GENERAL PRECAUTIONS & WARNINGS WARNING: Before using the Atlantis, you must have successfully received training and certification in the technique of SCUBA diving from a Military or government operated diving school (or any recognized certification agency). Use of this equipment by a person who is not certified by a recognized agency shall render all warranties, express or implied, null and void.

WARNING: Use of SCUBA equipment by uncertified or untrained persons is dangerous and can result in serious injury or death.

WARNING: In an emergency such as an out of air situation or uncontrolled rapid descent, it is important to remove and jettison weight immediately.

WARNING: In the event of an uncontrolled, rapid ascent, it is important to immediately begin venting air from the Atlantis. Continue venting air to slow your ascent rate if neutral buoyancy cannot be reestablished.

WARNING: Your jacket is not a lift bag. DO NOT rely on it to bring heavy objects to the surface. Doing so may permanently damage the jacket and could result in serious injury or death.

WARNING: NEVER lubricate any part of the jacket with any lubricant. Lubrication of certain parts and assemblies must only be performed by an Aqua Lung® trained service technician.

WARNING: Do not apply any type of aerosol spray to the jacket. Doing so may damage certain plastic components, including important valve connections.

WARNING: Repair, service or disassembly must not be attempted by persons who are not factory trained and authorized by Aqua Lung America, Inc. Unauthorized service will render the warranty null and void.

WARNING: A buoyancy compensator (BC) is NOT a life jacket! It is not designed to provide face-up flotation in all situations; therefore it does not meet U.S. Coast Guard regulations for a life preserver or personal flotation device (PFD). If you become unconscious in the water without a buddy present to immediately give assistance, you may suffer serious injury or death from drowning.

Your jacket primarily designed to help you maintain neutral buoyancy while in a comfortably balanced, face-down swimming position underwater. It is also designed to provide you with flotation so that you can rest on the surface, but it is not designed to function as a life preserver or personal flotation device (PFD). In order to meet U.S. Coast Guard regulations, a PFD must be designed so that it automatically rights you to a face-up position and holds your head out of the water on the surface. The design characteristics of a personal flotation device are different from those of a buoyancy compensator. The ability of any flotation device to float you in a face-up position can also be affected by other diving equipment you wear, including a cylinder, weight or exposure suit and whether it can be inflated before you lose consciousness. For this reason, it is important always to dive with a buddy and maintain close proximity with them at all times. Do not depend on any flotation device to hold your face above the surface in the event that you are rendered unconscious in the water while diving.

WARNING: Although this manual provides some basic guidelines for certain buoyancy control techniques, it is not a substitute for training from a professional diving instructor. Failure to weight yourself properly may create a hazardous condition that could lead to serious injury or death. If you are unsure how to weight yourself in order to achieve optimum buoyancy underwater and on the surface, do not dive until you have obtained the necessary instruction from your diving instructor. If you have any questions regarding your Buoyancy Compensator or these instructions, contact Aqua Lung at (760) 597-5000 9

PRODUCT OVERVIEW This buoyancy jacket is specifically designed for military use with all types of back or chest worn breathing apparatus, including open circuit SCUBA, semi-closed circuit or closed circuit rebreathers. The Atlantis features two air cylinder attachments that allow you to inflate the vest with compressed breathing air. The air cylinders come equipped with a standard connection for use on the jacket. The distribution of the buoyancy chambers provides excellent safety performance, either during buoyant ascent (vertical stability) or at the surface (natural support position with head and shoulders out of the water). The bladder is constructed of heavy duty urethane coated 1000 denier black fabric which resists cuts, tears and abrasion. Two drains with tethered caps on the lower lobe side makes draining fast and easy. Two flaps with closures on both sides protect the cylinders. The bag is sewn throughout with high strength nylon. Openings at the bottom allow the cylinder valve to be easily accessible for inflation. A crotch harness with split strap design provides greater comfort while maintaining ease of adjustment.

An optional containment collar (pn 762961) is available for the Atlantis, which helps streamline the vest when not fully inflated. It features an easy to install bungee system, plush collar (to reduce neck chaffing) and installation instructions.

Military Oral Inflator Assembly (Standard) • Orally inflate by depressing the button end of assembly and exhaling into bladder (Fig. 1). • Used in conjunction with HP cylinders (described on next page).

