Adjust the safety catch at the gun.
The Impulse gun is ready for use.
Instruction for use and operation
A. Preperation
1. Fill the water cylinder with extinguishing agent as described in Para 7.2 of the filling
instructions.
2. Fill the the air pressure cylinder with air as described in Para 7.3 of the filling instructions.
3. The unit will be ready for operation as described in Para 8 of the test and filling
instructions.
4. Put on personal safety wear and breathing apparatus as per standard safety regulations.
B. Use and operation
1. Loosen the connections of the gun at the trolley.
2. Take the IFEX Impulse Gun, and put the strap around the shoulder.
3. Adjust the shoulder strap.
4. Hold the gun upwards at an appr. 30o vertical angle.
5. Check whether the water valve is closed.
6. Take the hose from the trolley.
7. Slowly open the air pressure cylinder valve. There will be 6 bar pressure on the water
container and the water hose, and 25 bar pressure on the gun.
8. Note: The pressure gauge on the pressure regulator only shows the
approximate filling pressure of the air cylinder.
9. Further hold the gun upwards at an 30° vertical angle. Open the water valve. The gun is
filled, when small amounts of water spray through the split rubber diaphrame of the gun.
Close the water valve.
10. Please note:
The Impulse-Technology achieves a very high velocity in that water is shot from the gun
at a high speed. This leads to short but powerful recoil of the gun. In order to minimize
this recoil it is advisory to move the gun forwards while shooting and to bend your body
forwards with your legs in a so-called “walking position”. Always aim slightly below the
aligned target. Pull the trigger evenly and let go immediately after the shot. The air
pressure will be refilled automatically within 3 seconds. Open the water valve and repeat
the extinguishing pr ocess as before. The most effective shot range is between 1 and 10
meters. The maximum shot range is 16 meters.

Place t
he IFEX 3000 Impulse Fire Extinguishing Equipment at its destined location.
Warning:
Before testing of IFEX 3000 Impulse Fire Extinguishing Equipment:
1. Make sure the air pressure valve is closed.
2. Use the drain valve at the water container to release remaining pressure.
3. Make sure there is no remaining pressure in the IFEX- gun or hose. This is
done by triggering the gun repeatedly until the remaining air in the hoses and gun
is evacuated.
Caution:
Put on the gun according to the user manual as there may be a recoil due to the
remaining air in the gun!
11. When well trained in using the gun and rapid shooting is required, simply let the water
valve open and shot when the gun is filled. Use the refilling time to consider where to
place the next shot. For the extinguishing of smaller fires the gun can be filled with
smaller amounts of water simply by opening of the water valve for shorter periods or
through a faster shooting sequence.
12. Regular training and exercise with the IFEX 3000 Impulse fire extinguishing equipment
will result in maximum fire extinguishing efficiency, reducing the time needed to
extinguish fires and the amount of water used.
C. After use of the IFEX Impulse Gun and Trolley
1. Close the water valve, and empty the water chamber.
2. Close the air pressure cylinder valve.
3. Empty the gun by pulling the trigger repeatedly, until the remaining air has left the hoses
and the gun.
4. Open the drain valve at the trolley to reduce the air pressure.
5. Refill the water cylinder with fire extinguishing agent as per Para 7.2 and the air pressure
cylinder as per Para 7.3 of the filling instructions.
6. Put the hoses together, if possible in an 8 form and fold them across the handles of the
trolley.
7. Put the gun into the foot ring of the trolley, and tighten it with the strap.
Test and filling instructions
Please note carefully:
These test and filling instructions describe the standard rules for testing by the user and for
maintenance of the mobile IFEX 3000 Impulse Fire Fighting Equipment. Maintenance should
be carried out as per DIN 14406, part 4, latest edition.

the water container, the pressure containers, the safety equipment, the gun, the hose
connections, the mounting of the water container and the air pressure bottle, the
inscriptions). Equipment and fittings which are damaged will need to be replaced
immediately.
1.2 Spare parts
Use only certified spare parts. IFEX-original parts are certified.
1.3 Testing of the Fire Fighting Equipment according to the testing regulations for
"IFEX 3035 and IFEX 3050 Impulse Fire Fighting Equipment".

"Caution - note warning on page 7"
2.1 Disconnect the air pressure and water hose from the gun.
2.2 Check the shoulder strap for damage.
2.3 Check the screws at the front and back strap connections.
2.4 Check the membrane at the barrel end for damage (the membrane has 6 incisions from
the inside to the outer side, ending appr. 6 mm from the outer side).
2.5 Check the screwed cap on top of the membrane, if necessary tighten it with a special
tool.
2.6 Check the water connection at the gun and the water coupling for damage and
cleanliness.
2.7 Check the water valve for external damage and condition of operation of valve.
2.8 Check the stability of the handle at the gun (key KS 3) as the operational condition of
the triggering mechanism.
2.9 Check the safety mechanism for operation.
2.10 Check the air pressure connection at the gun handle for damage and cleanliness.

1. Testing the extinguishing agent container (by an expert):
The extinguishing agent container needs to be checked by an expert as per directive
2009/104/EC:
· external check – every 2 years
· internal check – every 5 years
· pressure test – every 10 years
Reduce the pressure in the container and empty the container completely. Disconnect all
fittings except the air pressure fitting and close the connections. Remove the safety valve
from the filling unit and close the connections. Fill the container with water through the
filling opening and close the filling unit. Fill the container with 10,4 bar through the air
pressure connector. Check the pressure by a test manometer. The pressure must be held
for 10 minutes. Empty the container and remount the fittings after testing.
Enter results of test in maintenance record Appendix A page 2/page 3.
2. Testing the air pressure container on the gun (by an expert):
The air pressure container needs to be checked by an expert as per directive
2009/104/EC:
· external check – every 2 years
· Pressure test – every 10 years
Remove the bursting disc or safety valve and close the opening with a cylinder screw.
Connect the air pressure hose from the pressure source via a pressure regulator. The
pressure regulator must supply a secondary pressure of 60 bar to the air pressure
coupling of the gun. Put the gun in a water basin, slowly open the valve at the pressure
source, observe the manometer and close the valve as soon as the pressure is 60 bar.
This pressure must be held for 30 seconds. After testing re-install the bursting disc or
safety valve.
