Repacking Instructions for Passenger Masks
CAUTION
Do not use oil or other petroleum-based lubricants on passenger oxygen
masks or deployment containers. Oil-based lubricants are a fire hazard in
oxygen-rich environments. Repacking procedures shall be performed by
personnel familiar with the instructions and warnings in this document.
Improper packing can damage the masks or result in failure of the masks to
deploy.
WARNING
Masks shall be repacked in an area free of oil, grease, flammable solvents
or other contaminants.
1. Inspect and disinfect the mask and deployment container with an aqueous
solution of Zephiran Chloride (Scott Aviation P/N 00-2572) or with
disinfection cleaners (EROS P/N SAN50). After disinfecting and thoroughly
drying the mask, lightly dust the outside of the facepiece with Neo-Novacite
powder (Scott Aviation P/N 00-736). Contamination can be removed with
mild soap and water solution.
2. Fold the headstrap into the facepiece. Pull the lanyard cord outward to the
facepiece’s side so that it does not interfere with repacking.
3. Lay the reservoir bag on a flat surface and smooth out any wrinkles.
