The Easiair® 2020 Reusable Premium Full Soft Hood is a TH2, impact resistant, loose-tting hood top accessory for
the Easiair®2020 PAPR system and requires a fully assembled and working unit to function.
The Easiair® 2020 PAPR system circulates clean pressured air around a loose-tting hood. The belt-mounted
blower unit delivers air through a lter, via a hose, into the hooded headpiece. The constant supply of ltered air
creates positive pressure inside the headpiece, which prevents external contaminated air from entering the user’s
breathing zone.
A protective lm is applied to the visor during the manufacturing process to protect the visor from scratches.
Remove before use.
•For further information, please refer to the Easiair®2020 PAPR Kit IFU document.
ATTENTION!
If any components are cracked, torn or damaged, they should be replaced immediately.
Failure to do so may negatively affect the performance and protection of the respirator,
potentially resulting in user ill-health or even death.
2. RANGE OF APPLICATIONS
