Introduction
CleanAIR® Basic EVO is a personal respiratory protection system based on overpressure of filtered air in the
breathing zone. The powered air purifying respirator (hereinafter referred to as the "PAPR") sucks in air from the
surrounding environment and supplies it to the protection hood. The resulting overpressure prevents contami-
nants from passing into the breathing zone. At the same time the light overpressure ensures high user comfort
even when worn for a long time, because there is no need to overcome any breathing resistance of the filter. The
system keeps the selected airflow regardless of the filter clogging or the degree of battery charge.
To ensure efficient protection, it is necessary to choose a suitable combination of PAPR unit and protective head-
top. It is also important to use the original filters. The CleanAIR® Basic EVO meets the requirements of the EN 12941.
It provides protection against solid and liquid particles.

Instructions for use
Carefully read and follow the instructions stated in this user manual. The user must know exactly how to use the
protective equipment correctly.
•
If, for any reason, the PAPR unit stops working, the user must leave the contaminated environment immediately.
•
If used with the hood when the unit is switched off, the respiratory protection is low or none. In that case there
is a risk of rapid increase of carbon dioxide concentration and decrease of oxygen concentration. The situation
when the unit is switched off when used with the hood is abnormal.
•
CleanAIR® Basic EVO must not be used when the amount of incoming air is insufficient.
•
CleanAIR® Basic EVO must not be used in areas where oxygen concentration is below 17%.
•
CleanAIR® Basic EVO must not be used in areas where the user has no knowledge about the nature of con-
tamination or its concentration.
•
CleanAIR® Basic EVO must not be used in areas where there is a risk of explosion.
•
CleanAIR® Basic EVO must not be used in confined spaces, such as closed tanks, tunnels, sewers, etc.
•
Before each use, check the airflow with the enclosed flow indicator. The flow rate is insufficient if the top edge
of the cone is in the red zone (see Section 4.2 "Airflow test").
•
Worn headtops must fit tightly onto face to ensure declared level of protection for the wearer. If a beard or
long hair interferes with the sealing line, this may negatively affect the protection provided by the system.
•
The unit provides protection against solid and liquid aerosols.
•
The unit does not protect the user against gases.
•
Filters must not be attached directly to the hood.
•
Use only original CleanAIR® filters designed for your CleanAIR® Basic EVO PAPR unit.
•
Always replace the filter if you notice a change in the smell of the air coming out of the unit.
•
CleanAIR® Basic EVO does not remove carbon monoxide (CO) or carbon dioxide (CO
•
Always follow your local regulations for using PAPR units, filters and PPE.
If any rule or instruction stated in this manual is not observed, the warranty becomes null and void!
