18. Fitting & Changing the Filter
Before using the respirator you must ensure that you are using the correct filter type for the environment you are
working in.
WARNING
IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE CORRECT FILTER TYPE IS SELECTED FOR THE CHOSEN
APPLICATION.
Before changing the filter, move out of the contaminated area and remove the respirator. Used filters should be
disposed of responsibly and treated as non-recyclable hazardous* waste (* dependent on the contaminant being
filtered). Filters need to be regularly changed. The frequency of change depends on use and concentration of
contaminants in the atmosphere.
BLOCKED FILTER ALARM
All CleanSpace respirators have a Filter Blocked alarm, which is triggered when the filter requires replacement (2
beeps, repeated every second).
WARNING
If the blocked filter alarm is triggered (2 beeps, repeated every second, red LED flashes), leave the
contaminated area immediately and replace the filter.
Operating the respirator after the blocked filter alarm has sounded can cause the flow to fall
below the manufacturer’s minimum designed flow, which may result in overexposure to contaminants
and lead to sickness.
(Pressing the Power button once will mute the Filter Blocked alarm, allowing you to concentrate while you exit the
contaminated zone. After 15 minutes, if the filter has not been changed, the alarm will resume).
WHEN TO CHANGE THE FILTER
Change the filter

When the Blocked Filter Alarm sounds.

If the Flow Test indicates that the respirator is not able to produce the Minimum Design Flow.

If there is any sign of damage to the filter.

When the filter reaches its expiry date (marked on the filter label).

When the outside of the filter is soiled.

When the filter has been exposed to water or other liquids.

If there is any sign of dust or contaminants on the inside surface of the filter.
A respirator with a clean filter will run for much longer than one with a filter that is dirty. To maximize your work time
between battery charges, it is best to change the filter more often.
CS3027 Exhalation Filter should be changed every time the Head Cover is changed and also

If there is a possibility that it has been splashed with contaminant.

If there is a possibility that it has been exposed to organic solvents (for instance isopropanol, xylene or
toluene) as organic solvents will degrade its performance.

Do not fit a filter if its expiry date (which is marked on the filter) has passed.
CS3039 Steri-Plus Exhalation Filter should be changed

If there is a possibility that it has been splashed with contaminant.

If there is a possibility that it has been exposed to organic solvents (for instance isopropanol, xylene or
toluene) as organic solvents will degrade its performance.

Do not fit a filter if its expiry date (which is marked on the filter packaging) has passed.
CleanSpace filters are NOT reusable and must NOT be cleaned.
WARNING
DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR OR A BRUSH TO CLEAN THE FILTER!
HEPA FILTERS ARE VERY EASILY DAMAGED BY THE USE OF COMPRESSED AIR OR BY
BRUSHING.
Misuse of CleanSpace HALO by cleaning the filter may result in overexposure to contaminants and
lead to sickness.
