IntroductionThis manual provides factory prescribed procedures for the correct service and repair of this Aqua Lung product. It is not intended to be used as an instructional manual for untrained personnel. The procedures outlined in this manual are to be performed only by personnel who have received Factory Authorized training through an Aqua Lung Service & Repair Seminar. If you do not completely understand all of the procedures outlined in this manual, contact Aqua Lung to speak directly with a Technical Advisor before proceeding any further.

Scheduled ServiceThis product should be given the same care and maintenance as life support equipment. It is therefore important to perform scheduled overhaul service for the complete unit, according to the procedures outlined in this manual on a regularly scheduled basis; once every two years with normal use.

General Guidelines1. In order to correctly perform the procedures outlined in this manual, it is important to follow each step exactly in the order given. Read over the entire manual to become familiar with all procedures before attempting to disassemble the product in this manual and to learn which specialty tools and replacement parts will be required. Keep the manual open beside you for reference while performing each procedure. Do not rely on memory.

2. All service and repair should be carried out in a work area specifically set up and equipped for the task. Adequate lighting, cleanliness and easy access to all required tools are essential for an efficient repair facility.

3. As each unit is disassembled, reusable components should be segregated and not allowed to intermix with non-reusable parts or parts from other units. Delicate parts, including inlet fittings and crowns which contain critical seating surfaces, must be protected and isolated from other parts to prevent damage during the cleaning procedure.

4. Use only genuine Aqua Lung ® parts provided in the overhaul parts kit for this product. DO NOT attempt to substitute an Aqua Lung ® part with another manufacturer’s, regardless of any similarity in shape or size.

5. Do not attempt to reuse mandatory replacement parts under any circumstances, regardless of the amount of use the product has received since it was manufactured or last serviced.

6. When reassembling, it is important to follow every torque specification prescribed in this manual, using a calibrated torque wrench. Most parts are made of aluminum, marine brass or plastic and can be permanently damaged by excessive stress.

Pinch MethodPress upwards on sides of o-ring to create a protrusion. Grab o-ring or insert o-ring tool at protrusion.

General ConventionsUnless otherwise instructed, the following terminology and techniques are assumed:

1. When instructed to remove, unscrew or loosen a threaded part, turn the part counter-clockwise.When instructed to install, screw or tighten a threaded part, turn the part clockwise.2. When instructed to "OPEN" the handwheel, turn the handwheel counter-clockwise. The red indicator ring will not be visible in the handwheel window, this indicates the unit is in the "ON" position. When instructed to "CLOSE" the handwheel, turn the handwheel clockwise. The red indicator ring will be visible in the handwheel window, this indicates the unit is in the "OFF" position.

3. When instructed to depressurize the system, depress the purge button for 5 seconds and release for 5 seconds. Repeat this procedure until the system is depressurized.

4. When instructed to fill or refill the cylinder, 3000 PSI (206 BAR) will be the standard fill pressure used for testing purposes in this manual. Upon completion of all testing, fill the cylinder to its full capacity as marked. (Reference the Filling Procedures section of the User's Manual).

5. The following acronyms are used throughout the manual: LP is Low Pressure; MP is Medium Pressure; and HP is High Pressure.

6. Numbers in parentheses reference the key numbers on the exploded parts schematics. For example, in the statement, “... remove the o-ring (7) from the crown (8) “...the number 7 is the key number to the crown o-ring.

7. When instructed to remove an o-ring, use the pinch method (see illustration below) or use a brass or plastic o-ring removal tool. Avoid using hardened steel picks (unless directed), as they may damage the o-ring sealing surface. All o-rings that are removed are discarded and replaced with brand new o-rings.

Attach a 3/16" hex bit socket (to a inch pound torque wrench and torque the swivel port plug to a value of 60 in lb (6.8 Nm).

LP Module Final Assembly

• When a stable MP has been achieved, note the pressure indicated on the test gauge. Cycle the bleed valve several times and closely monitor the test gauge for several minutes, making sure the MP has remained stable.

• If the MP rises more than 5 PSI (0.35 BAR) in 5-15 seconds after cycling the bleed valve, this indicates a HP leak. Refer to Table 1 : Troubleshooting Guide section of this manual to determine its possible cause.

1. Install o-rings (40) into the grooves on the swivel port plug (41). Install o-ring (39) on the threaded end of the swivel port plug.

