CLEANING AND DISINFECTING
DO NOT use alcohol as a germicide because it may
deteriorate rubber parts.
Depending on the cleaning policy adopted, either a desig-
nated person or the user should clean the respirator after
each use. Non-sudsing Confidence Plus
® Cleaning
Solution (P/N 10009971) from MSA is recommended. It is
a germicidal cleaner that cleans and disinfects in one
operation. It retains its germicidal efficiency in hard water
to inhibit the growth of bacteria. It will not deteriorate rub-
ber, plastic, glass, or metal parts. Refer to the label for
use instructions. A solution as effective as Confidence
Plus Cleaning Solution and compatible with MSA respira-
tor components may be substituted. ANSI suggests that
users be trained in the cleaning procedure.
Be careful not to inhale or touch the contaminant in
handling the respirator or its parts. If necessary, use
equipment disposal to protect you from the specific
contaminant. Failure to follow this warning can result
in serious personal injury or death.
1. Preparing Solution
a. Follow the instructions with the Confidence Plus
Cleaning Solution.
b. If the Confidence Plus Cleaning Solution is not
used, wash in a mild cleaning solution, rinse thor-
oughly, and submerge in a germicide solution for
the manufacturer's recommended time.
2. Clean and Disinfect the Facepiece
a. Remove the canister/cartridge(s) from the face-
piece.
b. Thoroughly wash the facepiece (and nose cup) in
the cleaning solution. A soft brush or sponge can
be used to clean the soiled facepiece. Be sure to
include cleaning the exhalation valve and seat.
c. Rinse the facepiece and components in clean,
warm (110°F), water (preferably running and
drained).
If not rinsed thoroughly, cleaning agent residue may
irritate the wearer's skin.
d. Allow the facepiece to air dry, face up. Do not dry
the parts by placing them near a heater or in direct
sunlight. The rubber will deteriorate.
e. Operate the exhalation valve by hand to be sure it
works properly.
f. Harness (straps and buckles)
g. The facepiece and components should be air-dried
or hand-dried with a clean lint-free cloth.
DO NOT force-dry the parts by placing them in a
heater or in direct sunlight. The rubber will deteriorate.
When facepiece is thoroughly dried, store the face-
piece in the clam shell in which it was shipped.
