7.2 Replacement
Replacing the filter
The installed filter has a limited service life based on working conditions. When the filter mark on
the screen flashes and the alarm rings, filter should be replaced. If the filter is installed but unused,
it has a limited service life of 3 years.
A) Remove the filter cover by pressing in the latch of the filter cover (figure 19)
B)Remove the used filter by lifting it out from the filter cover.
C)Install a new filter in the filter cover. (NOTE: Unauthorized filter will void the warranty and expose
the user to the risk of personal injury. Do not confuse the markings on a filter relating to any standard
other than Australian/New Zealand standard AS/NZS 1716:2012 with the classification PAPR-P2 of
P1004 device when used with this filter.)
D)Change the pre-filter if needed.
E)If necessary, clean or change the part arrestor (metal net) on the base of the filter cover.
F)Put back the filter cover, with the filter installed, by hooking the cover on the left side of the P1004
unit, and pressing the cover down so that the latch engages correctly.
WARNING: Check the expiry date of the unopened filter.
DO NOT use it if it’s expired.
Only the P1004 particle filter, gas filter and pre-filter can be used together with this
system. Filters from other manufacturers should under no circumstances be used.

The PAPR unit must be checked regularly and must be changed if it is damaged or caused leakage.
The filter must be changed if it is broken, or it is blocked and does not give enough airflow.
The breathing tube must be changed if it is broken or has a crevasse.
The battery must be charged when the low battery alarm rings.
Use a soft cloth to wipe the external surfaces. Don’t use water!
The filter should be replaced together with the pre-filter.
8.2: Storage
The PAPR must be stored in a dry, clean area, in the temperature range of -10ºC to +55ºC and
