filter is selected according to the type of hazard present.
Promask
o
Use as filter mask together with a Pro2000 filter (gas, particle or combined filters). The filters are thread
filters conforming to the European standard EN 148-1.
o
Use with a blower device, with the filters fitted to the blower device.

2. Limitations to use
2.1 This product must only be used by trained persons fully aware of workplace hazards.
2.2 The filtering device must not be used if the environment and contamination is unknown. In case of doubt,
isolating respirators (air supply) which function independently of the atmosphere must be used.
2.3 The filtering device must not be used in confined spaces (e.g. cisterns, tanks) because of the risk of
oxygen deficiency or presence of heavy oxygen-displacing gases (e.g. carbon dioxide).
2.4 The filtering device may be used only if the oxygen content of the air is 18–23 vol.%.
2.5 Gas filters do not protect against particles. Similarly, particle filters do not provide protection against gases
or vapours. In case of doubt, use combined filters.
2.6 Normal filtering devices do not protect against certain gases such as CO (carbon monoxide), CO
dioxide) and N

2.7 Particle filters are only allowed for single use if they are applied against radioactive agents or micro-
organisms (virus, bacteria, fungi and spores).
It is likely that adequate protection cannot be guaranteed if the user's beard, hair, spectacle frames or
2.8
clothing intrude into the face seal. With the Promask one can use special spectacles (see 5512790
spectacle frame).
2.9 When a breathing protector is used in potentially explosive atmospheres, please follow the instructions
given for such areas.
2.10 Gas filters shall be replaced when the user begins to sense odour, taste or irritation. Filters used against
detrimental gases that do not display any significant indications, require special regulations for the
duration of use and correct usage. Particle filters must be replaced at the latest when breathing resistance
becomes too high.
2.11 The weight of filter used with a full face mask shall not exceed 500 g. The Promask is used with one filter
only (the other opening on the mask is blocked by the manufacturer).

The Promask
both filters at the same time.
2.12 Working with open fire or molten metal splashes poses a risk of ignition for filters containing activated
carbon (gas filters and combined filters), whereby hazardous toxic concentrations can rapidly build up.
With a blower device
2.13 The blower must be running while using the respirator. If the blower turns off by accident, the device
ceases to function as a respirator, and carbon dioxide levels may instantly rise. This is considered an
exceptional situation.
2.14 At a very intense working pace, the pressure in the facepiece can change into negative pressure at peak
inhalation.
2.15 Protection levels may be reduced if wind speed exceeds 2 m/s.
2.16 Filters must not be fitted directly to the breathing hose.
