BUOYANCY CHAMBER - INFLATING THE BUOYANCY CHAMBER
THE PRESSURE GAUGE
INFLATION
1º/Place all valves in inflation position.
2º/ Fit the adaptor that matches the diameter of the "easy-
push" valve to the inflation tube tip.
3º/ Attach the hose connector to the inflation pump inflation
valve.
To inflate your buoyancy chamber properly, the inflation pump
should be correctly placed on the ground.
The chamber inflates rapidly if the inflation pump is used
smoothly and without haste.
4º/ Inflate the buoyancy chamber, starting with the first compartment (a) at the bow, to 200 mb
pressure.
5º/ Then inflate the midship chambers (b), to 220 mb pressure, read on the pressure gauge on the
first compartment.
6º/ Then inflate the stern compartments (c) to 240 mb, with the pressure gauge still on the first
compartment. The partitions (1) enable the pressure between each chamber to balance out.
7º/ Inflation is completed: screw on the inflation valve plugs.
WARNING!!!
DO NOT USE A COMPRESSOR OR COMPRESSED AIR CYLINDER.
