USER MANUAL – ENG
Important
For your own safety please read and remember the following instructions be-
fore use. If you have any questions, please contact the manufacturer or your
distributor. Keep the manual for future reference.
1. Introduction
CleanAIR
is a personal respiratory protection system based on the principle
®
of creating an overpressure of filtered air in the breathing zone. The respirator
filters the air taken from the surrounding environment and then delivers it into
the protective hood. The overpressure prevents contaminants from entering
the breathing zone. This mild overpressure ensures the wearer's comfort, even
with long-term use. Breathing remains easy because the user does not have to
overcome the resistance of the filter. The head piece can also be used with the
Pressure Flow Master system, which operates on the principle of supplying air
from locations with clean air.
All the light hoods presented in this user manual provide respiratory protection
and face protection against particles with high speed and low energy impact.
In addition, the CA-10 hood also provides chemical resistance. The material of
CA-10 is resistant to acids, alkalis, and organic substances.
If not sure about the suitability of the hood for a specific application, consult with
the manufacturer or your supplier!
2. Limitations on use
1. Never use the hood in the following environments and under the following
conditions:
• If oxygen concentration in the environment is lower than 17 %.
• In oxygen-enriched environments.
• In environments where the user lacks knowledge about the type of dan-
gerous substances and their concentration.
• In environments that represent an immediate danger to life and health.
2. If the protection foil is damaged, replace it immediately.
3. The hood does not protect against hard shocks, explosions or corrosive
substances.
4. Move to a secure location and take appropriate measures when any of the
following problems occur while using the hood:
• If you feel a significant increase in breathing resistance or any other prob-
lems with breathing.
• If you experience stench, irritation or an unpleasant taste while breathing.
• If you feel unwell or experience nausea.
5. Use certified original filters designed for your powered air purifying respira-
tor only. Replace filters every time you detect the change of odour in sup-
plied air from the respirator.
6. Filters designed for capturing solid and liquid particles (particle filters) do not
protect the user against any gases. Filters designed for capturing gases do
not protect the user against any particles. In the workplace contaminated
with both particles and gases, combined filters must be used.
7. The material of the hood can cause allergic reactions to sensitive persons.
8. Pay attention to check the product before use. Do not use, if any part of the
system is damaged.
9. Don't put the hood on a hot surface.
10. This product is intended for use in environments with a temperature range of 0 °C
to + 60 °C with relative humidity of 20 - 95 % Rh.
3. Cleaning and maintenance
The lifetime of the hood and visors is influenced by many factors such as cold,
heat, chemicals, sunlight or incorrect use. The hood should be checked on a
daily basis of possible damage of its inside or outside the structure. Careful use
and correct maintenance of the protective hood enhances operating life and
improves your safety!
Checking before use:
Inspect that every part of the hood is undamaged and installed correctly.
Cleaning:
•
After each work shift, clean the head section, check individual parts, and
replace damaged parts.
•
Cleaning must be performed in a room with sufficient ventilation. Avoid inhalation
of harmful contaminants settled on individual parts!
•
For cleaning, use lukewarm water with soap or another non-abrasive deter-
gent, and a soft brush (It is not recommended to use other cleaning agents
or solvents).
•
After cleaning individual parts with a damp cloth, it is necessary to rub them
dry or let them dry at room temperature.
•
For care about the visors and plastic parts is recommended to use the Clea-
nAIR
klar-pilot Fluids.
® ®
It is necessary to pay more attention to the protection of the product
when using a washing machine or a dishwasher!
When cleaning with acetone or other solvents the product may get
damaged and may lose protection.
Visor protective foils
Hoods are supplied with a foil protecting the visor against damage during han-
dling and transport. The foil is sewn in the hood and it must be removed carefully.
A separately supplied foil 0,1 mm thick is designated to protect the shields of
these hoods after the removal of original foil. To attach it to the shield, the foil is
provided with self-adhesive tapes on the sides.
Protective foil replacement:
•
Peel off the old foil, wipe the hood visor with a damp cloth to remove the
impurities from it.
•
Remove the protective paper from the self-adhesive tape and stick the foil
on the shield.
Headband adjustments
1. Set the depth of the headgear by resetting the top headband. The ideal
position of the headgear is where the sweatband sits slightly above the level
of the eyebrows.
2. Set the headgear so that it fits firmly on your head:
• VariGEAR: by turning the rear wheel.
• Basic headgear: resetting the front headband.
3. Set the optimal distance between the nose and visor to 2 cm. Reset the
position of the rails on both sides of the headgear (see the pictorial annex
on the end of the manual).

5. Storage and shelf life
Store the hood in a dry and clean place at room temperature, avoid direct sun-
light (temperature range from -10 °C to +55 °C) with a relative humidity between
20 and 95 % Rh).
6. Warranty
The warranty ensures that you will receive a replacement if a product has any man-
ufacturing or material defects that appear within 12 months of the date of purchase.
The warranty claim must be reported to the sales department/retailer. At the same
