Pack the IS-MIX for transport to the dive site
If diving is to take place at a date later than the prepared time, the equipment should be packed in accordance with these instructions. In order to protect the breathing hoses with full face mask and pressure gauge, store them inside the cover of the IS-MIX when the equipment is transported.
Tip: In order to distribute the weight of the IS-MIX during transport, the bellows weight can be removed which may also simplify the assembly of the equipment on the diver. For repeated dives, the bellows weight may be stored at the dive site which thereby simplifies the transport of the IS-MIX.
- Place the pressure gauge on the bellows. Turn the mask 180 degrees ensuring the hose is in the loops and put the mask/mouthpiece on the bellows with the visor upwards.
- Fit and secure the cover with the straps.
- Make sure the switch-over valve on the mask is set in bail-out position and the cylinder valve is closed during transport. The design of the IS-MIX means that a little gas (a control flow) is continuously consumed if the cylinder valve is open.
Tip: During transport several IS-MIX may be stacked on each other. To do this, turn the pieces of apparatus 180º in relation to each other, and the cover and chassis will fit with each other.
To avoid the IS-MIX being damaged when transporting long distances, it should be packed in its transport box.
The IS-MIX may be used for diving within 24 hours of a completed preparation process. If more than 24 hours has elapsed, the equipment must be prepared again before use.
