TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

This product, supplying breathing air to the user, has been tested in accordance with
EN 1146, ISO 23269-1 & 42 CFR (NIOSH), and is to be used according local regulations.
Manufacturer:
Interspiro AB
Box 2853, 18728 Täby, Sweden.
Spiroscape provides a constant flow of breathable air for 15 minutes.
When the air ceases to flow, a valve opens automatically and the user can breathe the
surrounding air without taking off the hood.This ensures that a user is not asphyxiated
if they lose consciousness when the air supply runs out.By shutting off the air flow
manually, a user can wear the hood during an exercise or in standby situations.
The air in the cylinder must meet the requirements of EN 12021, be free from oil and
toxic substances and have a low humidity.
2.1
Approved only when the compressed air cylinder is fully charged with air that meets
the requirements of the Compressed Gas Association Specifications G-7-1 for Type 1,
Grade D Air or higher quality, as well as having a dew point of –65 °F (–54 °C) or drier
(24 ppm v/v or less) and a particle level below 5 mg/m3 of air.
2.2
Interspiro's auto-fill adapter, see [figure 1], provides a quick and simple means
of charging the cylinder. No tools are required. The adapter prevents the 200 bar
cylinder from being charged to 300 bar.
Instructions for using the auto-fill adapter are given in chapter 5.
