1. Introduction
CleanAIR® Pressure systems are systems of
continuous flow compressed air line breathing
apparatus. The system is based on the principle of
overpressure of filtered air in the breathing zone.
The air is taken from the source of compressed air
(compressor) delivered to CA Pressure Condi-
tioner where the solid particles, oil mists and
unpleasant odours are removed. Then is the air delive-
red to CA Pressure/CA Pressure Flow Master, which
allows to regulate the airflow delivered through the
hose into a protective mask or hood. The overpressure
in the breathing zone prevents from entering of con-
taminants. This mild overpressure at the same time
ensures the wearer’s comfort, even with long-term
use, as the wearer does not have to struggle in their
breathing to overcome the resistance of the filter.
The air supplied from the compressor directly
(without use of CAP Conditioner filter) to CA Pressu-
re (Flow Master) must be hygienically clean and must
comply with the EN 12021 standard. If the air does not
comply with this requirement, install the CA Pressure
Conditioner filtration unit before the CA Pressure unit/
CAP Flow Master!
Apart from CA Pressure (CAP), CleanAIR® Pressure
Flow Master (CAP FM) is equipped with a pressure
gauge for the current check of the input pressure and
with warning whistle, which will warn the user in the
case of an inlet pressure decreases below the bottom
limit of operation pressure.
The air at the outlet of CA Pressure Conditioner
complies with EN 12021 if it is used within the range
of temperatures stated in Chapter 10 and the air from
the compressor complies with the requirements of
Chapter 1.1. CA Pressure Conditioner removes oil mist,
smells and flavours. There can be two users connec-
ted to the filtration station (CAP Conditioner).
CAP Conditioner does not remove carbon monoxide
(CO) and carbon dioxide (CO
2
) from the air!!!
1.1. Requirements for compressed air supplied
from the compressor
• CA Pressure Conditioner can only be connected to
compressor which supplies air at an oxygen con-
centration of 20 % to 22 % vol. The carbon dioxide
concentration must not exceed 500 ppm and the
carbon monoxide concentration must not exceed
15 ppm.
• The maximum concentration of water in the air
may be 50 mg/m³ at the rated pressure of 1 to
20 MPa. The humidity of the supplied air must be
controlled to prevent the unit from freezing.
2. Instructions for Use
Read this manual carefully and follow its instructions!!!
• The user must fully understand the instructions.
• During an extreme work load, the pressure in the
hood may reach negative values and the user may
feel air deficiency. In such case the protection of
air passages is reduced.
• The use of oxygen-enriched air and oxygen is
forbidden in the CleanAIR® system due to the risk
of explosion.
• The system may only be used in environ-
ments with a small probability of damage of the
supply hose and where the user’s movement is not
limited.
• If, apart from CleanAIR®, another accessory (e.g.
a spray gun) is connected to the compressed air
supply, the user must make sure that a sufficient
air flow to the hood is secured even at the maxi-
mum air consumption by this accessory.
• If the unit is used in environments with high tem-
peratures, the supply hose must be resistant to
such effects.
• It is forbidden to use the unit in explosive
enviroments.
• Before every use of the unit, check that the air
flow is higher than the minimum value specified in
the technical parameters.
• If the unit stops supplying air for any reason, the
user must leave the contaminated area immedia-
tely.
• The unit, in a combination with a welding helmet
