Changing Cylinders - AIR SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL MP-2L Manuel D'utilisation

When the cylinder in use has been depleted to approximately 500 PSI (35 bar), the low pressure warning alarm will sound
indicating that the cylinder needs to be replaced.
Step 1)
Open the second cylinder and note the gauge pressure to assure that it is full.
Step 2)
Close the drained cylinder.
Step 3)
Open the bleeder valve (MP-2H, MP-2HCYL, MP-4H, MP-4HCYL) to relieve the pressure. Remove the CGA-346/347
hand tight or wrench tight nut.
Step 4)
Remove the drained cylinder and install a full cylinder in its place. Reinstall the CGA connections. Close bleeder valves.
The cylinder is now ready for use when the other cylinder's pressure descends to 500 PSI.
note: The system is equipped with check valves that will prevent back flow from the other cylinder in use.
Make sure all personnel have egressed the hazardous area and have disconnected from the breathing air system.
