Specifications

Proposal Number PSDF #P09-0004
The breathing air system service and operation shall be covered in the manuals provided with the apparatus
on delivery. In addition, the manufacturer shall supply a certificate of air quality on delivery of the
apparatus.
The installation shall include the following equipment:
1. Two (2) 6000 PSI 509 cubic foot DOT air cylinders
2. Two (2) pressure gauges on the cylinders
3. One (1) air pressure regulator with downstream pressure gauge
4. One (1) low pressure alarm system
5. One (1) Grade D air filter
6. Two (2) air outlets in platform basket
AERIAL BREATHING AIR SYSTEM REFILL AND REFILL HOSE
A breathing air quarter-turn refill valve shall be mounted between the breathing air regulator and the air
cylinder and shall be used for refilling the base section air cylinders.
In addition, 75 feet of high pressure breathing air hose shall be provided with appropriate quick disconnect
fittings.
AERIAL BREATHING AIR OUTLET AT THE TURNTABLE
One (1) breathing air quick disconnect shall be mounted and installed at the turntable, with piping to the
breathing air system.
SMART AERIAL AIR MONITOR
The Smart Aerial breathing air system shall be installed. The Smart Aerial Air Monitor has a single LED
light that shall be located at the aerial control panel and the platform control panel.
The Air Monitor uses a pre-calibrated pressure range based on the full calibration of the air bottle. An LED
indicator light flashes in a slow, two flashes per second pattern when the system pressure reaches 30 percent
or less. When the pressure is below 20 percent, the light flashes rapidly, 5 flashes per second, and a warning
horn chirps twice every three seconds. When air pressure is less then 1 percent, the warning horn stops
chirping, but the RED LED indicator light remains flashing at a rate of 5 flashes per second.
MOUNTING PLATE FOR AXE -- PLATFORM BASKET
Mounting plates shall be installed for an axe mounting in the right rear corner on the inside of the platform
basket.
MOUNTING PLATE FOR PIKE POLE -- FLY SECTION
Welded-in mounting plates shall be installed for a pike pole mounting on the left side of the fly section.
PLATFORM FLOOR LIGHTING
LED rope lighting will be provided to illuminate the platform. The platform floor lighting shall be activated
by the aerial master switch.
