5 SCOTT HEALTH AND SAFETY PROMASK 25 FULL FACEPIECE RESPIRATOR USE INSTRUCTIONS DESCRIPTION The SCOTT HEALTH AND SAFETY Promask 25 full facepiece respirator consists of a full facepiece used in conjunction with a pair of filtration elements for protection against airborne gases, vapors, or particulates. The facepiece is available in two sizes with several options including different head harnesses and lens treatments. Proper fitting and training is required prior to use of the respirator. This respirator, when properly used, seals against the skin of the user s face and removes harmful contaminants from the inhaled air by chemical reaction or mechanical filtration. Exhaled air leaves the facepiece through the exhalation valve. The Inhalation Valves act as check valves to prevent the flow of exhaled air through the filtration elements. A voicemitter is provided to facilitate communication while the facepiece is being worn. This respirator is designed to work only with SCOTT 742 series of filter elements which use a quarter-turn mounting system. Various filter elements are available containing sorbents for the removal of gases or vapors. Some elements also feature a built-in P100 particulate filter for the removal of solid and liquid aerosols at a minimum efficiency of 99.97%. The purchaser of this respirator is responsible for determining the atmospheric contaminant present and for selecting the appropriate filter elements. This respirator is intended for entry into and work in atmospheres which are not oxygen deficient and which contain contaminants with adequate warning properties in concentrations less than those immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH). It may be used for ESCAPE ONLY from atmospheres which contain concentrations of contaminants which exceed the immediately dangerous to life and health concentration provided the correct filtration elements is used and the atmosphere is not oxygen deficient. WARNING THE FAILURE TO CHOOSE A RESPIRATOR EQUIPPED WITH FILTRATION ELEMENTS SUITABLE FOR THE CONTAMINANT(S) IN THE ATMOSPHERE OR LIKELY TO BE RELEASED IN THE ATMOSPHERE MAY RESULT IN THE RESPIRATOR PROVIDING LITTLE OR NO PROTECTION AGAINST THE CONTAMINATED ATMOSPHERE AND LEAD TO SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. 1

6 WARNING THE INFORMATION BELOW IS MEANT TO SUPPLEMENT, NOT REPLACE, THE INSTRUCTIONS, TRAINING, SUPERVISION, MAINTENANCE, AND OTHER ELEMENTS OF YOUR ORGANIZED RESPIRATORY PROTECTION PROGRAM. FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. GENERAL LIMITATIONS ON USE The following general limitations are IN ADDITION TO AND DO NOT REPLACE THE SPECIFIC LIMITATION ON EACH DIFFERENT RESPIRATOR. 1. The protection offered by this respirator depends upon the quality of the facepiece fit, the condition of the respirator and the selection of the proper filtration elements. Filtration elements are labeled with the name of the specific gas or vapor they are designed to protect against (for example, chlorine in air or ammonia in air) or with the general class of contaminant they are designed to protect against (for example, acid gas in air or organic vapor in air). When choosing filtration elements for a general class of contaminant, the user must realize that the length of time the respirator will provide protection can vary greatly for individual substances which are members of a general class. Assuming that the respirator is properly fitted, in good condition, free from leaks, etc. and has the proper filtration elements for the contaminant present, the length of time the respirator will provide protection also depends upon the conditions of use. The conditions of use include but are not limited to: the concentration of contaminant(s) in the atmosphere; the temperature and the humidity of the ambient atmosphere; any previous use of the filtration elements; the elapsed time since the filtration elements are placed in service; the psychological state of the wearer; the level of physical activity of the wearer. In addition to the conditions of use mentioned above, the length of time filtration elements may be used to protect against atmospheres containing certain substances may be controlled by government regulations. The user must be familiar with these government regulations and must strictly adhere to them. Consult the RESPIRATOR APPROVAL LABEL section located in the centerfold of this manual. The RESPIRATOR APPROVAL LABEL lists the components required to assemble an approved respirator and gases and/or particulates that each respirator protects against. The RESPIRATOR APPROVAL LABEL also lists precautions that the user must take when using the respirator. Additional copies of the RESPI- 2

7 RATOR APPROVAL LABEL are available from your SCOTT distributor or by calling Scott Health and Safety at This respirator is intended to be used ONLY by persons who have been prefitted with the respirator (see FACEPIECE FITTING section of this manual). 3. MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE FILTRATION ELEMENTS SELECTED ARE THE CORRECT ONES REQUIRED FOR THE HAZARD. Filtration elements selected for protection against airborne particulates, gases and vapors must be used in accordance with instructions and warnings shown on filtration elements labels. Refer to the RESPIRATOR AP- PROVAL LABEL section for respirator description and use. DO NOT USE THIS RESPIRATOR IN ATMOSPHERES CONTAINING UN- KNOWN SUBSTANCES. 4. User MUST be instructed and trained in the proper use of this respirator and recognize its limitations. 5. DO NOT USE IN OXYGEN DEFICIENT ATMOSPHERES. Filtration elements do not supply oxygen. 6. This respirator MUST NOT be used for fire fighting. 7. Read, be familiar with, and UNDERSTAND all instructions and warnings packaged with, or attached to, each type of filtration elements. 8. The facepiece must be well fitted and functioning properly. This respirator MUST NOT be worn when conditions such as growth of beard, sideburns, a skull cap that projects under the facepiece, or temple pieces on corrective glasses prevent a good facial seal. 9. This respirator is intended for entry into, or work in, only those atmospheres which are not oxygen deficient and are not immediately dangerous to life and health. This respirator may be used for ESCAPE ONLY from atmospheres which become immediately dangerous to life and health. 10. DO NOT use this respirator to enter or work in atmospheres containing unknown amounts of contaminants. When the concentration of the hazardous material in the atmosphere is not known, the atmosphere must be treated as immediately dangerous to life and health. 11. DO NOT use this respirator in environments containing substances which may irritate or poison through the skin UNLESS the appropriate actions such as the use of face shields, protective clothing, etc. have been taken to protect the body. 12. The use of CONTACT LENSES while wearing a respirator MAY BE FORBIDDEN or severely restricted by your respiratory protection program. If you are a contact lens user, notify your respiratory program administrator or employer and obtain specific limitations and instructions before using contact lenses with this respirator. 3