3. Install o-ring (21) into the second stage swivel end of the MP hose (38).

NOTE: O-ring (21) for the second stage swivel end of the MP hose (38) is in the second stage overhaul kit (PN 103556).

7. Close the handwheel (26) and open the bleed valve to depressurize the system. Remove the test gauge and MP hose from the LP module body (8).

5. Screw the test gauge onto the 6" yellow MP hose until hand-tight. Open the bleed valve on the test gauge and slowly open the handwheel (26). While watching the test gauge, slowly close the bleed valve.

• Note the preliminary MP indicated on the test gauge. Cycle the bleed valve and monitor the test gauge, making sure the MP has remained stable.

• If the MP exceeds 155 PSI (10.7 BAR) or "creeps", quickly open the bleed valve and close the handwheel. This indicates a HP leak in the system. Refer to Table 1 : Troubleshooting Guide section of this manual to determine its possible cause.

3. Attach the SCUBA fill adapter to the fill port (32) and slowly fill the SEA to 3000 PSI (206 BAR). Do not exceed a fill rate of 500 PSI (34.5 BAR) per minute. Secure the end of the 6" yellow MP hose when filling the cylinder.

4. During the fill process, check for any air leaking from the open end of the hose. If a air leak is detected, immediately stop the filling process and refer to Table 1 : Troubleshooting Guide section of this manual to determine its possible cause. If no leak is detected, finish filling the cylinder and remove the SCUBA fill adapter from the fill port (32).

1. Cycle the handwheel (26) several times to ensure the proper function of the indicator ring (24) and seat & disc retainer (16). Close the handwheel when finished.

2. Install the 6" yellow MP hose into the swivel port of the LP module body (8).

First Stage Adjustment

NOTE: Because the SEA second stage has a ratchet quick release mechanism on the hose (38), a 6" yellow MP hose (PN 103638) must be used to adjust the medium pressure.

NOTE: The initial first stage testing is done without anything attached to the end of the 6" yellow MP hose. The handwheel should initially be left in the "OFF" position when filling the cylinder to check for any air leaks coming from the open end of the hose.

4. Since there is nothing attached to the end of the MP hose (38) and the cylinder (42 or 43) is fully charged, set the system in a secure place so that the valve cannot be accidentally opened.

6. Insert a 10mm hex bit socket and flex wrench into the spring adjuster (2). Slowly turn the 10mm hex bit socket in ⅛ increments (clockwise to increase or counter-clockwise to decrease) to adjust the MP. Cycle the bleed valve and monitor the test gauge after each adjustment. Set the MP to 145 (±10) PSI / 10 (± 0.7) BAR.

NOTE: Correct MP for the SEA is 145 ±10 PSI (10 ± 0.7 BAR), with an inlet pressure of 3000 PSI (206 BAR).


Second Stage Reassembly

2. Use your fingers to screw the exhaust cover (64) onto the box bottom (59) until hand-tight.

3. Install o-ring (51) onto the spring carrier (50). Insert the spring carrier into one end of the spring (52) and the shuttle valve (53) into the other. Carefully guide the end of the spring carrier into the bore of the shuttle valve as not to cause damage.

WARNING: Flooding of the second stage may occur if the exhaust valve (63) is folded under or the barb on the stem is not pulled through the hole in the exhaust port all the way.

4. Position the spindle body (49) with the threaded end to the left and small center hole on top. Use your finger to press in on the shuttle valve (53) and fully compress the spring (52)far enough to pass the triangular shaped hole in the spindle body. There should be a visible gap through the triangular hole in the spindle body. Insert the feet of the lever (48) one leg at a time into the gap in front of the shuttle valve.

NOTE: Look into the open end of the spindle body (49) to ensure the arms of the lever (48) are positioned in front of the shuttle valve (53). This retains the shuttle valve inside the spindle body. Check that the lever has a full range of movement and does not catch on the spindle body.

CAUTION: Ensure the legs of the lever are parallel to each other and not bent. If necessary, gently squeeze the legs together to straighten.

Correct Incorrect

1. Install the exhaust valve (63) into the box bottom (59) by inserting the stem through the center hole of the exhaust port. Pull the stem through until the barb is on the opposite side of the hole in the exhaust port. Examine the flap of the exhaust valve to make sure it is laying flat and is not distorted or folded under. Use a pair of small diagonal pliers to trim the stem so it is only about 1/4" long. Visible

GapCenter Hole

(on Top)

5. Carefully insert the MP seat (54) into the end of the shuttle valve (53). Ensure the MP seat is flush with the shuttle valve.

