Scott Safety FM4 Instrucciones De Utilización Y Mantenimiento

PRE-OPERATIONAL WARNINGS
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND FULLY UNDERSTAND.
KEEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
Improper use of this equipment may result in Personal Injury or Death. Improper use
includes, but is not limited to, use without adequate training, disregard of the warnings
and instructions contained herein, and failure to inspect and maintain this Respiratory
Protective Equipment. Read and understand all instructions before attempting to
operate or service this equipment.
This equipment is intended to be used only in conjunction with an organised Respiratory
Protection program.
Before using this equipment, read the contents of AS/NZS 1715 and familiarise yourself
with the requirements for Respiratory Protective Equipment and their potential effects
on the wearer.
PAPR system users must be familiar with workplace hazards prior to using the equipment
and must be fully trained in the use of the apparatus.
Scott Safety headtops must be used with a Scott Safety blower, unless otherwise
directed. Read this manual, the PAPR manual, Scott Safety Filter manuals, prior to using
this equipment.
The blower must be fitted with the correct range of filters which are appropriate for the
workplace hazard.
This product must only be used with filters manufactured by Scott Safety. The use of any
other filters will negate the approval and will be likely to reduce the level of protection
provided.
Do NOT use a PAPR in confined spaces, oxygen deficient atmospheres (<19%), oxygen
enriched atmospheres (>23.5%), or where there is an immediate hazard to life or health.
Local regulations may apply.
Do NOT use if the ambient temperature is outside of the range -10°C to +50°C. Humidity
levels up to 95% RH do not present any operational problems.
Do NOT use if the apparatus is damaged. The headtop and air hose must be inspected
on every occasion before use to ensure that no damage of any kind is evident which
could cause leakage or reduced levels of protection. A monthly inspection of the
apparatus is a mandatory requirement in the UK under COSHH regulations and
inspection on a monthly basis is strongly recommended for all other countries.
Protection will only be obtained if the equipment is fitted correctly.
Protection levels may be reduced if wind speed exceeds 2 meters per second.
In the unlikely event that the PAPR fails while in a hazardous area, there may be an
increase of carbon dioxide and contamination within the headtop. leave the area
immediately.
Scott Safety headtops can be used in certain explosive and flammable atmospheres
when used with a blower which is marked as intrinsically safe. It is the employers
responsibility to ensure that the intrinsic safety approval is compatible with the particular
environment.
At very high work-rates, pressure in the apparatus may become negative at peak
inhalation flow.
It is unlikely that the requirements for protection will be achieved if hair, spectacle side-
arms or clothing intrude into the faceseal.
Изискването за защита едва ли ще бъде спазено, ако под уплътнението за лицето
има захванати коса, рамки на очила или дрехи.
