HEADPIECES FOR POWERED FILTERING UNIT TURBINE 170
Before using the headpiece it is important that you read these instructions and those supplied with the Powered Filtering Unit

below for approved combinations.
Head Pieces
H Tyvek ® F Hood
FU Flip up visor
CFU Helmet with visor
WARNING
Respiratory protection will be reduced unless the headpiece is correctly fitted and properly maintained.
No respiratory protection is given with a flip up visor when the visor is in the up position. The respiratory protection offered by
visors and hoods may be reduced where high wind velocities exist.
It is essential that the assembly and fitting of any protective equipment be done in a "clean air" area. The wearer should also
leave the contaminated area and have all contamination removed from their person and clothes before removing the
respiratory protection.
H TYVEK® F HOOD
The hood provides protection of the eyes and, coupled with the powered filtering unit Turbine 170 SPASCIANI, a respiratory
protection class TH2 (see EN 12941). The Hood is made of Tyvek® F, incorporating a polycarbonate visor attached to a brow
guard. Filtered air is ducted from the Power Unit up a spiral hose into an air channel and is discharged at the top of the visor
directed into the breathing zone.
Although the hood is supplied fully assembled it may be necessary to remove the protective cover from the outside of the visor
prior to use. It is also necessary to inspect that there is no visible damage to the hood, visor, browguard, and hose.
The hose connects between the headpiece and breathing hose by a bayonet fitting.
Fitting
Attach hose to the powered filtering unit and refer to instructions supplied with the powered filtering unit. Fit the waistbelt
around the body with the buckle at the front, whilst supporting the headpiece.
Adjust the crown strap to achieve a comfortable fit with the headband above the ears. Don the visor and adjust the head
harness to the correct size using the rear ratchet knob.
Maintenance
The visor should be replaced when it becomes scratched, damaged or pitted. To remove the old visor, firstly remove the two
front white studs by pushing them out from the inside. Then press the visor to deflect the sides away from the browguard and
then remove. To fit the screen to the browguard, locate the holes at both ends of the visor in the browguard. Feed the screen
into the slot in the browguard and apply gentle pressure at the front of the visor to deflect it over the central carrier peg until it
is located in the central visor hole. Ensure that all carrier pegs are fully located into the visor holes. Then re‐fit the two white
studs into the front of the browguard so that they go through both the browguard and the visor. Hood, air hose or channel
should be replaced if damaged.
Cleaning
The visor, browguard and hose should be swabbed with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water. Wipe with a dry soft cloth. Do
not allow water to enter the air channel.
FU FLIP UP VISOR
The flip‐up visor provides protection of the eyes and, coupled with the powered filtering unit Turbine 170 SPASCIANI, a
respiratory protection class TH2 (see EN 12941).
Filtered air is ducted from the Power Unit up a spiral hose, and into an air channel. The air is discharged into the top of the visor
area maximizing anti misting and directed to the breathing zone.