CAUTION: Use only the end of your finger to insert the new MP seat (54), NOT your fingernail. Ensure the MP seat sits flush with the shuttle valve (53). DO NOT mark the face of the MP seat, this will cause the second stage to leak when fully assembled.

17

6. Install o-ring (57) on the valve seat (56). Install the valve seat into the smaller diameter bore of the inlet fitting (55). Using a 5mm hex bit socket and flex wrench turn the valve seat counter-clockwise so that it retracts into the inlet fitting until it stops.

7. Install o-ring (19) into the groove on the smaller diameter bore of the inlet fitting (55).

8. Insert the threaded end of the spindle body (49) into the inlet fitting hole of the box bottom (59). Ensure the small center hole in the spindle body is facing the diaphragm (47).

CAUTION: DO NOT use the lever (48) to push the spindle body (49) into the box bottom (59) as this will bend the lever.

9. Screw the small diameter bore of the inlet fitting (55) into the end of the spindle body (49) until the notches on the inlet fitting and box bottom (59) are aligned.

10. Align the notches of the locking slide ring (58) to the notches on the inlet fitting (55) and box bottom (59). Use the palm of your hand to carefully push the locking slide ring all the way into place until it clicks.

11. Insert the 5mm hex bit socket and flex wrench into the open end of the inlet fitting (55). Hold the box bottom (59) at eye level and turn the valve seat (56) clockwise until the lever (48) drops just below the rim of the box bottom. Check by gently pushing down and releasing the lever, it should return to its set position. If it sticks then the lever is not squarely seated, positioned correctly or is bent.

CAUTION: Ensure the lever (48) moves freely in the box bottom (59) and does not stick.

12. Place the diaphragm (47) into the box bottom (59), making sure the edges are seated below the threads inside the box bottom. Install the front cover (46) over the diaphragm making sure the front cover slots are positioned horizontally.

13. Insert the pin spanner on the 5 in 1 tool into the slots of the retaining ring (45) and screw it into the box bottom (59) finger tight. Ensure the front cover slots have remained in a horizontal position. Screw the purge cover (44) onto the box bottom until hand-tight.

NOTE: The valve seat (56) is a reverse thread into the inlet fitting (55).

CAUTION: DO NOT adjust the lever (48) beyond the recommended height. Screwing the valve seat (56) in too far while adjusting the lever can result in damage to the MP seat (54). If damaged, the part will require replacement.


14. Install the mouthpiece (61) onto the box bottom (59). Loosely fasten a strap clamp (60) into the groove at the base of the mouthpiece. Position the clamp strap tab on the MP hose side of the mouthpiece. Pull the clamp tight and trim the excess using diagonal pliers. Ensure the excess strap has been cut so it is flush with the tab on the clamp strap.

15. Refit the hose (38) onto the second stage and tighten the hose nut until it stops. DO NOT use any tools as this will damage the connection. Audible clicks should be heard as the hose is tightened into place. Check the hose nut cannot be loosened without squeezing the locking slide ring (58).

NOTE: The mouthpiece can be adjusted to several different user preferred positions. (Reference the User's Manual for more information).

19

FINAL TESTING

Subjective Test

2. Press the front cover (46) two times for about five seconds each, with a five second pause between each purge. Ensure no leaks can be heard coming from the second stage. If a leak is detected, refer to Table 2 : Troubleshooting Guide section of this manual to determine its possible cause.

3. Perform a subjective breathing test to ensure the second stage is operating properly using the following procedure:

a. Fully depress the purge cover (44) to ensure an adequate volume of air passes through the second stage to clear out any water.b. Inhale slowly but deeply from the mouthpiece (61). A properly serviced and adjusted regulator should deliver air upon deep inhalation without excessive inhalation effort, free-flow or fluttering of the second stage diaphragm (47). When exhaling, there should be no fluttering or sticking of the exhalation valve (63). If any of these problems occur, refer to Table 1 & 2: Troubleshooting Guides section of this manual to determine its possible cause.

WARNING: The SEA is designed to assist helicopter air crew members and passengers in emergency egress situations from submerged aircraft. It is very critical to ensure that no leakage is present and the SEA has met all requirements in the Final Testing section of this manual. DO NOT issue to a crew member or passenger any SEA which exhibits any signs of leakage or unsatisfactory performance until the problem has been thoroughly diagnosed and repairs have been made as needed, including the possible replacement of a damaged component or subassembly.

