2.2 Area of application
Contaminated extinguishing water, chemicals, oil and dirty water
must be quickly collected and temporarily stored in cases of re,
oods, storms, pipe bursts and accidents.
To do this, the Vetter Pneumatic Hazmat Container is now available.
2.3 Safety instructions
All relevant national regulations regarding work safety and accident prevention are to be just as equally observed as those regulations generally recognized in the engineering eld. Work protection clothing is to be worn during operational conditions.

2.4 Correct handling and usage
The Pneumatic Hazmat Container PAB is only allowed to be used
with compressed air. Only original Vetter ination ttings are to be
used in order to avoid over-ination of the Hazmat Container.
3. Preparing the product for use
3.1 Preparations for operation
Only perfectly working Hazmat Containers are to be used having
original Vetter ination ttings. Before being used, the chemical
resistance of the PVC foldable container is to be tested against the
liquid or substance to be collected.
4. Operating instructions
Open the packing cover. Lay out the Pneumatic Hazmat Contai-

ner at the required location. The ground area must be free of any
sharp-edged or pointed objects!
4.1 Operation with compressed air
4
6
7
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/145 psi 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 Pneumatic Hazmat Container
during the ination process. Close the hand valve when the operating pressure of 0.5 bar/7.25 psi is reached.
The Vetter Pneumatic Hazmat Container is now operati-
onal.
Do not inate outer frame! The valve is only
for air compensation when the container
is upright or folded.

4.2 Pumping o the collected uid
To pump o the collected uid, use a commercially available immersion pump (comply with the resistance), e.g. item no.:
1520041600 dewatering pump. For complete vacuum withdrawal, if necessary the suction nozzle (Item no.: 1700014701) can be
used in combination with a Vetter aspirator.

4.3 Deation
The deation of the Pneumatic Hazmat Container happens over
the ination connection. To deate the Pneumatic Hazmat Container, close the compressed air cylinder and disconnect the pressure
reducer. Screw the cap o of the lling connection in the counterclockwise direction. The deation valve is opened by pressing-in
and turning the pin (1) counter clockwise.
1
Pin before locking Pressing-in + turning Valve open
Fold the Pneumatic Hazmat Container s 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).
1
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 pneumatic stiening frame. Attach the quick-action coupling (3) to the connection hose of the pressure regulator (pressure approx. 6 bar/87 psi)
and open the hand valve of the pressure regulator slowly. Using
the vacuum adapter the air is sucked out of the Hazmat container
which can then be quickly packed without diculty.

After deation and before packing, the valve
must be unlocked again in order to guarantee
perfect ination when it is next used!
4.4 Care and Maintenance
The Hazmat Container and its ttings are to be cleaned after use.
Cleaning of the Hazmat Container is normally made using warm
water together with a soap solution and dried at room temperature. DIN 7716 is to be observed when storing for long periods of
time.

5. Inspection
The ination ttings and the Hazmat Container are to be checked
for a perfect and orderly condition each time before and after
use:
9 The stiening frame is free of damage, e.g. tears, cuts, pier-
cings, 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 pressure regulator
6. Taking the product out of operation
In case the Pneumatic Hazmat Containers are taken out of operation then this must be disposed of as special waste. If required,
the manufacturer can supply you with more detailed information
regarding this.
