FILTERS
High Efficiency (HE) Filter
Use the 03-892 HE filter in atmospheres that contain only solid or liquid particulates, such as
dusts, mists, or fumes.
The HE filter does not remove organic vapors or acid gases.
Before unpacking the 03-892 HE filter, make sure that the sealed plastic packaging is still intact.
Once the seal is broken the filter is exposed to the environment and may become contaminated.
Before inserting the filter make sure that the following points are checked:
1.
Check the PAPR is turned off and the fan is not running before opening the door of the unit.
2.
Inspect the filter for tears or any sign of damage to the filter media.
3.
Inspect the seal on the back side of the filter is clean and free of cuts or distortions.
Some substances, such as carbon monoxide, can not be filtered out with a PAPR and may require
supplied air or SCBA.
Service Life of HE Filter, Prefilter and Spark Arrestor
The HE filter should be replaced if the airflow alarm is activated, or the flow indicator reading
falls below the 6cfm (170 slpm) minimum airflow. The HE filter should also be replaced if there is
damage to the filter media, such as a tear or puncture, etc., or the filter media becomes wet. The
PX5
®
is approved to only be used with genuine RPB
®
filters and cartridges.
The Prefilter is recommended to be replaced when it is dirty or damaged or at the same time
as the HE Filter. The Spark Arrestor should be replaced if it becomes damaged or clogged with
debris.
