Würth 175 Instrucciones De Uso página 11

For your safety
Strictly follow the instructions for use. Any use of the respiratory fil-
ter requires the full understanding and strict observation of these
instructions for use and the instructions for use of the used fa-
cepiece (HM 175 or VM 175). The respiratory filters are only to be
used for the purpose specified here.
Description
These instructions for use refer to pad particle filters, particle filters,
gas filters and combination filters subsumed under the name of
respiratory filters 175.
Particle filters and pad particle filters are used to reduce the con-
tent of harmful particles in the breathing air.
Pad particle filters can be fitted to the gas filter using a pad cap and
can be attached to the mask.
Gas filters are used to reduce certain harmful vapours and gases
in the breathing air.
Combination filters are used when particles as well as gases and
vapours are likely to occur.
Intended use
Respiratory filters 175 combined with Würth half masks (HM 175)
or full face masks (VM 175) form a filter apparatus set. A filter ap-
paratus filters certain gases, vapours and particles from the air
breathed by the wearer within the specified limit values.
Approvals
The respiratory filters are approved according to:
 EN 14 387
 EN 143:2000/A1:2006
 (EU) 2016/425
 AS/NZS 1716:2012

Limitation in the intended use
– Do not use the filters in oxygen-enriched atmospheres.
– Depending on their design, Würth respiratory filters can also
be used in areas designated as Zone 1 and 2 or 21 and 22 if
used as intended.
– Do not use filter apparatus sets when there is a suspicion of
contaminants with low warning properties (smell, taste, irrita-
tion of eyes and airways).
– Particle filters and combined filters protect against the incorpo-
ration of radioactive particles. They do not, however, offer any
protection against the radiation from radioactive materials or
against radiation damage.
– Gas filters with the designation A1 or A2 must not be used in
the presence of low-boiling groups. This also applies to the
corresponding multi-use filters.
