1.1 General information
PLEASE READ AND RETAIN THESE INSTRUCTIONS. IT IS IMPERA-
TIVE THAT THESE INSTRUCTIONS BE OBSERVED AND REFERENCED
WHEN USING THIS RANGE OF PRODUCTS.
For use with the Corpro HM1500 Medi Half Mask only. To ensure the correct
usage of the product please read the HM1500 user instructions in advance
of use.
The F1200 Inhale filter protects the wearer from inhaling potentially harmful
particles, and the F1200 Exhale filter protects others from inhaling potentially
harmful particles exhaled by the wearer of the HM1500 Medi Half mask.
The F1200 filters consist of an inhalation filter (P3 filter type) and Exhalation
(P2 Equilavent filter type), meaning they are a high efficiency product which
are designed to filter particulates specifically. This includes micro-organisms
(such as viruses, bacteria, fungi and spores). The ‘R’ reference in ‘P3 R’
means that the particle filters are suitable for reuse against aerosols. The
F1200 Exhale filter is designed to be used as an accessory. The HM1500
mask is designed to be used with both F1200 Inhale filter and F1200 Exhale
filter.

1.3 Before use
Check: BEFORE EVERY USE THESE CHECKS MUST BE CARRIED OUT.
•
Only use the filters if the packaging is sealed/undamaged before first
use. Damaged or opened packaging will invalidate the expiry date and
may reduce the filters performance.
•
Check the filters are clean and undamaged. Replace any filters that are
damaged.
•
Ensure the filter is within it’s expiry date.
•
Only use the filtering device where the environment, contamination and
concentration is known.
•
Make sure the filters are appropriate for the intended use.
•
When wearing the respirator and filters please perform a fit check prior
to entering any contaminated area. For more information please refer to
the HM1500 user instructions for full details.
1.4 Mounting
•
Ensure you have suitable and adequate filters available for your
intended use. For correct usage the mask must include 1x Inhalation
filter and 1x Exhalation filter.
•
Place the filter onto the mask and rotate clockwise.
•
When correctly seated, and rotated clockwise, the filter will click into
place. The upper edge of the filter should be pointing towards the back
of the mask. Your filters will always lock and seal in the correct position
from any initial orientation.
•
Repeat the process for both filters.
•
Ensure filters are mounted parallel to the sealing surface and make
sure the front-facing filter arrows and mask arrows align. (As seen in
image 2). When viewed from the front the exhalation filter is located on
the right side of the mask, covering the exhalation valve.
