1. Introduction
CleanAIR® Pressure systems are systems of continuous flow compressed air line breathing apparatus. The system is based on the principle of overpressure of filtered air in the breathing zone. The air is taken from the source of compressed air (compressor) delivered to CA Pressure Condi­tioner where the solid particles, oil mists and unpleasant odours are removed. Then is the air delive­red to CA Pressure/CA Pressure Flow Master, which allows to regulate the airflow delivered through the hose into a protective mask or hood. The overpressure in the breathing zone prevents from entering of con­taminants. This mild overpressure at the same time ensures the wearer’s comfort, even with long-term use, as the wearer does not have to struggle in their breathing to overcome the resistance of the filter.
The air supplied from the compressor directly (without use of CAP Conditioner filter) to CA Pressu­re (Flow Master) must be hygienically clean and must comply with the EN 12021 standard. If the air does not comply with this requirement, install the CA Pressure Conditioner filtration unit before the CA Pressure unit/ CAP Flow Master!
Apart from CA Pressure (CAP), CleanAIR® Pressure Flow Master (CAP FM) is equipped with a pressure gauge for the current check of the input pressure and with warning whistle, which will warn the user in the case of an inlet pressure decreases below the bottom limit of operation pressure.
The air at the outlet of CA Pressure Conditioner complies with EN 12021 if it is used within the range of temperatures stated in Chapter 10 and the air from the compressor complies with the requirements of Chapter 1.1. CA Pressure Conditioner removes oil mist, smells and flavours. There can be two users connec­ted to the filtration station (CAP Conditioner).
CAP Conditioner does not remove carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air!!!
1.1. Requirements for compressed air supplied from the compressor
• CA Pressure Conditioner can only be connected to compressor which supplies air at an oxygen con­centration of 20 % to 22 % vol. The carbon dioxide concentration must not exceed 500 ppm and the carbon monoxide concentration must not exceed 15 ppm.
• The maximum concentration of water in the air may be 50 mg/m³ at the rated pressure of 1 to 20 MPa. The humidity of the supplied air must be controlled to prevent the unit from freezing.
2. Instructions for Use
Read this manual carefully and follow its instructions!!!
• The user must fully understand the instructions.
• During an extreme work load, the pressure in the hood may reach negative values and the user may feel air deficiency. In such case the protection of air passages is reduced.
• The use of oxygen-enriched air and oxygen is forbidden in the CleanAIR® system due to the risk of explosion.
• The system may only be used in environ­ments with a small probability of damage of the supply hose and where the user’s movement is not limited.
• If, apart from CleanAIR®, another accessory (e.g. a spray gun) is connected to the compressed air supply, the user must make sure that a sufficient air flow to the hood is secured even at the maxi­mum air consumption by this accessory.
• If the unit is used in environments with high tem­peratures, the supply hose must be resistant to such effects.
• It is forbidden to use the unit in explosive enviroments.
• Before every use of the unit, check that the air flow is higher than the minimum value specified in the technical parameters.
• If the unit stops supplying air for any reason, the user must leave the contaminated area immedia­tely.
• The unit, in a combination with a welding helmet

or a safety helmet, is not recommended for users with beard or long hair extending to the respiratory zone.
• Beware of a higher CO2 concentration in the air­supply, which may occur if the compressor does not work properly, when the lubricating oil someti­mes burns due to high temperatures.
• The supply air pressure must be within the range between 400 - 1000 kPa.
• The supply pressure hoses may only be located in such places of the workplace where they cannot be damaged.
• Pressure hoses for CA Pressure (Flow Master) and CAP Conditioner, order No. 61 00 30 and 61 00 46, are not antistatic and the maximum temperature to which they are resistant without damage is 70 °C.
• The maximum length of the hose from the compressed air distribution or CAP Conditioner to the unit must not exceed 10 m.
• The recommended temperature range of use is 10 - 40 °C; at lower temperatures, the use of the protective hood or mask with air supply may be unpleasant.
• Before connecting the unit to the air distribution, it is necessary to check what medium is in the line and what is its quality.
• For the CA Pressure (Flow Master) it is necessary to provide breathable air according to EN 12021.
• The CA Pressure units can be combined with the types of head parts shown in the pictorial annex. It shows also classes for the respective combina­tions.
• Information on head parts are provided in the in­structions for use of the CA head parts.
If any principles stated in this manual are breached, the warranty becomes null and void!
