4.1
Maintenance Instructions
To maintain readiness for use, the device must be inspected regularly, checked for
integrity, tightness and, if necessary, cleaned [do not use metal brushes!].
As the device contains a chemical which is sensitive to moisture, it is packed in an
airtight container and is sealed at the factory.
The frequency of inspection depends on the device load [
Æ
chapter 4.4].
For used and/or opened devices, the chemical canister must always be replaced,
reuse is not permitted. Internal checks and any repairs to the devies are to be car-
ried out by the MSA Customer Service or authorized service centers.
