WARNING!!!

21999-0980 / 21999-0980-CA

Congratulations on the purchase of your Tsunami Breathing Air

System! By adhering to the specifications and maintenance schedule

listed in the manual, your air system will provide years of service with

minimal maintenance.

Incoming air enters the 1st stage water separator where water and

particulates are removed down to 10 micron. The air then travels

through the 2nd stage oil coalescing filter where oil aerosols are

filtered down to .001 ppm and particulates are trapped down to .01

micron. Then it passes through an activated carbon filter to remove

oil vapors down to .003 ppm and progresses downstream to your

NIOSH approved supplied air breathing apparatus.

A small amount of this filtered breathing air is sampled through the

carbon monoxide monitor to accurately measure carbon monoxide

levels contained in you air stream and will emit an audible alarm

should the levels exceed OSHA or CSA permissible limits.

United States: 10ppm

Canada: 5ppm

All water separators and oil coalescing filters come standard with

automatic float drains to assure proper discharge of all contaminants

captured in the water separator and oil coalescing filter. The activated

carbon filter should not see any liquid contaminants so therefore

requires no drain. You can add your own manual drain to the bottom

of the activated carbon filter if you so choose.

WARNING

Your safety is important. System pressure must be released prior to any

installation or service. Failure to follow instructions could result in operating

failure or product damage. Always install filtration with the arrows indicating the

direction of airflow. Use only appropriate thread sealant on all connection

fittings unless otherwise specified. Do not alter the filtration from its original

design as this may cause failure in its operation parameters.

CALIBRATION OF CARBON MONOXIDE MONITOR C

1. Follow calibration procedure laid out in the GFG RAM 744 manual

Note: GFG manual can be accessed using the QR code below

1. Read supplied GFG Carbon Monoxide Monitor manual.

2. Send in warranty registration for CO monitor as directed in manual

3. Mount panel to wall using appropriate hardware to properly secure a

weight of 25 pounds

4. Mount the filters in an upright position; allow a minimum clearance of

10” below the filters to allow for the removal of the housing during

required service of the water separator, oil coalescing filter, and

activated carbon filter.

5. When plumbing your filters into your air system, it is recommended to

install an isolation ball valve (not supplied).

6. Once mounted, route drain tubing from the first two filters to an

appropriate water/oil condensate collection tank or other location.

Note: Multi-User systems come with supplied barbed fittings and clear

drain tubing; single-user systems do not. For single-user systems, you

can purchase 5/16” I.D. clear vinyl tubing and gently secure to float

drain tip with a band clamp. Caution: band clamps do not guarantee

your tubing is effectively and properly secured.

7. Wire in the wall pack adaptor to the CO Monitor. (a skilled electrician

should be used with any electrical procedure)

BREATHING AIR SYSTEM INSTALLATION cont. C

8. Set respirator to respective manufacture’s specifications.

Note: Inlet and Outlet Air locations specified above. Outlet air is for

breathing equipment only.

9. Verify monitor is on when in use and system has air pressure present;

Alarm will sound if no pressure is present.
