• ANSI Z88.2 latest edition also provides
information and guidelines on the cleaning and
sanitizing of respirators.
1. Make a cleaning solution of warm (120°F or 48°C
maximum) water and a mild detergent.
2. Immerse the facepiece top fi rst in the solution until
the exhalation valve is covered.
3. Agitate the facepiece and gently clean with a soft
brush.
4. Thoroughly rinse the facepiece in fresh water, pay-
ing particular attention to removal of all soap residue
from the exhalation valve. If possible, direct running
water onto the exhalation valve.
5. Disinfect the facepiece in a warm (120°F or 48°C
maximum) suitable sanitizing solution, such as a
"hypochlorite solution" (two [2] tablespoons of chlo-
rine bleach per gallon of water), for two (2) to three
(3) minutes. Rinse thoroughly with fresh warm (120°F
or 48°C maximum) water. If other sanitizing solutions
are used (such as quaternary ammonium or glu-
taraldehyde), follow the manufacturer's instructions
supplied with the sanitizing compound.
6. Allow the facepiece to drip dry. Warm air may be
used to speed up drying.
7. Hold the facepiece fi rmly against your face and ex-
hale several times to ensure that the exhalation valve
functions smoothly.
NOTE
If fogging occurs on the facepiece lens when
exhaled upon, recoat with Honeywell Anti-fog
Solution, P/N 951015 (1 oz.), or P/N 961016 (16
oz.), or Anti-fog Wipe, P/N 981805.
B. Second Stage Regulator Cleaning
WARNING
Do not allow water or cleaning solutions to
enter the breathing system or the regulator.
Dirt, dust, or soap residue could degrade
regulator performance, causing it to fail,
possibly resulting in injury or death. Do not
submerge the regulator in water or cleaning
solutions.
It may be partially submerged
only as instructed in steps 4 and 5 below.
Failure to comply with this warning may lead
to personal injury, illness, or death.
NOTE
• Always hold the regulator with the outlet facing
downward during washing and rinsing.
• The Protective Cleaning Cap, P/N 961170,
must be used to seal the second stage regulator
to prevent water or contaminants from entering
the regulator outlet.
1. Make a cleaning solution of warm water and a mild
detergent.
2. Have a bucket of fresh water available for rinsing.

3. Install the second stage cleaning cap, P/N 961170.
4. With the regulator facing downward, clean the
exterior surfaces with a soft brush.
5. With the regulator facing downward, immediately
rinse the exterior with fresh water. Scrub excess
soap away with the brush. Remove the second stage
cleaning cap. If water enters the second stage regula-
tor while cleaning, fl ow the regulator and bypass to
expel all moisture.
6. Using a damp, lint-free cloth, clean the interior of
the outlet tube.
7. Dry with a clean cloth or with low pressure Grade
D (15 psig maximum) clean air.
8. If dirt or debris interferes with the First-Breath-On
mechanism, clean it as follows:
a. Remove the two Phillips screws that secure the
rubber manual override button cover to the second
stage regulator.
b. Remove the two plastic retainers from which
you removed the screws.
c. Lift off the rubber manual override button cover.
d. Place the protective cleaning cap over the outlet
tube.
e. Hold the regulator with the cover facing down-
ward and rinse in a shallow bucket of fresh water.
f. Allow the water to drain, and dry with low pres-
sure Grade D air (15 psig maximum) directed into
the venting groove under the shutoff button.
g. Reinstall the rubber manual override button
cover.
h. Reinstall the two plastic retainers.
i. Reinstall the two Phillips screws.
C. Exterior Surfaces Cleaning
WARNING
Do not use cleaning solutions containing
chlorine to clean the harness, or degradation
of the harness material may result. Failure
to comply with this warning may lead to
personal injury, illness, or death.
CAUTION
Do not allow cleaning solutions to enter the
breathing system.
The hoses, backpack harness, frame, and cylinder/
valve assembly may be cleaned with a damp cloth or a
mild soap and warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly
and air dry or wipe with a clean cloth.
D. Inspection (see Inspection Table, page 27)
Honeywell recommends that the Titan SCBA be fully
inspected upon initial receipt and on a regular schedule
thereafter. See page 28 for recommended inspection
procedures.