WARNING: Compressed air can be highly explosive and is dangerous if misused. Ensure the cylinder valve is opened slowly. Use eye and ear personal protective equipment when performing any tests involving compressed air.

1. Slowly open the handwheel (26) to pressurize the system. Check the dial indicator gauge (14) reads 3000 PSI (206 BAR) indicating a full cylinder (42 or 43).

1. Ensure the handwheel (26) is in the open position and the system is pressurized. Check the dial indicator gauge (14) reads 3000 PSI (206 BAR) indicating a full cylinder (42 or 43) .

Immersion Test

NOTE: Do not confuse bubbles from trapped air with a true leak. If a true leak is detected, bubbles will come out in a constant stream.

1. Ensure the unit is pressurized with the handwheel (26) in the open position. Check the dial indicator gauge (14) reads 3000 PSI (206 BAR) indicating a full cylinder (42 or 43). Set the SEA in a stable temperature environment for a minimum of twelve hours. After the time has elapsed, check the dial indicator gauge (14) reads 3000 PSI.

Pressure Drop Test

WARNING: If the dial indicator gauge (14) does not read "3000 PSI" after 12 hours, refer to Table 1 & 2: Troubleshooting Guides section of this manual to determine its possible cause.

NOTE: The SEA must be cleaned and sanitized as per local instructions before issue.

2. Upon completion of the pressure drop test, ensure all water is removed from the unit. Refill the SEA to the fill pressure as indicated on the cylinder. Close the hand-wheel (26) when filling is complete, depressurize the unit and replace the fill port cap (31).

3. Providing the SEA has passed all testing and the cylinder has been filled to its full capacity as marked, the SEA is now ready for use.

2. Submerge the entire system in a test tank of clean water. Shake the unit to remove trapped bubbles. Observe any bub-bles rising from the submerged system over a five minute period. The recommended time is necessary due to slower bubble formation that occurs in smaller leaks. Bubbles indi-cate a leak, which requires the system to be disassembled at the source to check sealing surfaces, assembly sequence and component positioning in order to correct the problem.

Cleaning Brass & Stainless Steel Parts1. Pre-clean in warm, soapy water* using a nylon bristle tooth brush.2. Thoroughly clean parts in an ultrasonic cleaner filled with soapy water. If there are stubborn deposits, household white distilled vinegar (acetic acid) in an ultrasonic cleaner will work well. DO NOT place plastic, rubber, silicone or anodized aluminum parts in vinegar.3. Remove parts from the ultrasonic cleaner and rinse with fresh water. If tap water is extremely “hard,” place the parts in a bath of distilled water to prevent any mineral residue. Agitate lightly and allow to soak for 5-10 minutes. Remove and blow dry with clean, low pressure filtered air and inspect closely to ensure proper cleaning and like-new condition.

Cleaning Anodized Aluminum, Plastic & Rubber PartsAnodized aluminum parts and parts made of plastic, rubber or silicone such as box bottoms, box tops, dust caps, diaphragms, etc., may be soaked and cleaned in a solution of warm water mixed with mild dish soap. Use only a soft nylon toothbrush to scrub away any deposits. Rinse in fresh water and thoroughly blow dry, using low pressure filtered air.

Cleaning Hoses1. Hose fittings: Ultrasonically clean with soapy water*; vinegar OK on tough corrosion – (only hose ends).2. Run soapy water through hose if needed.3. Thoroughly rinse with fresh water– (hang with hose ends down).4. Blow out hose before installing.

Lubrication and DressingAll o-rings should be lubricated with Christo-Lube® MCG 111. Dress the o-rings with a very light film of lubricant and remove any visible excess by running the o-ring between thumb and forefinger. Avoid applying excessive amounts of Christo-Lube® MCG 111, as this will attract particulate matter that may cause damage to the o-ring.

*Soapy water is defined as “household” grade liquid dishwashing detergent diluted in warm water.

PROCEDURE A: CLEANING AND LUBRICATING

CAUTION: Do not place plastic, rubber, silicone or anodized aluminum parts in acid solutions. Doing so may alter the physical properties of the component, causing it to prematurely degrade and/or break.

CAUTION: Silicone grease and sprays must be strictly avoided, since silicone does not provide adequate lubricity in extreme weather conditions.
