General Information

Bullard Free-Air Pumps MUST be located in a clean air
environment where at least Grade D breathable air is assured
at all times. Bullard Free-Air Pumps transfer ambient air from
a clean air location, where at least Grade D breathable air
can be assured at all times, to workers wearing Type C or CE
continuous flow airline respirator hoods or tight fitting half or
full face masks. Only NIOSH approved respirators should be
used with this pump.
The ambient air is filtered through a medium efficiency inlet air
filter and a carbofine outlet filter before entering the respirator's
air supply hose.
Bullard Free-Air Pumps are oil-less and have rotary carbon
vanes. They produce no carbon monoxide, oil vapors, oil mist
or moisture. They do not require expensive carbon monoxide
monitors, high temperature alarms or other standard supplied
air pressure monitoring equipment. No calibration is required.

NOTE
Industrial High Pressure Compressed Air (psig)
determines horsepower of air motor which directly
affects output air pressure and output air volume coming
from the Free Air Pump Compressor that is sent to the
Respirator System.
