The mask M98 has been designed to conform with EN 136/12942 (Europe) and AS/NZS 1716:2003
(Australia/NZ). EC certified (013010 and 013011) by BGIA (Berufsgenossenschaftliches Institut für
Arbeitssicherheit), DE-53754 Sankt Augustin, Germany, ID: 0121. Licence 0858
by SAI Global,
Australia.
1. General
The mask M98 is designed to protect the respiratory system and face against hazardous gases and
particles.
Use as filter mask together with a Pro2000 filter (gas, particle or combined filters). The filters are
thread filters conforming to the European standard EN 148-1.
The filter is selected according to the type of hazard present.
The M98 Small is designed for persons with a small face.
2. Limitations of use
2.1
The filtering device must not be used if the environment and contamination is unknown. In
case of doubt, isolating respirators (air supply) which function independently of the atmosphere
must be used.
2.2
The filtering device must not be used in confined spaces (e.g. cisterns, tanks) because of the
risk of oxygen deficiency or presence of heavy oxygen-displacing gases (e.g. carbon dioxide).
2.3
The filtering device may be used only if the oxygen content of the air is 18
–
23 vol.%.
2.4
Gas filters do not protect against particles. Similarly, particle filters do not provide protection
against gases or vapours. In case of doubt, use combined filters.
2.5
Normal filtering devices do not protect against certain gases such as CO (carbon monoxide),
CO
2
(carbon dioxide) and N
2
(nitrogen).
2.6
Particle filters are only allowed for single use if they are applied against radioactive agents or
micro-organisms (virus, bacteria, fungi and spores).
2.7
It is likely that adequate protection cannot be guaranteed if the
user’s beard, hair, spectacle
frames or clothing intrude into the faceseal. With the M98 one can use special spectacles (see
012790 spectacle frame).
2.8
When a breathing protector is used in explosive atmospheres, please follow the instructions
given for such areas.
2.9
Gas filters shall be replaced when the user begins to sense odour, taste or irritation. Filters
used against detrimental gases that do not display any significant indications, require special
regulations for the duration of use and correct usage.
Particle filters must be replaced at the latest when breathing resistance becomes too high.
2.10
The weight of filter used with a full face mask shall not exceed 500 g. The M98 is used with
one filter only (the other opening on the mask is blocked by the manufacturer).
