Make sure you are not in an explosive atmosphere
.
To charge the internal battery, turn the respirator upside down, and locate the charging port. See Figure 2.
Lift off the flexible polymer charging port cover. Slide the charger cable connector into the charging port. Ensure
the charger is plugged into a power socket.
Charging is complete when the blower shows three (3) green solid lights. If the third green LED is flashing rapidly
(80% on, 20% off), charging is 95% complete.
When the respirator is fully charged, disconnect the charger cable from the blower charging port. IMPORTANT
Ensure you replace the charging port cover to prevent dirt and contaminants getting into the port.
Note: The CleanSpace Respirator battery can only be charged at temperatures between 0°C and 35°C. Outside this
temperature range no charging will occur.
Do not charge the battery in electro-magnetically noisy environments, such as near welding machines. Doing so may damage
the CleanSpace Respirator electronics.
Do not leave CleanSpace Respirator plugged into its charger for more than one week at a time. Doing so may shorten the
battery life.
LOW BATTERY ALARM
CleanSpace Respirator has a low battery alarm, which is triggered when the battery has approximately 5 minutes life
remaining (3 beeps, repeated every second). You cannot mute the low battery alarm except by connecting CleanSpace
Respirator to its charger or by stopping the motor (doff the respirator and either press the Power Button once or allow
CleanSpace Respirator to detect that there is no breathing and stop) When the battery voltage becomes extremely low, the
motor will stop.
If the battery alarm sounds (3 beeps, repeated every second), leave the contaminated area immediately and re-charge the
battery. Operating the respirator after the low battery 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 or death.
GENERAL BATTERY INFORMATION
CleanSpace Respirator has an internal lithium ion (Li-ion) polymer battery. Lithium ion (Li-ion) batteries have the highest
energy density of all battery types, and are widely used today in portable electronic devices across many different industries.
The commonly available Li-ion polymer batteries are similar to Li-ion batteries, except they are packaged in a soft polymer film
as opposed to the metal case commonly used for Li-ion cells. The soft packaging allows the cells to expand slightly under
extreme heat, making them safer in fault conditions. CleanSpace Respirators use quality Li-ion polymer batteries and are
designed to be viable over a minimum of 500 complete charge and discharge cycles while still maintaining at least 70% of thei r
specified capacity.
RESPIRATOR STORAGE
To maintain the integrity of the internal battery, the respirator must be stored under the following conditions when not being
used:
Long term storage (> 30 days)
30% - 50% RH, 18°C to 28°C
Short term storage (< 30 days)
30% - 50% RH, -10°C to 35°C
The following precautions must be followed during use:
Avoid mechanical shocks or impacts from any sharp or hard objects
Do not use or place CleanSpace Respirator in extreme heat, such as in direct sunlight, near heat sources, etc. The battery
will be damaged if its temperature rises above 100°C. Note: CleanSpace Respirator will stop functioning if its internal
temperature rises above +60°C or falls below -10°C
Do not dispose of CleanSpace Respirator in a fire
Do not disassemble the blower case, there are no user serviceable parts inside
Do not use CleanSpace Respirator if there are any signs of severe mechanical damage
IN THE EXTREMELY RARE CIRCUMSTANCE THAT THE BATTERY IS DAMAGED AND ELECTROLYTE COMES IN CONTACT WITH
EYES, FLUSH WITH WATER IMMEDIATELY AND SEEK URGENT MEDICAL ATTENTION
