1. Application and conditions for use
The PeRSo 2.0 Powered Air-Purifying Respirator (PAPR)
system is intended to be used to provide protection when the user
works in a contaminated environment. It is to be used for dust and
particles only, not for gases or vapors and is used to reduce or
remove resistance to inhalation during respiration – by producing a
constant airflow. There are three levels of flow rate, low, medium
and high. The PeRSo system complies with the requirements of
European Standard EN 12941 class TH1.
2. Description
A complete PeRSo 2.0 PAPR system consists of:
•Blower unit, provided with a dust filter unit, supplied with a
belt and comfort plate, a hose with a bayonet connector
(Blower unit) and an EN thread connector (mask).
•Rechargeable battery, which is placed inside the apparatus.
•Battery charger, fully automatic.
•The complete set is supplied in a carton carrier box.
3. Use
The unit supplies an overcapacity of clean and filtered ambient
air, which is fed into the mask. It allows the user to breathe in
air without having to overcome the resistance of the filter.
Considering that an adult person requires some 50 litres of air
per minute, the overcapacity ensures an overpressure and thus
a high degree of protection.
With a fully charged battery the unit will operate for 8 hours. The
unit contains a warning facility to warn the user against reduced
air supply, due to clogged filter or low battery.
3.1Prior to use
Before using the PeRSo 2.0 PAPR, the user must ensure that
all the conditions for safe use have been satisfied. See section
8 for the applicable statutory regulations and rules.
• Check that the appropriate hose connector is fitted to
the hose
• Check before use that the battery is sufficiently charged
and that the free flow of air is not obstructed by a blocked
hose or other causes.
• Check that a filter is fitted correctly.
• Check that the lids of the battery and filter housing are
closed.
3.1.1 Usage limitations system
The space in which the unit is to be used must contain at least
19.5% oxygen and must not contain any explosive gases or
vapors. In enclosed spaces where there is a risk of oxygen
deficiency, use of the unit should be avoided.
•Air speed in excess of 2m/s can affect the protection
factor.
•The ambient usage temperature should be between -10
and +50.
•Do not use the unit in circumstances where hazardous

gases and/or vapors are present.
Warning
If the user of the respirator feels dizzy or uncomfortable or can
smell/taste anything, he should abandon the contaminated area
immediately and check the unit.
3.1.2 Usage limitations filter element
Used filter elements cannot be cleaned.
Warning
Never attempt to clean a filter element; the filter media may be
damaged, resulting in loss of protection.
3.1.3 Charging batteries
The battery is supplied partially charged. The charging time for
a fully discharged battery is approximately 5 hours. To ensure
maximum working time, it is recommended batteries are fully
charged before use. The automatic setting of the charger
prevents damage to the batteries when the charging time is
exceeded. Under normal circumstances the battery can be
charged and discharged approximately 500 times. After the
battery is completely charged, the charger will switch over to
trickle charging. This will expand the lifetime of the battery
beyond 500 charge cycles.
3.2 Switching on
The unit can be switched on by pushing the ON/OFF button for
three seconds. A sound signal will be heard to indicate that the
electronic control unit is working correctly.
3.3 During use
After turn on, the system runs and self-checks first at full speed
for 3 seconds. After you can set the low-medium-high air flow
speed.
Note: the LED light is on for 5 seconds, if you need to adjust the
air flow later, first press the “ON/OFF/SET” button to turn on the
light, and then set the air flow speed. During usage, if the air
supply drops or fails entirely, leave the work area immediately.
If the sound signal for low battery (two continuous short beeps
repeatedly) is heard or a clogged filter element (a single short
beep repeatedly), leave the workroom immediately, and check
the unit in accordance with section 6.
3.4 After use
Press the button "ON/OFF/SET" for 2 seconds, when you see
the three LED lights flash twice, the device is turned off.
3.4.1 Cleaning and disinfecting
After each session clean the unit, do not use any solvent. During
cleaning ensure that no water is allowed to enter the apparatus.
The unit must not be immersed. Dry the unit with a cloth and/or
leave it to dry in the open air.
Advice
For reasons of hygiene each operator should be equipped with
their own hood or mask.

4. Maintenance and inspection
Prior to use: Check unit is fully functional.
After use: Clean and disinfect check functionality of the complete
system.
Every 6 months: Clean and disinfect the blower unit;
Clean and check functionality of the complete system. Check the
hose for leakage’s and inspect the connector for damage.
5. Storage
Before storing the unit it should be thoroughly dry.
Do not keep soiled filter canisters together with the unit and the
mask in the same enclosed storage space.
Remove the filters from the unit and seal them.
6. Faults/troubleshooting