Filling the Auxiliary Air Cylinders To fill the cylinder, you will need an optional fill adapter: Aqua Lung part number 101215 (Fig. 4).

Fig. 4 11

1. Before attempting to fill the auxiliary air cylinder, ensure that the fill adapter and valve are completely dry, especially in the area surrounding the valve outlet. Examine the cylinder markings to verify that it is rated for a fill pressure of 3000 psi (206 BAR). 2. Using a calibrated pressure gauge, check the supply cylinder is filled to 3000 psi (206 BAR). It is very important to ensure that the auxiliary air cylinder is filled to its total capacity, but not overfilled.

WARNING: DO NOT attempt to fill the cylinder if the markings indicate that it is rated for a different fill pressure other than 3000 psi (206 BAR). Doing so may result in rupture or explosion in the event of fire or overfilling. Instead, immediately return the unit to a qualified technician and do not use under any circumstances.

3. Inspect the o-ring at the end of the fill adapter to make sure it is in good condition. Thread the adapter onto the threaded outlet boss on the cylinder valve until finger tight (Fig. 5).

Check O-ring

Fig. 5

4. Loosen the yoke knob. While supporting the auxiliary air cylinder in one hand, attach the adapter to a fully pressurized 3000 psi (206 BAR) SCUBA cylinder (Fig. 6).

Bleed Valve Yoke Knob

Fig. 6

5. Close the bleed valve on the adapter by turning clockwise until finger tight. 12 Atlantis Technical Manual

6. Open the handwheel on the auxiliary air cylinder counter-clockwise until the valve is completely open. 7. VERY SLOWLY open the valve on the scuba cylinder.

NOTE: Always fill the auxiliary air cylinder as slowly as possible by turning the handwheel of the supply valve slowly to control the rate of fill. Rapid filling will generate heat and will result in an incomplete fill after the cylinder cools. Make sure not to over-inflate or inflate too rapidly. If the cylinder is warm to the touch afterward, the fill rate was too rapid.

8. Close the valve of the supply cylinder and then the valve of the auxiliary air cylinder. Slowly loosen the bleed valve by turning it counter-clockwise to relieve the high pressure air trapped in the adapter. 9. Loosen the yoke knob and remove the adapter from the supply cylinder. Unscrew the adapter from the auxiliary cylinder valve. Place the dust cap back in place and tighten the yoke knob.

Attaching the Auxiliary Air Cylinders 1. Before attaching the cylinder, inspect the o-ring located at the tip of the cylinder valve connector (Fig. 7).

Check O-ring

Fig. 7 2. Insert the cylinder into the retaining sleeve and align the threaded valve outlet with the cylinder valve connector. Turn the connector nut counter-clockwise and thread the cylinder valve connector onto the valve outlet until finger tight (Fig. 8).

Fig. 8 13

INFLATION METHODS The Atlantis accommodates three different inflation systems:

Inflation via the Military Oral Inflator To orally inflate your BC (Fig. 9), place your lips on the oral inflator mouthpiece (A) and exhale a small amount of air into the mouthpiece to purge away water that may still be in the housing. While continuing to exhale into the mouthpiece, depress the oral inflator button(B) to inflate the BC. Immediately after exhaling, release the oral inflator button to prevent air from escaping.

Fig. 9 Inflation via the Powerline Inflator The Powerline inflator can be used to orally inflate the BC as described above (Fig. 10 mouthpiece A and oral inflator B). The BC can also be inflated by pressing the Powerline inflator button (E). For the power inflator to work, the low pressure inflator hose must be connected. To connect the LP inflator hose, grip the grooved sleeve (C) with your thumb and forefinger and slide the sleeve back. Place the hose fitting over the quick disconnect (QD) fitting (D) and push inward while releasing the sleeve. Check to ensure the hose is securely attached. To inflate your BC with medium pressure air (MP), depress the power inflate button (E). Do not hold the inflator button depressed continuously underwater, as this could cause you to become excessively buoyant. Instead, depress the button in short bursts until you become neutrally buoyant.

