Preparation For Use - 3M 9100 MP Benutzerhandbuch

protective device.
Users should be clean-shaven where the
respirator's face seal comes into contact
with the face.
This product meets the requirement of
certain industrial eyewear standards and
certain industrial head protection standards.
They do not provide complete head, eye
and face protection from severe impact and
penetration and are not a substitute for good
safety practice and engineering controls.
The safety helmet/bump cap is made to
absorb the energy of a blow by partial
destruction or damage to the shell and the
harness, and even though such damage may
not be readily apparent, any helmet subjected
to severe impact should be replaced.
The Speedglas welding helmet 9100 MP-
Lite (bump cap) does not provide protection
against the effects of falling or thrown
objects, or moving suspended loads. It
should not be used instead of an industrial
safety helmet as specified in EN 397.
When working in cold environments the 52
30 01 antifog visor plate shall be used due to
risk of fogging.
Do not use in high heat environments above
the recommended maximum temperature.
Respiratory filters shall only be fitted to the
turbo unit and not directly to the helmet/hood

Visor plate: 3M 1 BT N
Outer protection plate: 3M 1 BT
Inner cover plate: 3M 1 S
3M = Manufacturer
1= Optical class
S= Increased robustness
B= Resistance to high speed particles
at medium energy impact (120
m/s.)
BT= Resistance to high speed particles
at medium energy impact (120
m/s.) at extremes of temperatures
(-5°C and +55°C)
N= Resistance to fogging
2
TH3= assigned protection factor 40,
nominal protection factor 500,
higher strength requirement for
breathing tube and couplings
3B= assigned protection factor 40,
nominal protection factor 200,
higher strength requirement.
If the symbols of the impact marking (F,B) are
not common to both the outer protection plate
and the helmet shell, the lower protection level
shall be assigned to the complete protection
equipment
LD = Lateral deformation
440 V a.c.= Electrical insulation
*EN 166: if protection against high speed
particles at extremes of temperature is required
then the selected eye-protector should be
marked with the letter T immediately after the
impact letter, i.e. FT, BT or AT. If the impact
letter is not followed by the letter T then the eye
protector shall only be used against high speed
particles at room temperature.
Additional markings on the product refer to
other standards.

PREPARATION FOR USE

Carefully inspect the complete welding
helmet before each use. Check for cracks
and openings in seals. A cracked, pitted
or scratched visor plate may reduce vision
and can seriously impair protection. All
damaged components should be replaced
immediately. Remove any protective film
before use.
The shield is heat resistant but can catch
fire or melt in contact with open flames or
very hot surfaces. Keep the shield clean to
minimize this risk.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Adjust the welding helmet 9100 MP/9100 MP-
Lite according to your individual requirements
to reach the highest comfort and protection.
(see fig B:1 - B:4). A size reducing ratchet
comfort pad may be required to improve fit and
stability
Adjust and fit the air delivery unit as outlined
in the appropriate User Instruction. Lower the
visor into the down position. Pull the strap on
