Use only NIOSH-approved CleanSpace filters. If used with other filters the CleanSpace2 is not NIOSH approved. Use of other filters may result in overexposure to contaminants and lead to sickness. CleanSpace2 is not intrinsically safe. Do not use in flammable or explosive atmospheres. Doing so may result in injury or death.
NIOSH APPROVAL CleanSpace2 is a NIOSH-approved respirator system. Refer to these User Instructions and to the NIOSH approval label provided with each CleanSpace2 for a listing of components that can be used to form a NIOSH-approved respirator. NIOSH CAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS A - Not for use in atmospheres containing less than 19.5 percent oxygen.
OSHA at www.OSHA.gov. In Canada, CSA standard Z94.4 requirements and/or the requirements of the applicable jurisdiction must be met. Contact an industrial hygienist or CleanSpace Technical Service with questions concerning the applicability of the respirator to your job requirements.
PARTS OF THE RESPIRATOR Your respirator can be used with either a standard filter (PAF-1102 or PAF-1103) or with a range of high capacity filters (PAF-1003, PAF-1108 & PAF-1037). The high capacity filters are used with a filter adaptor (PAF-0038) and the standard filters are used with a filter cover (PAF-1095).
To conserve battery life, the respirator is designed to automatically switch from On Mode to Standby then to Off Mode when not being worn. Important: CleanSpace2 switches into On Mode when it is in Standby Mode and the wearer starts to breathe. The respirator can only switch into On Mode from Standby Mode.

WARNING No Half Mask or Full Facepiece PAPR can fully protect you if you are not clean shaven. CleanSpace2 is not suitable for users with facial hair. MASK SELECTION GUIDELINES No set of guidelines can ensure that you have the right size mask for your face. You must confirm the fit with a fit test performed according to OSHA regulations 1910.134.
Page 11
No air in the eyes: With CleanSpace2 running, check no air leaks into your eyes. If it does, try tightening the mask, or loosen the harness a little (dropping the height of mask on the face). If those adjustments do not fix the problem, try a different size mask.
12. Using CleanSpace2 Complete the following five steps each time you use your respirator. STEP 1 - INSPECT Before each entry into a contaminated area, the following inspections must be performed: • Visually check the entire respirator system including the blower (“Power Unit”), mask, harness, filter cover or filter adaptor and filter.
Page 13
Repeat the flow test. If filter is new and battery fully charged but the respirator fails the test, contact CleanSpace and do not use until it has been evaluated. ** This test is not a battery charge test. Three LEDs means that, as of the moment it is tested, the unit can deliver high flow.

Locate your Power Unit, mask, neck pad and harness. Make sure the mask and neck pad are of the size that you used for your last successful fit test. Fit a mask to CleanSpace2 Examine the mask AirClips. One is open and one is closed. Find the one that is closed. Seen from above it is on the right-hand side as shown in Figure 4.

Familiarize yourself with the Adjust Buttons and the Mask Release Buttons. See Figure 9. Figure 9 - Mask Release Button and Adjust Button Fit the Harness Locate the strap on the harness that is made from loop-pile material.

Figure 11 - Harness Front Strap Make sure to use the same settings on the harness as you used in your last successful fit test. Fit a Neck Pad The pad is fitted with two strips of hook fabric. Press these strips against the matching strips of loop fabric on the Power Unit.

Install the PAF-0057 Pre-Filter (Optional) If using your CleanSpace2 with the PAF-1037 high-capacity filter, you have the option of installing the PAF- 0057 Pre-Filter. To do this, simply stretch the Pre-Filter over the installed PAF-1037 filter as shown in Figure 14 and Figure 15.

STEP 5 – CHECK MASK SEAL It is essential to do a Seal Check every time you wear a CleanSpace2. Locate PAF-1009, the red Seal Check Cap. Fit the Seal Check Cap over the exhalation valve in the mask. The Cap should snap into place.
Page 19
tighten the mask. To tighten the mask, place one hand against the back of the Power Unit and the other over the front of the mask. Push the Power Unit forwards and the mask back, tightening the fit. You will hear a series of clicks as the mask is tightened.
The CleanSpace2 is now ready to be re-donned for use. Re-don the respirator, repositioning the harness on your head and tighten the mask bellows so the mask feels the same on your face as prior to fitting the Steri-Plus Exhalation Filter. Ensure the mask fits snugly and that there are no leaks by feeling around the perimeter of the mask for leakage while exhaling firmly.
14. Working in Noisy Environments In most noisy environments the CleanSpace2 alarms are still clearly audible to the wearer. But if there is a chance that you will not hear the alarms, you must take the following extra precautions. •...

Remove the filter. Check that the area where the filter sits is clean. If necessary wipe it with a clean cloth or a CleanSpace Cleaning Wipe. Fit a new filter. Swing the filter cover back into closed position and hold it firmly against the body of the respirator with one hand.
Page 23
If using PAF-1108 HE + Nuisance filter, check that it is the right way up, with the air openings at the bottom. (The “CleanSpace” text on the cover of the filter must be the right way up when you are wearing the respirator).

ASSEMBLE THE STERI-PLUS EXHALATION FILTER If using your CleanSpace2 respirator with the PAF-1037 filter, you have the option of installing the Steri-Plus Exhalation Filter. To assemble the Steri-Plus, insert a new filter to the outer case, making sure that the filter tabs are positioned in the case slots to hold the filter in place (see Figure 35Error! Reference source not found.).

Doing so may result in injury or death. WARNING 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.

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.
We recommended that you clean your respirator after every use. The mask, blower (“Power Unit”), neck pad and harness need to be cleaned separately. Disassemble the mask, neck pad and harness from the Power Unit before cleaning. CleanSpace Cleaning Wipes are recommended as a simple and effective method of cleaning the Power Unit and masks.
Use a gentle brush to remove any dirt, grit or fibers from the loop-pile material attached to the Power Unit. • Using CleanSpace Cleaning Wipes, wipe down the outside of the Power Unit. The Power Unit can also be cleaned with a damp cloth. •...
