Mask Fitting - CleanSpace HALO CS3000 Bedienungsanleitung

FLOW TEST BUTTON
This button is used to check that the respirator is able to deliver its minimum designed flow. Pressing it
once, when the CleanSpace is in Standby Mode (not ON Mode), starts the flow test which lasts about 5
seconds. See Section 10 for instructions on running the flow test.
BATTERY INDICATOR LIGHTS
Your respirator is equipped with an indicator of battery charge. There are three (3) battery indicator
lights. With the charger plugged in and three green lights lit, the battery is fully charged and typically has up to eight
(8) hours of operating time. The respirator should be fully charged before use.
If you need to be sure the battery is 100% charged plug in the charger. Even if the battery is fully charged, the 3
LED will flash for at least three minutes while the respirator checks its condition. Once all 3 LEDs light solidly
For how to assess the level of charge, see Section 14.
When the battery approaches a level at which it would not be able to supply the Manufacturer's Minimum Design
Flow, an alarm sounds (3 beeps, repeated once per second). All green battery lights are extinguished. If the low
battery alarm sounds you must leave the contaminated area immediately and recharge the battery.
Operating time is affected by mask seal, work rate and other factors. The operating times quoted above are
average durations at moderate work rates at sea level. Actual operating times may vary widely from average
durations.
FILTER WARNING ALARM
CleanSpace Respirators have a Filter Warning Alarm, which is triggered when the filter is blocked. If
the Filter Warning Alarm sounds (two beeps, repeated once per second) or the Filter Warning
Alarm light comes on, you must move out of the contaminated area, and change the filter.

9. Mask Fitting

Before using your respirator you must determine the right mask for your face and know how to adjust the system to
achieve a good fit.
It is vital that your mask is the right size for your face and fits properly. Mask fitting must be carried out by a
specialist / designated mask fitter.
To carry out a quantitative fit test your specialist mask fitter will require PAF-0025 PortaCount Adaptor and the
accompanying S005-7174 Quantitative Fit Test Instructions. The PortaCount Adaptor is an accessory that fits
between the mask and the exhalation valve and allows the air in the mask to be sampled. It comes with detailed
instructions on how to carry out a quantitative fit test.
CleanSpace HALO is a tight fitting respirator and National standards recommend the user be clean shaven.
IF A SATISFACTORY FIT FACTOR CANNOT BE ACHIEVED WITH ANY OF THE MASKS, CLEANSPACE HALO
MASK SELECTION GUIDELINES
No set of guidelines can ensure that you have the right size mask for your face. You must confirm the fit
with a quantitative fit test. But the table below will help your mask fitting specialist to select the mask most likely to
fit you, and may therefore save time.
