  Manual No. 04143   

3.1.7 

The preceding precautions also apply to portable 

compressors. In addition, in the case of engine-driven 
compressors, precautions must be taken to prevent 
engine exhaust gases from entering the air intake of the 
compressor. Compressor engine exhaust should be piped 
to a location safely downwind from the compressor air 
intake. Compressors vary in design and operation; 
therefore, it is important that users carefully read the 
manufacturer's operation and maintenance instructions 
before making modifications. 
 

3.1.8 

It is the owner's and user's responsibility to make 

sure the air supply is safe to breathe. The air supply 
includes the compressor, carbon monoxide alarms, and 
shutdown devices. An overheated compressor, or one that 
is in poor mechanical condition, may produce carbon 
monoxide. A carbon monoxide removal or conversion 
system may also be used to ensure breathing-air quality. 
The maximum allowable level of carbon monoxide in 
Grade D breathing air is 10 ppm (parts per million). 

 
3.2 

Air Pressure (Outlet Pressure) 

 

3.2.1

 

Outlet pressure must be set to the pressure for 

which the respirator(s) is designed. Refer to the 
respirator owner’s manual to find the approved pressure 
setting. All respirators connected to the filter must be 
approved to operate within the same pressure range. 
 

 

 WARNING 

Failure to maintain the minimum pressure at the 
CPF filter outlet (point of attachment) may 
reduce air flow below the minimum flow 
required by OSHA. Reduced air flow may result 
in ingress of hazardous toxic dust, subjecting 
the user to immediate health and life 
threatening poisoning and subsequent 
respiratory disease. 

 
 

 
4.0 SETUP 
 
NOTE: The filter must be setup and placed in an area 
that permits monitoring of the outlet pressure, 
access to the drain, and removal of the cap for filter 
cartridge replacement. 

 

4.1 Breathing-Air 

Connections

 

 

4.1.1 

Filters can be configured for either left or right 

hand inlet. If it is more convenient to have the air inlet on 
the opposite side, swap the plug and inlet connector. 
This is usually required only with fixed installations. 

 

4.1.2

 The following instructions explain air 

connections using hose as the air supply line; hard 
piping may be used in place of hose. If the filter is hard-
piped, place an isolation valve in the piping to enable 
depressurization for service. 
 

4.1.3

 

Connect an air fitting that is compatible with the 

air supply hose, from an air source that meets OSHA 
requirements for respirable air, to either of the inlet ports 
on the side of the filter. The port’s thread size is 1" NPT. 
 

4.1.4

  Connect a 3/4" ID or larger air hose, from a 

respirable air source to the inlet fitting. Maximum inlet 
pressure is 150 psi. 

 

 DANGER 

Do not connect the CPF Filter to bottled air or 
any other air source that does not have a 
pressure-reducing valve that lowers pressure to 
maximum of 150 psi. Failure to comply with this 
warning will cause the CPF filter to explode 
under the high pressure of bottled air, and 
could cause severe injury or death. 

 

 

 
5.0 ADJUSTMENTS 

 

5.1 Outlet 

Pressure

 

 

5.1.1

 

Outlet pressure must be set to the pressure for 

which the respirator(s) is approved. The respirator’s 
approved pressure may be found in the respirator’s 
owner’s manual. All respirators connected to a filter must 
be approved to operate within the same pressure range. 
 

5.1.2

  Adjust pressure with respirators attached and 

prior to donning the respirator. 
 

5.1.3 

To adjust pressure: pull the regulator knob out, 

and turn clockwise to increase pressure or counter-
clockwise to decrease. Pressure will register on the 
gauge

Once operating pressure is set, push the knob in 

to lock. 

 

 
6.0 MAINTENANCE 

 

6.1 Draining 

 

6.1.1

  Drain moisture from the filter every four hours. 

More frequent draining may be required in humid 
environments. The drain petcock is located on the 
bottom of the filter body.
