The Promask has been designed to conform with EN 136/12942 (Europe) and AS/NZS 1716:2003 (Australia/

1. General
The Sari is designed to protect the respiratory system and face against hazardous gases and particles.
The fi lter is selected according to the type of hazard present.
•
Use as fi lter mask together with a Pro2000 fi lter (gas, particle or combined fi lters). The fi lters are
thread fi lters conforming to the European standard EN 148-1.
•
Use with a blower device, with fi lters fi tted to the blower device.
•
The Sari NR, Sari CR and Sari SIL equipped with a polycarbonate visor are suitable for specialised
applications, such as fi re-fi ghting and mining work.

2. Limitations of use

2.1 The fi ltering 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.
2.2 The fi ltering device must not be used in confi ned spaces (e.g. cisterns, tunnels) because of the risk of
oxygen defi ciency or presence of heavy oxygen-displacing gases (e.g. carbon dioxide).
2.3 The fi ltering device may be used only if the oxygen content of the air is 18–23 vol.%.
2.4 Gas fi lters do not protect against particles. Similarly, particle fi lters do not provide protection against
gases or vapours. In case of doubt, use combined fi lters.
2.5 Normal fi ltering devices do not protect against certain gases such as CO (carbon monoxide), CO
(carbon dioxide) and N
2.6 Particle fi lters are only allowed for single use if they are applied against radioactive agents or micro-
organisms (virus, bacteria, fungi and spores).
2.7 It is likely that adequate protection cannot be guaranteed if the user's beard, hair, spectacle frames or
clothing intrude into the faceseal. With the Sari one can use special spectacles (see 012190 spectacle
frame).
2.8 When a breathing protector is used in explosive atmospheres, please follow the instructions given for
such areas.
2.9 Gas fi lters shall be replaced when the user begins to sense odour, taste or irritation. Filters used
against detrimental gases that do not display any signifi cant indications, require special regulations for
the duration of use and correct usage.
Particle fi lters must be replaced at the latest when breathing resistance becomes too high.
2.10 The weight of fi lter used with a full face mask shall not exceed 500 g. The Sari is used with one fi lter
only.
With a blower device
2.11 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.
2.12 At a very intense working pace, the pressure in the facepiece can change into negative pressure at
peak inhalation.
2.13 Protection levels may be reduced if wind speed exceeds 2 m/s.
2.14 Filters must not be fi tted directly to the the mask or breathing hose.
