Preconditions for use

WARNING
Fire hazard due to sparks or liquid metal splashes
► Always use powered air purifying respirators with a
particle or combination filter with additional prefilter if
sparks or liquid metal splashes may occur during use.
► Replace the prefilter at regular intervals; at least once per
shift, but in case of visible contamination at the very latest.
► Replace particle and combination filters as soon as they
are visibly contaminated with dust even if the residual
capacity indicator of the powered air purifying respirator
indicates that the residual capacity is still sufficient.
► Avoid direct contact of sparks and liquid metal splashes
with the powered air purifying respirator: Contact of a
heavily contaminated prefilter, particle or combination filter
with sparks or liquid metal splashes can cause damage to
the filter or ignite the collected particles.
– The ambient conditions (in particular type and
concentration of the contaminants) must be known.
– The oxygen content of the ambient air must not drop
below the following limit values:
– at least 17 Vol% oxygen in all European countries
except for the Netherlands, Belgium and Great Britain
– At least 19 Vol% oxygen in the Netherlands, Belgium,
the UK, Australia and New Zealand.
– At least 19.5 Vol% oxygen in the USA
Observe the national guidelines in other countries.
1) The year of manufacture results from the 3rd letter of the serial num-
ber: F = 2014, G = omitted, H = 2015, I = omitted, J = 2016, K = 2017
etc. Example: Serial number ARFH-0054: The third letter is F, the year
of manufacture is therefore 2014.

Incorrect assembly of the components can impair the device
function.
► For rechargeable battery, carrying system, splash guard
cover, and gas filter or combination filter ensure that:

sockets when inserted
– Do not jam the respective components when they are
snapped into place
Perform the following activities outside the danger zone:
1. Select components of the powered air purifying respirator
according to the required protection class and task (see

2. Carry out a visual inspection (see chapter 5.3.1 Visual
inspection).
3. Checking the rechargeable battery capacity:
a. Press the button to display the battery capacity on the
rechargeable battery.
b. Read the battery status indicator.
c. If the battery capacity is insufficient for the planned
period of service: Replace or charge the rechargeable
battery (see chapter )
It might be required to fully charge the rechargeable
battery prior to the first commissioning of the device.
4. Insert filter (see chapter 5.3.3 Replacing the filter).
5. Assembling the carrying system:
a. Position both connection points of the connection plate
on the blower unit sockets. Ensure that the arrows on
the belt and the rear of the blower unit go together.
b. Push down connection plate until it snaps audibly into
place.
6. Attach accessories if applicable:
► Attach comfortable padding to the standard belt with
the press studs.
