fit Test
(QNFT) is started.
To determine if you have selected a size that ts:
a. For facepieces with a headnet, fully loosen the
lower headstraps. For facepieces with headstraps,
fully loosen all ve (5) headstraps. See Figure 1.
b. Pull the headnet or headstraps over the top of the
facepiece so that they are in front of the lens.
c. While holding the facepiece by the nozzle, put
your chin in the chin cup. See Figure 2. Make sure
no clothing or hair comes between your face and the
sealing area of the facepiece. Gently push the face-
piece against your face.
d. Flatten your palm so that you close off the inlet
as shown in Figure 3, and inhale lightly to check the
seal. The vacuum created by inhaling will slightly col-
lapse the facepiece. If a good t is achieved, the face-
Figure 1. Headstraps/Headnet

identifi cation markings on SCBA
components. Engraving may induce
stresses in materials that, over time, could
propagate cracks. Plastic labels, dyno-
labels, and stickers may burn.
VI. OPERATION
WARNING
• To avoid the possibility of agent
contamination, the respirator should not
be used beyond six (6) hours after initial
exposure to chemical warfare agents.
• Prior to using the Titan SCBA for the
fi rst time, you must perform fi t testing as
described below.
• Do not wear this respirator if a satisfactory
fi t, as determined by the fi t testing described
below, cannot be obtained.
• Failure to comply with this warning may
lead to personal injury, illness, or death.
A. Fit Test Instructions for Facepieces
NOTE
To ensure an adequate t, each person who
will wear a CBRN-certi ed SCBA must pass a
quantitative t test with a minimum measured
t factor of 500 while wearing a facepiece of a
size and con guration exactly like the facepiece
that will be worn with the SCBA. To simulate the
weight of the second stage regulator as used
with an SCBA, use the Honeywell APR Adapter,
P/N 962900, equipped with two Honeywell
P/N 105005 P100 lters.
1. Introduction
a. To perform quantitative t testing using a TSI Porta-
Count, use the Honeywell APR Adapter, P/N 962900,
and the Honeywell Quantitative Fit Test Adapter, P/N
962920, to provide a means for drawing a sample
from the interior of the facepiece.
b. To perform quantitative t testing using an OHD
Quanti t®,use the Honeywell Canister Adapter,
P/N 960150, modi ed per OHD instructions and the
OHD 9513-0113 adapter (available from OHD).

piece should remain lightly collapsed until you exhale
or until you take your palm from the opening.
NOTE
Do not hold your breath longer than two or three
seconds, and do not pull a very strong vacuum.
The purpose is to see if the facepiece will seal
against a small amount of air pressure.
e. If a good t was achieved, proceed to step 4. If you
felt a leak, select a different size facepiece and repeat
steps a. through d. above.
f. If you cannot get a t with any size, then install a
Temple Insert Kit, P/N 962150 (small), P/N 962153
(medium), or P/N 962154 (large) into the facepiece
that t the best, and repeat steps a. through e. above.
If you still felt a leak when the facepiece was col-
lapsed toward your face, install a different size Tem-
ple Insert Kit, and repeat steps a. through e. above. If
you still cannot get a t with any of the temple inserts
installed, you cannot proceed.
4. Assembling Adapter, Facepiece, and/or Filters for
Fit Tests
Assemble the appropriate Quantitative Fit Test
Adapter and/or lters to the APR Adapter or
Canister Adapter and facepiece according to the
instructions provided with the Quantitative Fit Test
Adapter Kit.

a. Fully loosen the lower head straps.
b. If the facepiece has a neck strap, place the
neck strap over your head.
c. Place your chin in the chin cup, pull the headnet
over your head and tighten it by pulling evenly on
the upper and lower straps. See Figure 4. Make
sure that your chin is properly recessed in the chin
cup.
d. Center the facepiece and atten the headnet
with a wiping motion toward the back of your
head. See Figure 5.
e. Retighten the straps. The headnet should be
centered on the back of your head and the lower
straps should be below your ears.
f. If the facepiece feels like it is not tight enough,
tighten all the straps a little more. If it feels too
tight, loosen the straps and readjust them.
Facepiece with Silicone Headstrap:
g. Fully loosen all ve (5) headstraps.
h. If the facepiece has a neck strap, place the
neck strap over your head.
i. Grasp the lower headstraps and place your chin
in the chin cup as shown in Figure 6.
j. Pull the headstrap over your head, and tighten
it by pulling evenly on the upper and lower straps.
Make sure that your chin is properly recessed in
the chin cup.
k. Center the facepiece and atten the headstrap
hub on the back of your head.
l. Tighten the two lower straps, the temple straps,
and the top strap until all the headstraps lie at on
your head. Do not overtighten. See Figure 7.

m. If the facepiece feels like it is not tight enough,
tighten all the straps a little more. If it feels too
tight, loosen the straps and readjust them.
n. When properly adjusted, the headstrap hub
should be centered on the back of your head, and
the lower straps should be below your ears.
6. Negative Pressure Fit Check
a. For PortaCount® testing: close off the barbed
tting on the t test adapter and cover the inlet of
the two P100 lters with the palms of your hands,
a thin sheet of rubber or plastic, or a rubber glove.
b. For OHD Quanti t® testing: cover the two inlets
on the OHD adapter.
c. Inhale just enough to slightly collapse the face-
piece toward your face and hold your breath for a
few seconds.
d. A good t is indicated if the facepiece stays
slightly collapsed until you exhale or uncover the
lters; a poor t is indicated if the facepiece does
not stay collapsed or you hear air leaking.
e. If a good t was achieved, proceed to step 7,
Quantitative Fit Test. If a good t was not
achieved, readjust the facepiece and straps, and
repeat steps a through c.
7. Quantitative Fit Test (QNFT)
Honeywell suggests that QNFT be performed with
either a TSI PortaCount or OHD Quanti t accord-
ing to the protocol for quantitative t testing in
Appendix A, Paragraph A and paragraph C.3 of
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134.

