will operate or work around the equipment be familiar with conned space ventilation procedures. This manual will take
you step-by-step through the workings and capabilities of the #1325D Axial Ventilator and alert you to all good safety
and operating practices while using the system.
Remember, you are the key to safety. Good safety practices not only protect you but also the people around you. Make
these practices a working part of your safety program. Be certain that everyone operating in or around a conned space
is familiar with the procedures recommended and follows safety precautions. Remember, most accidents can be pre-
vented. Do not risk injury or death by ignoring good safety practices.

Prior to Operation, the #1325D Axial Ventilator should be congured and prepared according to the following guide-
lines.
1. Pre-Operation Inspection:
It is necessary to perform a visual inspection, each time, prior to using the product. If deciencies are found, remove the
product from service and contact the T.A. Pelsue regarding repair. The following checklist coupled with Figure #5.2a
should be used as a guide to determine whether the equipment is in good operating condition prior to usage. Equipment
that is not in good condition can endanger the safety of the entrant and attendant during use.
The Pre-Operation Visual Inspection is not limited to, but must include the following items;
a. Check the Ventilator inlet and outlet guard screens for obstructions.
b. Remove any objects around the immediate area that could be sucked into the Ventilator.
c. The cordset is properly attached to the Ventilator.
d. The rubber feet are attached.

#109998-001 - Product Manual - #1325D Axial Ventialtor - Revision 07 - Date: 07-13-2016
2. Setup of 1325D Axial Ventilator:
Choose a location where installation will provide suitable proximity to the work area yet minimize obstructions during use
and in the event a rescue is necessary. Once a location is chosen;
Ventilator should be placed 1.5 meters upwind where possible, from the conned space, and have its inlet pointed a.
into the wind. This will reduce the chance of contamination being blown into the conned space.
(Refer to Fig. #5.2b)
Plug the Ventilator power cord to a properly grounded receptacle.b.
Extend and place the Ventilator hose as required.c.
When Ventilator operation is no longer required, unplug the power cord. Coil and store the power cord in thed.
space between the housing and base or in the outlet port of the Ventilator.
Important Notes:
During conned space entry operations, it should not be assumed that the ventilator will maintain the air inside -
the conned space at a safe condition. When the ventilator is in use, the air inside the conned space should be
monitored continuously for the presence of poisonous gases and/or toxic fumes.
Ensure that the Ventilator provides positive airow the entire time during usage. The axial Ventilator can be used -
with an accessory Pelsue Air Flow Alarm (FLO-CHEK) in order to alert the entrants that positive ventilation is lost.
