Consequences for getting this wrong can be high.\n\nOur compressor and fill tanks are located in the apparatus bay at Station 1.\n\nIn general, we consider bottles in need of refill any time we see them below 4000 psi. \n\n===Documentation===\nIt's crucial that we document every bottle we fill. Some of the many reasons:\n*If we ever find that the compressor was malfunctioning and putting something undesirable in the air during some period of time (or if air quality was just really bad one day), we need to know which bottles to take out of service until we can refill them with air we actually want to breathe. (We test the air quality periodically to ensure we're filling bottles with breathable air.)\n\n*It forces us to check that the bottle is within its hydro test validity \u2013 a hydro test is only good for five years, after which we '''do not fill the bottle until it can be hydro tested again'''. This is a safety issue.\nTo document the bottles you're filling, you'll need:\n*the date\n\n*the bottle number (this is the big ol' MEFD number on the side of the bottle, usually three digits)\n\n*the bottle brand \u2013 most will be Luxfer, but not all (RIT bottles are different, possibly?)\n\n*manufacture date \u2013 printed right near the bottle brand, I believe\n\n*last hydro test date \u2013 if I'm remembering right, this will be in small font on an official-looking sticker. ''MUST'' be within the last five years.\n\n*department \u2013 \"MEFD\" for our bottles, but list other departments if we're filling up for others as part of a large training or incident.\nAfter you fill, you'll also list the pressure you filled to and your name.\n===Getting started===\n\n# Do a quick inspection of the bottle for dings, flaking fiberglass, or other issues. Don't fill bottles you don't 100% trust.\n# Fill in the start of our documentation sheet for the bottle by finding the info listed above.\n# Push down on the safety bar and open the filling compartment.\n# Put the bottle into the obvious slot with the connections and gauge upward.\n# Connect the fill line and ensure it's actually attached. Same connection as when you're replacing the bottle on a pack, so just knock it into place and confirm it's on.\n#*For RIT bottles, see notes below on the necessary adapter.\n# Ensure the line bleed valve is closed! Otherwise you'll be pumping air out into the hall instead of into the bottle.\n# Once the bleed valve is closed, fully open the bottle valve. You'll hear a gentle hiss as the pressure in the fill line increases to equalize with the tank.\n# Close the filling compartment and jiggle to ensure it's locked shut.\n\n===== Connecting a RIT bottle =====\n[[File:RIT fill adapter.jpg|thumb|200x200px|RIT fill adapter]]\nOur RIT bottles have a screw-on attachment rather than the quick-disconnect attachment on our pack bottles. You'll need an adapter, which should live near the compressor somewhere. See the image at right for what it looks like. It is often found on the wood bench or in a small box on that bench to the right of the fill station. The fill adapter screws on to the RIT bottle. Give it a ''very'' gentle tighten with a 15/16\" wrench, and then use the quick connect attached to the fill station. Remember to disconnect the adapter afterward, or you'll have trouble setting up the RIT pack!\n\nNote that this adapter is different from the inverse adapter we use to fill our pack cylinders from threaded fill stations like those used by Anacortes. ''That'' adapter lives in the SCBA battery pack on 11-12 so that it's available for our use on long calls.\n[[File:RIT fill adapter location.jpg|thumb|200x200px|Where to find the RIT adapter]]\n\n===Preparing to fill===\n\n# Ensure all the storage tanks' connections to the fill station are open.\n# Set the fill station to fill from storage (or from compressor if the highest-pressure storage bank is filled to less than 4500 psi).\n# Open the lowest-pressure storage bank (conventionally, we use Bank #1 first, then #2, and so on) to give yourself some inlet pressure. To do so, turn the knob under the desired bank all the way to the left, then back off a quarter turn. You should see the inlet pressure gauge at bottom left equalize with the open bank.\n# Set the desired fill pressure (4500 psi unless otherwise noted) by adjusting the regulator knob (between inlet + fill pressure gauges). Note that if the set fill pressure is lower than the inlet pressure, there will be a loud hiss as the fill station bleeds off excess air.\n\n===Fill===\nIn general, we'll fill from the storage tanks until we need to top them off with the compressor. The compressor should be set to turn on when any of the banks drop below a certain pressure.\n====From storage tanks====\n\n# You should already have one storage tank valve open.\n# Open the fill valve for the bottle(s) you want to fill. Do so slowly! Filling too fast results in really warm bottles, which will require additional top-off later once they've cooled and the pressure has dropped. Some departments also say that filling too fast can lead to bottle failure, so let's definitely avoid that. Ideal fill rates seem to be 200-400 psi per minute.