WARNING
• Prior to using an SCBA for a potential or
actual CBRN incident response, you MUST
verify that the SCBA is NIOSH CBRN-
approved. Verify that the backpack has a
NIOSH CBRN approval label, and that the
facepiece is a CBRN facepiece as described
below.
• The NIOSH CBRN approval label is located
on the upper back section of the backpack
frame, on the pressure transducer cover. If
you cannot read the NIOSH CBRN approval
label with the cylinder installed on the SCBA,
remove the cylinder from the backpack to
verify the NIOSH CBRN approval label.
• You MUST use a CBRN facepiece (2820XX)
when using this SCBA in a potential or known
CBRN contaminated environment. Using
a facepiece other than a CBRN facepiece
will void NIOSH CBRN certifi cation. The
facepiece part number is located on the
inside surface of the lens below the chin area
of the nose cup. You must verify that you are
using a 2720XX or 2820XX series facepiece
prior to using the facepiece in a potential or
known CBRN contaminated environment.
• For verifi cation of components that are
part of the NIOSH CBRN-certifi ed Titan
SCBA confi guration, the Titan SCBA
approval paper insert label is included with
the operation manual. If the Titan SCBA
approval paper insert label is not present,
contact your local Honeywell representative
or safety offi cer for a replacement paper
insert label.
• Honeywell does not make recommendations
regarding the use of Titan SCBAs during or
after a potential or actual CBRN incident
response, aside from the NIOSH Cautions
and Limitations listed on pages i and 30
of this manual, and the warnings listed in
various locations in this manual. Refer to
your local incident command SOPs for site
guidance and CBRN incident response
procedures.
• Direct contact with CBRN agents requires
proper handling of the SCBA after each use
and between multiple entries during the
same use. Decontamination and disposal
procedures must be followed. If contaminated
with liquid chemical warfare agents, dispose
of the SCBA after decontamination.
• Failure to comply with this warning may
lead to personal injury, illness, or death.

Failure to comply with this warning may lead
to personal injury, illness, or death.
4. Check the latch on the cylinder band and ensure that
the cylinder is secure in the backpack.
5. Lay the harness out and straighten each strap. All ad-
justable straps should be extended to maximum length.
6. There are two methods of donning the SCBA: coat-
style, one arm at a time; and over the head. Choice of
the method of donning is a matter of individual choice
or organizational policy. Both methods are described
below.
a. Over the Head
i. Lean the SCBA cylinder against your legs, cyl-
inder valve resting on the ground and the harness
spread to each side.
ii. Grasp the backpack by the sides of the frame as
shown in Figure 8.
iii. Lift the SCBA over your head, keeping your
elbows close to the centerline of your body to allow
proper placement of the shoulder straps. Allow the
SCBA to slide onto your back. See Figure 9.

C. Donning the Facepiece
10. Tighten the AIR KLIC (the adapter into which the
second stage regulator is inserted) in the facepiece by
turning it clockwise.
11. Verify that the AIR KLIC is secured by trying to turn
it counterclockwise.
WARNING
Ensure that the AIR KLIC is held securely in
the nozzle by the ratchet mechanism. Failure
to comply with this warning may lead to
personal injury, illness, or death.
12. Don the facepiece as follows:
There are two methods, depending upon which head
harness is used, to secure the Twenty/20+ facepiece to
the user. Both methods are described below.
a. Standard silicone headstrap:
i. Fully loosen the headstraps. See Figure 13.
ii. If your SCBA is equipped with a neck strap,
place the neck strap over your head.
iii. Place your chin in the chin cup and pull the
straps over your head.
iv. Center the facepiece and atten the headstrap
hub on the back of your head.
vi. Tighten the two lower straps, the temple straps,
and the top strap, until all the headstraps lie at on
your head. See Figure 14.
Figure 13. Loosen Headstraps/Chin in Chin Cup
vii. Perform a leak check as described in section
VI, E, page 14.
NOTE
When properly adjusted, the headstrap hub
should be centered on the back of your head,
and the lower straps should be below your ears.
Make sure that your chin is properly recessed in
the chin cup.
b. Optional Headnet
WARNING
Ensure that the three locking fabric straps
located across the forehead are fully inserted
into their slots in the rims and that the locking
fl aps prevent the straps from pulling out of
the slots. Failure to verify proper installation
could allow contaminants to leak into the
facepiece, causing illness or death.

be centered on the back of your head, and the
lower straps should be below your ears.
D. Exhalation Valve Test
WARNING
Do not use this SCBA in a contaminated
atmosphere if the exhalation valve is not
working properly. Failure to verify that the
exhalation valve is functioning properly
could result in diffi culty in exhaling from
the facepiece. Failure to comply with this
warning could lead to personal injury or
death.
1. To test the exhalation valve, take a deep breath
and hold it. Cover the AIR KLIC as shown in Figure
18 and exhale.
2. If the exhalation valve is stuck, it will be dif cult to
exhale. If the exhalation valve is stuck, exhale sharply
to open the valve. If the valve still does not open,
clean the valve per the instructions in the repair table
in this manual.
E. Leak Check
WARNING
Do not use this SCBA in a contaminated
atmosphere if you do not obtain a satisfactory