C D

A B

Fig. 10

Inflation via the Auxiliary Air Cylinders To inflate the BC using the auxiliary air cylinders, open the cylinder valve by turning the handwheel counter- clockwise. Close the cylinder valve when the bladder is adequately filled, otherwise, air will escape from the Over Pressure Relief Valve (OPRV). 14 Atlantis Technical Manual

DEFLATION METHODS Throughout the course of a dive, it may be necessary to release air from the Atlantis using one of the two methods described in the following instructions. Each method uses a valve that is in a different location. The method you choose at any time may depend on whether you are making your initial descent feet-first, head-first or maintaining neutral buoyancy underwater. Always remember to utilize the valve that is at the highest point on the bladder (closest to the surface), depending on your position in the water.

Deflation via Rapid Exhaust Valve (REV) (Primary Method) Inside the inflator’s spiral hose is a steel cable that attaches the inflator to the dual valve at the top of the airway assembly. You can vent air from the Atlantis by firmly pulling straight down on the inflator. Once resistance is felt, a pull of only .25 in (7mm) is required. The Rapid Exhaust Valve (REV) provides an effective and convenient way to vent air from the BC while in either an upright or face down swimming position (Fig. 11). It also functions as an Over Pressure Relief Valve (OPRV) that will open automatically to relieve excessive air pressure. This feature is very critical for preventing stress or damage to the BC bladder (Fig. 12).

Fig. 11 Fig. 12

CAUTION: The proper function of the Over Pressure Relief Valve (OPRV) is vital to prevent damage to the BC bladder. Unauthorized service or tampering may render this valve inoperable and could cause the bladder to leak or burst. This type of damage is not repairable and is not covered under warranty.

WARNING: Most training agencies recommend that you descend in an upright, feet-first position, in order to maintain a slower and more controlled descent. This is especially true if you experience difficulty equalizing your ears or if you are descending in low visibility conditions.

Deflation via Oral Inflator (Secondary Method) To deflate the Atlantis using the oral inflator, lift the inflator body to its highest possible position (above the head). Press the oral inflator button (Figs. 9 & 10 Step. B, previous page) to start venting air. This method is most effective on the surface when starting the initial descent.

NOTE: To deflate the Atlantis using the oral inflator (secondary deflation method), the oral inflator must be untied from the oral inflator cord (military oral inflator only). The oral inflator cannot be raised above the head while tied to the oral inflator cord.

NOTE: Depressing the oral inflator while the jacket is empty may cause water to enter the air bladder. 15

DONNING & ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES

Donning 1. The upper back strap has a single male quick-release buckle. Attach the single male quick-release buckle to the female buckle at the top of the Atlantis (Fig. 13A). A 2. Connect one waist strap male quick-release buckle to the female buckle located on the side lobe of the BC (Fig. 13B). Insert your arm through the vest as if you were putting on a jacket. Place the crotch strap (Fig. 13D) inside the waist strap assembly to prevent B C B snagging. Reach back with one hand and connect the second male quick-release buckle to the female buckle on the opposite side lobe. C C

Fig. 13

3. Bring the free end of the crotch strap between your legs and connect the male quick-release buckles to the two lower female buckles at the front of the Atlantis (Fig.14D).

4. Connect the male quick-release buckle to the female quick-release buckle of the chest strap, this is located just above the crotch strap (Fig.14E).

Adjusting strap length C E 1. The length of the straps may be adjusted by holding the strap and moving the 3-bar slide (C). After adjusting the position of the 3-bar slide, readjust the strap through the quick release buckle. Ensure D any excess webbing is secured back thorough the 3-bar slide.

2. Once the straps are readjusted, don the Atlantis to make sure the adjustments are correct.

Diver Name______Date______

Atlantis Number______

WARNING: Before each use, the Atlantis must be given a thorough visual inspection and functional test. NEVER dive with an Atlantis BC that shows signs of damage to its bladder or valves until it has received a complete inspection and service.

Initials

______1. Visually Inspect the Atlantis, all harness assemblies and buckles.

______2. Check the oral inflator button shaft for corrosion. This can be done by looking through the inspection holes in the side of the oral inflator lower assembly and inside the mouthpiece.

______3. Manually exercise the Rapid Exhaust Valve (REV) by pulling on the spiral hose, .25 in (7 mm) is all the pull required to open the REV. Excessive force will damage the airway.

______4. Install 2 fully charged 3000 PSI (206 BAR) air cylinders to the Atlantis.

______5. Orally inflate the Atlantis until the bladder is completely full. Slightly open the valve on the air cylinder to over-pressurize the Atlantis until the OPRV opens to relieve excess pressure. Close the cylinder valve. Verify the OPRV reseats and keeps the bladder fully inflated. Recharge the cylinder as required.

