Chlorinated Water Immersion
Immersion of the LP/SV in chlorinated water is not recommended. If the LP/SV is immersed in
chlorinated water, use the same washing procedure as for salt water immediately following
immersion.
4.4
SERVICE LIFE
The LP/SV’s service life is determined on condition rather than age. LP/SV’s may remain in
service if properly maintained and all test and inspection results are satisfactory.
4.5
WORK AREA
The work area where inspection and maintenance of the LP/SV is performed should be
smooth and flat, where the LP/SV will not snag, tear or otherwise be punctured or damaged
and should also be cleared of all non-essential equipment and materials.
The working surface should be free of harmful contaminants such as oil, grease, acids or
solvents. Work areas, subject to wide temperature variations, should be avoided.
4.6
STORAGE
The life preservers should be stored in the following manner:
a. They are to be stored in a cool, dry area where an even temperature can be maintained.
b. They are not to be exposed to sunlight, ozone gas, or ultra violet rays, and must be kept
free from petroleum products, acids or other damaging contaminants.
