SR900 — How to 

Copyright © 2016 by The S.E.A. Group 

The mask should collapse against your face and 

remain collapsed until you breathe out again. 

 

If the mask returns quickly to its normal shape, 

there may be a leakage problem. If so, repeat 

the leakage test. If the same problem happens 

again, see your supervisor. 

 

 

Remove a filter 

Pull the rubber tab at the bottom of the filter 

flange and peel back the rubber rim until the 

filter is free. 

 

 

 

 

Wear your breathing hose 

There are two types of breathing hose: single 

and twin.  

Most SR900 configurations can use either the 

single or twin hose. 

 

You can use the hose as is, but if your work 

involves heat, sparks or open flames, you may 

choose to cover the hose with a protective 

flame-resistant cover. Both the single and twin 

hoses can be protected in this way. Slip the 

protective cover around the hose. If required, 

fasten with the Velcro straps. 

 

 

 

Whatever breathing device you use, the single 

hose is designed to be worn on either side of the 

body. The twin hose is worn on both sides of 

your neck.
