Scott Safety Duraflow Anleitung

PRE-OPERATIONAL WARNINGS
Read carefully and fully understand
Keep instructions for future reference
Improper use of this equipment may result in personal injury or death. Improper use
includes, but is not limited to, use without adequate training, disregard of the warnings
and instructions contained herein, and failure to inspect and maintain this Respiratory
Protective Equipment. Read and understand all instructions before attempting to operate
or service this equipment.
This equipment is intended to be used only in conjunction with an organised Respiratory
Protection program.
Before using this equipment, read the contents of EN529:2005 and familiarise yourself
with the requirements for Respiratory Protective Equipment and their potential effects
on the wearer.
PAPR system users must be familiar with workplace hazards prior to using the equipment
and must be fully trained in the use of the Duraflow PAPR.
In the 'power off' state, there is little or no respiratory protection. This is regarded as an
abnormal condition. In the 'power off' state, a rapid build-up of carbon dioxide and a
depletion of oxygen within the hood or helmet may occur.
Scott Safety PAPRs must be used with a Scott Safety headtop, unless otherwise directed.
Read this manual, the headtop manual and Scott Safety Filter manuals, prior to using this
equipment.
The PAPR must be fitted with the appropriate and correct range of filters for the workplace
hazard.
This product must only be used with filters manufactured by Scott Safety. The use of any
other filters will negate the approval and will be likely to reduce the level of protection
provided.
Do not confuse EN12941 and EN12942 filter markings with filter markings relating to other
EN standards.
Do not use a PAPR in confined spaces, oxygen deficient atmospheres (<19%), oxygen
enriched atmospheres (>23%), or where there is an immediate danger to life or health.
Local regulations may apply.
Do not use if the ambient temperature is outside of the range -10°C to +50°C. Humidity
levels up to 95% RH do not present any operational problems.
Do not use if the PAPR is damaged. Inspect the headtop and airhose each time before use
to ensure that there is no damage of any kind that may cause leakage or reduced levels
of protection. A monthly inspection of the PAPR is a mandatory requirement in the UK
under COSHH regulations and inspection on a monthly basis is strongly recommended for
all other countries.
Protection will only be obtained if the equipment is fitted correctly.
Protection levels may be reduced if wind speed exceeds two meters per second.
In the unlikely event that the PAPR fails while in a hazardous area, there may be an increase
of carbon dioxide and contamination within the headtop. Leave the area immediately.
At very high work-rates, pressure in the PAPR may become negative at peak inhalation
flow.
Do not fit the filters directly to the headtop.
