Kirby 5 manual Regulator Adjustment Knob for Umbilical Pressure H, Pneumo Valve KNOB, White Diver

Page 13

13.REGULATOR ADJUSTMENT KNOB FOR UMBILICAL PRESSURE (H)

The regulator Adjustment Knob (H) allows the operator to adjust the umbilical pressure within a range of 115 psi to 225 psi (8-15.5 bars). Incoming high pressure air from the ‘ORANGE” or “BLUE” supply is reduced by the internal regulator. The Adjustment Knob controls the regulator. Turning the Knob clockwise decreases the umbilical pressure; counterclockwise increases it.

14.OUTLET MANIFOLD INCLUDING DIVER’S UMBILICAL FITTINGS (G)

The “WHITE DIVER” and “RED DIVER” air supply hoses are connected to the KMACS 5 at the manifold (G). The fittings coming out of the KMACS 5 are male #6 JIC (3/8”, 37°) flared fittings. The diver’s air supply hoses must have matching female #6 JIC flared fittings with swivel nuts.

The “WHITE DIVER” and “RED DIVER” pneumo- fathometer hoses are also connected to the KMACS 5 at the manifold (G). The fittings coming out of the KMACS 5 are male #4 JIC ( 1/4”, 37°) flared fittings. The diver’s pneumofathometer hoses must have matching female #4 JIC (1/4”, 37°) flared fit- tings with swivel nuts.

17. O-RING SEAL (U)

The O-ring seal helps keep dust and moisture out of the KMACS 5 when the case is closed. The O-ring seal is not pressure proof, however, and the KMACS 5 case will flood if the box is submerged.

18. COMMUNICATOR PANEL (V)

The diver’s electronic communicator (R) is attached to the communicator panel. The battery for the com- municator is located behind this panel.

19. COMMUNICATOR (R)

The MK3-KMDSI communicator is a standard open circuit/round robin diver’s communicator, which functions like a telephone. It can also be used as a 2 wire, “push-to-talk” system. It is connected to the diver’s umbilicals by “banana plug” fittings on the communicator. The communicator is mounted on the communicator panel. You should read and understand the accompanying radio operations manual supplied with the unit before using the unit. Improper use or connections could damage the radio.

CAUTION: Never connect the charger during a dive or when anyone is in contact with connected equipment. Although electrical shock danger is remote, connection of the recharging cord should only be done when the KMACS 5 is not in use.
