SEA LV2 Technical Maintenance Manual
Filling the SEA with the MRS III Mobile
Rell Station
The MRS III is a self-contained Mobile Rell Station with an
onboard supply of approved breathing air pressurized up to 4500
psi. The MRS III is designed to ll up to two (2) Aqua Lung SEA
(Survival Egress Air) units simultaneously to the operating pres-
sure of 3000 psi. The following instructions are the same for lling
one unit or two.
1. Verify that both panel mounted ll valves on the MRS III
are closed (clockwise).
2. Open the valves on the MRS III supply cylinders and
verify that the SUPPLY Pressure Gauge on the panel reads
between 3000 and 4500 psi.
3. Verify that the REGULATED Pressure Gauge on the
MRS III panel reads 3000 psi.
4. Remove the ll port plug from the SEA unit and store the
plug in the mounted retainer located on each MRS III. Verify
that the SEA ll port is clean and dry, and place the SEA in
the blast tube.
5. Install the MRS III ll hose connector into the SEA ll port
by rotating the knob clockwise until the o-ring is fully seated.
DO NOT USE A WRENCH OR PLIERS TO TIGHTEN. If the
tting leaks during lling, the connector threads and o-ring
must be inspected for damage. Replace the damaged parts
as needed.
6. Slowly open the MRS III panel mounted ll valve (coun-
terclockwise) that corresponds to the ll hose being used.
There is no need to open any valve on the SEA unit.
7. Slowly ll the SEA at a rate not to exceed 500 psi per
minute, to the maximum of 3000 psi.
NOTE: If the SEA cylinder becomes excessively
warm to the touch while lling, allow additional lling
time for the unit to cool before removing the SEA unit.
8. When the SEA has cooled and is full, close the MRS III
panel mounted ll valve.
9. Open the bleeder valve knob on the MRS III ll hose con-
nector and vent the pressure from the ll hose.
10. Verify that the small pressure indicator on the SEA indi-
cates zero pressure.
11. Disconnect the MRS III ll hose connector from the SEA
by rotating the connector knob counterclockwise.
12. Replace the port plug into the ll port of the SEA unit and
hand tighten.
13. When all lling operations are complete, close the valves
on the MRS III supply cylinders. Firmly grasp one of the MRS
III ll hose connectors, point in a safe direction, and bleed
any remaining pressure from the system by slowly opening
the corresponding panel mounted ll valve for that hose.
14. Close both panel mounted ll valves and both bleeder
valve knobs on the MRS III.
15. Attach the ll connectors to the provided mounting brack-
ets, close and securely latch the MRS III cover.
Second Stage Reassembly
1. Install a new, unlubricated exhaust valve (64) by insert-
ing the stem of the exhaust valve through the center hole of
the exhaust port. Pull the stem all the way through until the
mushroom plug pops through the hole and keeps the valve
securely in place. Examine the ap of the exhaust valve
to make sure it is laying at and is not distorted or folded
under. Using a pair of small wire cutters, snip the stem of the
exhaust valve so it is only about 1/4" long.
2. Using your ngers, screw the exhaust cover (65) onto the
box bottom (63) until hand tight.
3. Press a new LP seat (51) into the end of the poppet (50)
until it is ush and seated evenly. Ensure the dimpled side is
toward the poppet.

4. Place the poppet bearing (48), rounded side rst, onto the
stem of the poppet (50). Using the poppet as an installation
tool, insert the bearing into the barrel of the valve body (47).
Align the squared side of the poppet bearing with the square
hole in the valve body and press it into place. Remove the
poppet.
