WARRIOR ™ Operation Manual
• The RIC UAC has a dust plug which must be
installed over the coupling at all times before and
after filling operations.
known CBRN contaminated atmospheres. Use of a
facepiece other than a CBRN facepiece will void
NIOSH CBRN certification and may lead to personal
injury, illness, or death.
• DO NOT allow oil, grease, or other contaminants to
come in contact with the quick-disconnect couplings.
The WARRIOR SCBA includes a CBRN
TwentyTwenty Plus facepiece (2720XX). The
butyl rubber TwentyTwenty Plus facepiece
has a special wide-lip sealing surface and
five-point silicone headstrap harness or
optional Headnet™ harness. The lens is
treated with an abrasion-resistant coating
on the outside surface of the lens, and a
permanent anti-fog coating on the inside of
the lens. The nozzle houses a removable
nose cup, speaking diaphragm, and
exhalation valve. The AIR KLIC is threaded
into the nozzle by a ratchet mechanism to
prevent leakage and provide a secure
mount for the second stage regulator.
• DO NOT use air other than breathing air, Grade D
or better, conforming to CGA G-7.1 Commodity
Specification for Air. The moisture content, expressed
as dewpoint, shall be maintained at -65°F (-53.9°C)
or lower, or less than 24.0 ppm by volume moisture
content.
• The Sperian RIC UAC or RIC UAC fill hose must
ONLY be used to fill compressed air cylinders. The
Sperian RIC UAC or RIC UAC fill hose must NEVER
be used:
1. As a buddy breathing device.
2. For SCBA-to-SCBA filling.
3. To provide a continuous air supply.
• Failure to comply with this Warning may lead to
personal injury, illness, or death.
G. Rapid Intervention Crew/Company
Universal Air Connection (RIC UAC)
NOTE
The WARRIOR SCBA comes equipped with the
Rapid Intervention Crew/Company Universal Air
Connection (RIC UAC).
V. UNPACKAGING
IMPORTANT—READ CAREFULLY
1. The RIC UAC and fill hose (purchased
separately in the P/N 968970 RIT Kit)
provide a means for filling SCBA cylinders
during a rescue. An attendant/rescue
crew member must assist with the cylinder
filling.
A. Warranty Card
NOTE
The warranty is void unless the warranty card is
returned to the factory within 30 days of
purchase.
1. Fill in the form with the required
information.
2. The RIC UAC is located on the lower left
hand side (when looking at the cylinder
with the valve pointing down) of the
backpack. The RIC UAC is accompanied
by a relief valve located on the back of
the first stage regulator inside of the
backpack lower cover. The relief valve is
designed to vent air to atmosphere when
the fill pressure exceeds the cylinder
service pressure, in order to prevent
cylinder over-pressurization. The RIC UAC
has a dust plug which must be installed
over the coupling at all times before and
after filling operations. The RIC UAC fill
hose has the mating fill coupling. A
directional flow control piston is located in
the quick disconnect coupling to prevent
air loss and hose whipping if the hose is
installed incorrectly. The quick disconnect
coupling is supplied with dust plugs which
must be installed when the fill hose is not
in use.
2. Mail back the completed warranty
registration card immediately.
3. To comply with NIOSH, Sperian is
required to retain the completed
warranty registration card.
4. Always refer to the equipment serial
number if a claim is made.
B. Removing the SCBA from the Packaging
1. Carrying case
a. Remove the carrying case from the
box.
b. Lift both locking tabs on the case and
