Nuisance Odor Assembly
1. This product is one component of an approved respiratory protection system. Always read and follow all User Instructions supplied with your
3M™ Headgear and other system components in order to ensure correct system operation. Failure to do so may result in injury, sickness,
or death.
2. The 3M™ Adflo™ PAPR System is not intrinsically safe. Do not use in flammable or explosive atmospheres, doing so may result in serious
injury or death.
3. Always correctly use and maintain the filter assembly. Failure to do so may reduce respirator performance, overexpose you to
contaminants, and may result in sickness or death.
a. Inspect filter and filter seal before each use and immediately replace if damaged.
b. Always properly install the filter into the blower unit. Do not press on the filter grill when installing the filter into the filter cover. This may result
in damage to the filter membrane allowing hazardous particles to enter the breathing zone.
c. Keep filter seal clean.
d. Never attempt to clean filters by knocking or blowing out accumulated material. This may result in damage to the filter membrane allowing
hazardous particles to enter the breathing zone.
4. The nuisance odor pad should only be used for concentrations of organic vapors not exceeding the OSHA permissible exposure limit (PEL)
or applicable government occupational exposure limits, whichever is lower. Replace if smell or taste is detected. Use of the nuisance pad for
concentrations exceeding applicable exposure limits may result in sickness or death.
Install the 3M™ Adflo™ Nuisance Odor Pad Assembly
The 3M™ Adflo™ PAPR has a "stackable" nuisance odor pad assembly to help reduce nuisance odors and nuisance ozone. When using a nuisance
odor pad assembly with a fresh particle HE filter, the first two LEDs of the scale may be illuminated due to the additional resistance to air flow.
NOTE: Nuisance odor refers to concentrations of organic vapors not exceeding the OSHA permissible exposure limit (PEL) or applicable government
occupational exposure limits, whichever is lower.
NOTE: The nuisance odor pad assembly must always be used with the HE filter, pre-filter and spark arrestor. Do not use the nuisance odor pad
assembly alone or in combination with the Adflo OV/AG cartridge.
Remove the filter cover assembly as noted above (Fig. 1).
1. Inspect the filter cover, HE filter, the pre-filter and the spark arrestor. Replace as needed (Fig. 2). Always properly install the filter into the blower
unit, do not press on the filter grill when installing the filter into the filter cover (Fig 3).
2. Hook the left side of the nuisance odor pad assembly into the left side of the PAPR and press the assembly down until its catch engages with an
audible click (Fig. 4).
3. Hook the left side of the filter cover assembly into the left side of the nuisance odor pad assembly and press the assembly down until its catch
