Cleaning backpack and harness ✔✔ 1. Ensure a cylinder is connected to the SCBA before
decontamination
2. Ensure battery module is installed prior to decontamination/sanitation
3. use a sponge dampened with a mild soap solution or a soft/medium bristle brush to remove
deposits from the following components:
• Harness (straps and buckles)
• Carrier (band and latch assembly)
• Cylinder (handwheel, gauge, outlet connection)
• Pressure reducer (bell and coupling not connection)
• Control module
• Power module
• Battery
• Speaker module
• Regulator surface NOTE: Put a cover on the regulator outlet to prevent water, dirt, or debris
from going into the regulator.
4. Make sure there is no water, moisture, or dampness on or in any of the components before
returning the SCBA to service Return SCBA to service when dry and after post use inspection is
completed and documente
When to sanitize the MSA G1 regulator ✔✔ 1. Sanitizing the regulator is required if you feel the
regulator has been contaminated. 2. If the regulator has been exposed to a biohazard sanitize
the regulator
3. The SCBA can not be used until the regulator is dry on the interior.
4. Sanitizing the regulator is not required during day to say operations or post use.
, 5. It is safe to sanitize the regulator as outlined in this power point but not required as part of
routine cleaning or post use checks.
Sanitizing the regulator ✔✔ 1. Depress the regulator release buttons to ensure the regulator is
shut off.
2. Rotate the bypass knob clockwise to ensure the regulator bypass is shut off.
3. Pressurize the SCBA and regulator. The regulator must be pressurized during the entire
washing and disinfecting procedure.
4. Prepare a solution of Confidence Plus 2 Germicidal Cleaner (US Part No. 10009971) and warm
water (43 Celsius) in accordance with the Confidence Plus 2 instructions.
5. Submerge the regulator in the Confidence Plus 2 solution for a minimum of 30 seconds in
accordance with the Confidence Plus 2 instructions.
6. Use a soft-bristle brush to clean the external surfaces of the regulator.
7. While submerged, agitate the regulator in the Confidence Plus 2 solution to further loosen
dirt and debris.
8. Remove the regulator from the Confidence Plus 2 solution. Orient and shake the regulator
lightly to remove excess Confidence Plus 2 solution.
9. Rinse the regulator in clean warm water (90-110°F). Ensure that both the external and
internal regulator surfaces are rinsed. 10. Orient and shake the regulator lightly to remove
excess water from rinsing. Use a clean lint-free cloth to remove excess rinse water from external
regulator surfaces.
11. Open the regulator bypass for 3-5 seconds to remove excess water from the regulator valve
assembly. Rotate the bypass knob clockwise to shut off the regulator bypass.
12. Depressurize the SCBA. Open the regulator bypass to depressurize the regulator. Rotate the
bypass knob clockwise to shut off the regulator bypass. 13. Allow the regulator to dry
completely prior to use. Drying time will vary depending on ambient air temperature and
humidity. If a drying cabinet is used, ensure that the temperature does not exceed 120°F.
