Description
The charge status display is identical to the one on the blower
unit control (see section 2.2.1 on page 6).
The rechargeable batteries reach their full capacity after
5 charge and discharge cycles. The standard charge takes
approx. 3 hours.
In cases where the battery has been completely drained
charging may take up to 4 hours longer. During this time the
battery status indicator is not supported.
To prevent damage to or explosion of the rechargeable battery,
charging is limited to a temperature range of 32 to 122 °F (0 to
50 °C). If this temperature range is exceeded or falls below,
charging will stop automatically and continue once the
temperature range is reached again.

Functional description

The powered air purifying respirator is a respiratory protective
device depending on circulating air. It filters the ambient air and
makes it available as breathable air. The device continuously
takes in ambient air through the respiratory filter. The
respiratory filter absorbs harmful substances depending on the
respiratory filter type. In this way, the ambient air is recycled
8
and finally reaches the respiratory inlet covering. There it is
available as breathable air.
A continuous overpressure in the respiratory inlet covering
prevents ambient air from penetrating.
2.4

Intended use

Depending on the employed respiratory filter type, the device
protects against particles, gases and vapours or combinations
hereof.
