2. Description of the product
2.1 Inventory check
Description Qty.
Set, consisting of:
Support frame 1

3. Operating Instructions
Open the packing cover. Lay out the shower at the required location. The ground area must be free of any sharp-edged or pointed
objects!
The pneumatic 0.3 bar Decon showers are designed to be inated
with a blower or with compressed air.
3.1 Operation with blower
eg. Tent blower 0.23-0.47 bar
(Art. no. 1523017700)
The ination connection for blowers is opened when air ows
through. Connect the ination hose of the blower to the ination
connection of the shower. Make certain there is perfect locking of
the couplings of the ination hose with the shower coupling and
the blower.
Start the blower and ll the shower until the maximum permitted
operating pressure of 0.3 bar/4.35 psi. The decon shower erects
automatically. The safety valve integrated into the support frame
avoids over-ination (greater than 0.3 bar/4.35 psi).
Note! Should parts of the support frame
become caught up during erection
then switch o the blower immediately
and rectify the problem. Ination can
then be continued after doing this.

Connect the pressure regulator with the knurled wheel on the
compressed air bottle. Close the hand wheel (3) of the pressure
regulator. Open the valve on the bottle (5). The manometer (1) indicates the pressure in the bottle. Adjust the back-pressure to approximately 10 bar using the adjustment wheel (4). The set pressure can be checked on the back-pressure manometer (2).
Connect the air hose of the pressure regulator (6) with the brass
coupling (7) of the ination connection.
Open the pressure regulator and start ination. Observe the
shower during the ination process. Close the hand valve when
the operating pressure of 0.3 bar/4.35 psi is reached.
The decon shower erects automatically. The safety valve integrated into the support frame avoids over-ination (greater than 0.3
bar/4.35 psi).

Note! Should parts of the support frame
become caught up during erection then
close the valve of the pressure regulator
immediately and rectify the problem.
Ination can then be continued after doing this.

3.3 Handling of the shower
max. water temperature: 45° C
max. water pressure: 10 bar/145 psi
The required amount of water for the 8 shower jets (1) attached
to the support frame can be regulated via the ball valve (2). The
shower jets can be swivelled within the plastic holder ring.
Turn the grey securing ring counter-clockwise in order to change
the shower curtain. Remove the shower nozzle together with the
O-ring seal and replace the shower curtain by separating the Velcro and pile fabric connection on the vertical support hose and
unhooking the eyelets (5) on the insertion basin. The assembly
happens in reversed order.
There is a quick-snap coupling in the upper area of the shower hood which additionally enables connection of a hand wash
brush (4). For this purpose push the connecting nipple into the
self-locking quick-snap coupling (3), until it locks perceptible.
3.4 Deation and Packing
The deation of the support frame happens over the ination
connection. To deate the tent, close the air source (compressed
air cylinder, etc.) and disconnect the pressure reducer or the lling
hose of the blower. The deation valve is opened by pressing-in
and turning the pin (1) counter clockwise.

Fold the shower in the way, that the air can escape (Folding to the
direction of the ination connection).
Any remaining air can be removed with a vacuum adaptor (Item
No.: 1700018300) in combination with an construction-site compressor adaptor (Item No.: 1600012000).

Connect the construction-site compressor adaptor (1) to the coupling of the vacuum adaptor (2) and turn it interlocking. Then
tighten the screwable part of t the vacuum adaptor.

Now connect the constructionsite compressor adaptor to the support frame. Attach the quick-action coupling (3) to the connection
hose of the pressure regulator and open the hand valve of the
pressure regulator slowly.
It is also possible to deate the support frame with a blower with
deate function. Follow the operating instructions of the blower.
After deation and before packing, the
valve must be unlocked again in order to
guarantee perfect ination when it is next
used!
4. Care and Maintenance
The Decon Showers 0.3 bar and its equipment is to be cleaned
after use. Cleaning of the Decon Showers is normally carried out
with warm water with a soap solution and then dried at room
temperature. Cleaning with high pressure hot water devices must
not be carried out under any circumstances. If necessary, contaminated showers are to be decontaminated with suitable disinfection agents. DIN 7716 is to be observed when storing for long
periods of time
5. Test
The ination ttings and the Decon Showers 0.3 bar are to be checked for a perfect and orderly condition each time before and after use:
9 The parts of the stiening frame are free of damage, e.g. tears,
cuts, piercings, splits, hard or soft areas caused by chemical or
thermal eects.
9 The PVC foldable container is free of damage, e.g. tears, cuts,
piercings, splits, hard or soft areas caused by chemical or thermal eects.
9 Visual and operational check of the ination connection and
the blower including the accessories.
