  • Page 25: Battery Information

    16. Battery Information CleanSpace2 is not intrinsically safe. Do not use in flammable or explosive atmospheres. Doing so may result in injury or death. Always correctly use and maintain the internal lithium ion battery packs. Failure to do so may result in fire or explosion or could adversely affect respirator performance and result in injury, sickness or death.
  • Page 26 Li-ion cells. The soft packaging allows the cells to expand slightly under extreme heat, making them safer in fault conditions. CleanSpace respirators use quality Li-ion polymer batteries and are designed to be viable over a minimum of 500 complete charge and discharge cycles while still maintaining at least 70% of their specified full capacity.
  • Page 27: Cleaning

    We recommended that you clean your respirator after every use. The mask, blower, neck pad and harness need to be cleaned separately. Disassemble the mask, neck pad and harness from the blower before cleaning. CleanSpace Cleaning Wipes are recommended as a simple and effective method of cleaning the blower and masks.
  • Page 28: Periodic Maintenance & Checking

    Use a gentle brush to remove any dirt, grit or fibres from the Velcro attached to the blower.  Using CleanSpace Cleaning Wipes, wipe down the outside of the blower. The blower can also be cleaned with a damp cloth.
