DESCRIPTION
The SCOTT PROFLOW FH22 Hood affords limited protection from contami-
nation caused by some liquid splashes or sprays while providing the
respiratory protection of filtered air from a SCOTT PROFLOW 3 Powered Air
Purifying Respirator (PAPR). The PROFLOW FH22 Hood consists of a poly-
ester coated synthetic fabric hood with inner and outer aprons, an integral
face shield, an adjustable head band, an integral exhalation port, and ac-
cess for attachment of the breathing tube for a PROFLOW 3 PAPR. An
optional Shroud to cover the Breathing Tube is available. This disposable
Hood and Shroud is intended for a SINGLE USE ONLY.
The PROFLOW FH22 Hood is unsuitable for exposure to certain chemicals or
for use in certain conditions. See the CHOOSING THE APPROPRIATE EQUIP-
MENT section of this instruction for details.
The PROFLOW FH22 Hood is available in a one-size to fit most as P/N
200676-01. This same hood is available in packaged quantities under the P/N
200676-XX where -XX denotes the quantity as packaged. The Breathing Tube,
P/N 31001207, is specially designed to connect to his hood. To facilitate de-
contamination of the breathing hose, an optional Hose Shroud to cover the
Breathing Tube, P/N 200677-01, is available, also sold in packaged quantities
where -XX denotes the quantity as packaged.
The PROFLOW FH22 Hood alone does not provide any protection against a
hazardous atmosphere. The PROFLOW FH22 Hood is part of a complete ap-
proved respirator which also includes, a PROFLOW 3 powered air purifying
respirator, the proper filtration media suitable for the hazardous atmosphere
where the respirator will be used, and the breathing tube to connect the Hood
to the PROFLOW 3 respirator. Refer to the NIOSH Approval Label included
with the PROFLOW 3 respirator for a complete listing of hoods and filters
approved for use with the SCOTT PROFLOW 3 respirator.
When used with a PROFLOW 3 PAPR, contaminated air is drawn through the
filtration elements mounted on the PROFLOW 3 blower unit and flows through
the breathing tube to the respiratory inlet on the back of the Hood. Air entering
the PROFLOW FH22 Hood is directed over the top of the head and down the
inner surface of the visor to prevent misting, then inhaled by the wearer. Ex-
haled air passes out through the integral exhalation opening between the inner
and outer aprons on the front of the PROFLOW FH22 Hood. The PROFLOW
FH22 Hood is intended to be used only with a PROFLOW 3 powered air puri-
fying respirator which can supply filtered breathing air at a rate of greater than
6 cubic feet (170 liters) per minute.
Refer to the user’s instructions provided with the SCOTT PROFLOW 3 Pow-
ered Air Purifying Respirator and to the most recent RESPIRATOR
APPROVAL LABEL for the complete respirator. Additional copies of the RES-
PIRATOR APPROVAL LABEL for the SCOTT PAPR are available from your
SCOTT distributor or by calling SCOTT Health and Safety at 1-800-247-
7257.
