The term „Particle filter" means that it contains particle filter element

THE P3 R PARTICLE FILTER
type P3 R in combination with a suitable chemical protective mask or filter
aid with auxiliary ventilation attached to a helmet or hood, the P3 R filter
forms a perfect protection of the individual against harmful solid and liquid
particles, biologically solid and liquid aerosols, radioactive aerosols, dusts,
bacteria and viruses. The filter meets the test against dolomite dust.
ATTENTION!
The filter must not be used:
- against gases
- against carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO
nitrous oxide (NO) and nitrous oxide (N
- in an explosive atmosphere,
- in an environment with an oxygen volume (O
ATTENTION!
The real time of use of the filter cannot be determined in advance
due to a number of factors that affect it. These include, in particular,
the type and concentration of pollutants, humidity, temperature, flow
and pulmonary ventilation of the user (working intensity).

PRINCIPLES FOR USING THE FILTER

1. The user should know the type of pollutants and their concentration
which the filter intends to protect against.
2. Visually inspect the filter before using it. The filter must not be me-
chanically damaged.
3. Before opening the protective cover of the filter, check that the thread
marking corresponds to the thread on the mask to which it is to be
attached.
4. After opening the protective cover and before using the filter, remove
the thread cover and the inlet to the filter.
5. Screw the filter into the mask and, after fitting it, check the tightness
of the threaded connection by clogging the filter inlet with your
hands. When inhaling, the mask must not be sucked in.
6. The filter can be used in the temperature range from - 30 ˚C to + 70 ˚C.
ATTENTION!
If the user detects an increase in respiratory resistance during
use, the filter must be replaced.