______6. While the vest is still inflated, check the function of both the REV and the oral inflation valve (See Deflation Methods). Ensure rapid and unobstructed exhaust from each valve.

______7. Check the dual valve connector, caps and cylinder valve connectors, making sure they are sealed and no air is escaping.

______8. Fully inflate the Atlantis once again and let it sit for 10 minutes to check for leaks and firmness.

______9. Verify that all harness straps are connected properly in the correct mission configuration. Verify all buckles operate correctly.

______10. Diving Supervisor will check previous steps and record deficiencies below.

WARNING: If any leakage can be heard or if the bladder begins to deflate within 10 minutes, DO NOT attempt to use the Atlantis until it has been repaired by a trained technician.

Check to ensure that no separation occurs at the attachment point and the spiral hose remains seated flush against the base of the inflator housing. 5. Connect one full cylinder to the cylinder valve connector. Turn the cylinder valve clockwise to the on position and inflate the bladder until the over pressure relief valve (OPRV) releases the excess air from the bladder. Turn off cylinder and remove the cylinder from the BC. Check caps, airway and cylinder valve connectors for any signs of leakage. If no leakage is detected, let bladder stand inflated for one hour. Check the firmness of the bladder after one hour has passed. Ensure the bladder has remained firm and no air loss has occurred. If the bladder has lost air, recheck all connections, inflate BC, submerge and check for leaks. If a continuous leak is detected, the component must be disassembled and examined for damage or contamination of the seals and seating surfaces.

3. Finally, bend the spiral hose at a right angle. If the spiral hose shows any sign of separating from the inflator assembly it is important to replace the clamps.

NOTE: If leakage is not immediately detected, allow the BC to stand for at least one hour to ensure that none exists.

CAUTION: Do not use muriatic acid for the cleaning of any parts. Even if strongly diluted, muriatic acid can harm chrome plating and may leave a residue that is harmful to o-ring seals and other parts.

Acid bath for reusable stainless steel White distilled vinegar “Household” grade and brass parts.

Degreaser for brass and stainless steel Non-ionic Liquid dishwashing parts; general cleaning solution for plastic “Household” grade detergent (diluted with warm water) and rubber. 28 Atlantis Technical Manual

Procedure A: Cleaning and Lubricating

Cleaning Brass and Stainless Steel Parts 1. Preclean in warm, soapy water* using a nylon bristle tooth brush. 2. Thoroughly clean parts in an ultrasonic cleaner filled with soapy water. If there are stubborn deposits, household white distilled vinegar (acetic acid) in an ultrasonic cleaner will work well. DO NOT place plastic, rubber or silicone parts in vinegar. 3. Remove parts from the ultrasonic cleaner and rinse with fresh water. If tap water is extremely “hard,” place the parts in a bath of distilled water to prevent any mineral residue. Agitate lightly and allow to soak for 5-10 minutes. Remove and blow dry with low pressure 1.7 BAR (25 psi) filtered air. Inspect closely to ensure proper cleaning and like-new condition.

Cleaning Plastic & Rubber Parts Parts made of plastic or rubber may be soaked and cleaned in a solution of warm water mixed with mild dish soap. Use only a soft nylon toothbrush to scrub away any deposits. Rinse in fresh water and thoroughly blow dry, using low pressure filtered air.

CAUTION: Do not place plastic and rubber parts in acid solutions. Doing so may alter the physical properties of the component, causing it to prematurely degrade and/or break.

Cleaning Hoses 1. Hose fittings: Ultrasonically clean with soapy water*; vinegar is OK on tough corrosion (hose ends only). 2. Run soapy water through hose if needed. 3. Thoroughly rinse with fresh water (hang with hose ends down). 4. Blow out hose before installing.

Lubrication and Dressing All o-rings should be lubricated with Christo-Lube® MCG 111. Dress the o-rings with a very light film of grease and remove any visible excess by running the o-ring between thumb and forefinger. Avoid applying excessive amounts of Christo-Lube grease, as this will attract particulate matter that may cause damage to the o-ring.

*Soapy water is defined as “household” grade liquid dishwashing detergent diluted in warm water. 29
