1. INTRODUCTION
This respiratory system is intended to be used to provide protection when the user works
in a contaminated environment. The equipment is able to filter the contaminated air via
the filter built in to the blower and then supply fresh air from breathing tube to the
respirator hood so that the user can continuously work in a contaminated environment.
It is a combined face and breathing protection device for increased safety and comfort
whilst performing tasks. Please read these instructions carefully before unpacking.
2. APPROVALS
The system complies with the requirements of
PPE Regulation 2016/425 and European
Standard EN 12941: 1998+A2:2008 class TH3 P R S L. The Respiratory System is
designed to provide a supply of filtered air via a breathing tube to a fabric headpiece. The
equipment can be used in an environment that requires a class TH3P breathing
protection device. It protects against particulate contamination.
All components used in the Respiratory System must be manufacturer approved parts,
and must be used in accordance with the instructions in this manual.

The approval is not valid if the product is incorrectly used together
with non-approved parts or components.
2. Only the particle filter and pre-filter can be used together with
this system. Filters from other manufacturers should not be used.
3.WARNING AND LIMITATIONS TO USE
Before each use, inspect the Respirator System for damage and verify it operates
properly. Before using the Respirator System, test air flow to verify it is providing an
adequate volume of air.
Always wear the Respirator System and do not remove the hood or turn off the air filter
unit until outside the contaminated area, otherwise, there is a risk of high concentration
of CO
2
and reduced oxygen level in the hood, and little to no protection is given.
If you are not sure about the concentration of pollution, or about equipment performance,
ask the company safety officer.