\n# If the lowest-pressure storage tank equalizes with the bottles you're filling below 4500 psi, you'll need to shift to the next storage tank. To do so:\n## Turn off the fill valve for your bottle(s). This will allow you to adjust the fill rate once the higher-pressure storage tank is opened \u2013 otherwise you might hot fill your bottles without meaning to.\n## Turn off the storage tank you're currently filling from.\n## Open the next-lowest-pressure storage tank. (As before, open all the way, then back off a quarter turn.)\n## Open the fill valve for your bottle(s), again aiming for 200-400 psi per minute.\n\nFor an explanation of why we start with the lowest-pressure storage tank, see the video below for a discussion of cascade fill systems. It's really quite clever.\n====From compressor====\nNOTE: If the compressor kicks on, you and everyone in earshot will need ear protection.\n\nIf the lowest-pressure storage tank ''still'' isn't enough to get your bottles up to 4500 psi, it's time to switch over to the compressor. \n===Wrap up the process===\n\n# Turn off the fill knobs (bottom right) to cut off additional air to the bottles you're filling.\n# Turn off the bank you're currently filling from.\n# Open the filling compartment to reveal your newly-filled bottles.\n# Close the main valve on the newly-filled bottles (the one you use to open/close the bottle when it's on your pack).\n# Bleed off excess pressure in the fill lines using the bleeder valves. As a courtesy to the next person filling bottles, close the valves when you've finished (just finger tight, no need to torque down too much). Ensure nobody has their face too close to the bleeder valve as there will be very high-pressure air whooshing out.\n# Disconnect the bottles. If you've filled fast, be careful as the bottle will be warm.\n# Finish documenting the bottles you've filled by entering the pressure you filled 'em to and your name.\n\n== Other resources ==\n*[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zJfOjqy5tY Decent explanation of how a cascade filling system works (SCUBA, but same idea as SCBA)]\n\n*To do: find and link manual for the compressor (CFS 5.5)"

Knowing the system helps you know which resources are coming to a scene and who is talking.\n\nThe first one or two digits (before the dash) identify the department. The next digit identifies the station. The last digit identifies the type.\n\n== Examples ==\n11-24: Wildland engine at Station 2 from Mt Erie (District 11).\n\n29-11: Structure engine at Station 1 from Anacortes (29).\n\n3-16: Water tender at Station 1 from Conway (3)\n\n== Departments ==\nEach fire district and department in the county has a number. For example:\n\n* Mt Erie: 11\n* Summit Park/Hope Island: 13\n* Anacortes: 29\n* Guemes Island: 17\n* La Conner: 27\n\n== Apparatus ==\nEach apparatus type is given a number.\n{| class=\"wikitable\"\n|-\n! Number !! Type\n|-\n| 1, 2, 3|| Structure Engines\n|-\n| 4|| Wildland Engine\n|-\n| 5|| Aerial/Ladder Truck\n|-\n| 6|| Water Tender\n|-\n| 7|| Rescue\n|-\n| 8|| Battalion, Utility\n|-\n| 9|| Ambulance\n|}\n\n== Personnel ==\nOfficers are also given numbers. At MEFD we use the following:\n\n* 11-01: Chief\n* 11-02: Assistant Chief\n* 11-03, 11-04, 11-05, 11-06, 11-08: Lieutenants\n* 11-07: Number retired in memory of Terry Bowen\n\nThe system allows for additional (or all) personnel to have a number. We don't use this at MEFD, but some departments do.\n\nIn this case you will here something like:\n\n17-1-36\n\nThis would be the #36 (whomever that may be) from Station 1 in Guemes.\n\n'''Note:''' District 5 uses this system and has the habit of calling themselves fifty-one instead of five one. There is no district 51, this is someone from District 5, station 1.\n\n== Exceptions ==\nMedic units have their own numbering. For example the medic units in Anacortes are Med-12, Med-14, Med-16, and Med-18 (backup).\n\n== Island County ==\nWe mutual aid with Island County units. They have a different system, one used more commonly than ours.\n\nAppearing before the apparatus number will be the actual type of apparatus, ex. engine, ladder, marine, rescue. Following this will be two numbers. First number is Fire District. Second number is Station Number.\n\nFor example:\n\n* Marine 22 - North Whidbey Boat (Station 2)\n* Engine 81 - City of Oak Harbor Engine (Station 1)\n* Tender 54 - Central Whidbey Fire and Rescue Tender (Station 4)\n* Rescue 36 - South Whidbey Fire and EMS Rescue (Station 6)\n\n== Law Enforcement ==\nLaw enforcement uses a different system to identify personnel. Each organization in an area has its own letter. Only the radios belonging to the chief and assistant chief can access law enforcement channels directly, but you may still see or hear personnel numbers, such as 'David5 (or D5) is on scene reporting smoke from chimney'.\n\n* Anacortes PD: D - David.\n* Skagit County Sheriff's Office: U - Uniform\n* Swinomish Police Department - I - Ida"