8 13. If you sense any of the following danger signals, IMMEDIATELY MOVE TO A FRESH AIR ENVIRONMENT. (Your filtration elements may be expended or abnormal conditions may be creating hazardous concentrations in the facepiece.) You smell or taste chemicals, or if your eyes, nose or throat become irritated; It becomes difficult to breathe; The air you are breathing becomes uncomfortably warm; You feel like vomiting or become dizzy. 14. Unless specifically defined by you respiratory protection program, DO NOT use this respirator for protection against gases or vapors that have poor warning properties. 15. When using this respirator in accordance with its label against substances which cannot be detected by taste, smell, etc., the administrative controls on the time of use established by your organized respiratory protection program MUST be adhered to. An organized respiratory protection program includes, but is not limited to, an evaluation and understanding of the hazards being protected against, proper training and surveillance of the user, and regular evaluation to determine respirator effectiveness, and a change out schedule. 16. DO NOT use this respirator for protection against gases or vapors which generate high heats of reaction with the sorbent materials in the filtration elements. 17. Follow established filtration media change schedules or observe ESLI to ensure that filtration media is replaced before breakthrough occurs. 4

9 FACEPIECE FITTING WARNING FAILURE TO FIT THE RESPIRATOR TO THE USER MAY RESULT IN LITTLE OR NO RESPIRATORY PROTECTION AND MAY EXPOSE THE WEARER TO SUBSTANCES WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. The protection offered by this respirator will be reduced by poor facepiece fit. Due to the natural variation in the human facial features, no one size or style of full facepiece can be guaranteed to fit all persons wishing to use the respirator. It is essential that respirator facepiece fit be checked before issuing or assigning a respirator to a user. Facepiece fitting also aids in learning the correct donning procedure. Use the DONNING and DOFFING PROCEDURES sections of this instruction when fitting users to the facepiece. There are two basic types of facepiece fit tests, Quantitative (QNFT) and Qualitative (QLFT). Quantitative Facepiece Testing (QNFT) is a procedure wherein the prospective respirator user wears a test respirator in a test atmosphere. Associated equipment measures the concentration of the challenge agent which enters the test respirator compared to the concentration of that agent in the air around the user to provide a numerical measure of the quality of facepiece fit. The test atmosphere can consist of air contaminated with a small amount of aerosol, vapor or gas, or with the proper instrumentation, the test atmosphere can be particles found in ordinary room air. Qualitative Facepiece Testing (QLFT) is also a procedure wherein the prospective respirator user wears a test respirator in a test atmosphere. The test atmosphere consists of a challenge agent in the form of an aerosol, gas, vapor or particulate. Qualitative Facepiece testing differs from Quantitative Facepiece testing in that the measure of protection is based on the sensory perception such as the smell or taste of the challenge agent by the test subject. Qualitative Fit Testing differs also in that no numerical measure of the quality of the facepiece fit is obtained, rather, this test procedure results in a statement by the test subject as to whether or not the test agent is detected. In the event that a satisfactory degree of facepiece fit cannot be obtained, a different facepiece size may be required to obtain a proper facial fit. A NEGATIVE PRESSURE LEAK TEST can be performed by the wearer each time the Promask 25 full facepiece respirator is used. SCOTT HEALTH AND SAFETY recommends that a NEGATIVE PRESSURE LEAK CHECK be conducted as part of the donning procedure each time a user dons a respirator. See the DONNING PROCEDURE section of this instruction for details of performing a NEGATIVE PRESSURE LEAK TEST. 5

10 USE OF THE RESPIRATOR 1. Examine the facepiece to be certain that it is complete and in serviceable condition. Be certain that all components are undamaged and in serviceable condition. 2. Attach corrective lens holder accessory, if applicable. ADDING CORRECTIVE LENS HOLDER 3. Examine the filtration elements to verify that they are the proper type for the contaminant(s) present, that their expiration date has not been exceeded and that they are undamaged and in serviceable condition. 4. Remove filtration elements from packaging and remove seals (if applicable) located at inlet and/or outlet of filtration elements. 5. Check that the facepiece inhalation valves are properly installed at filtration element connectors. 6. The filtration elements must be installed on both the left and right sides of the facepiece. To install: a) Place filter element on the adapter mount. Align the arrow on the filter with the raised tab on the mounting flange. Mount and filter element housing are keyed to fit together only one way. b) Turn the filter element clockwise one quarter turn until the arrow on the filter element aligns with the notch in the mounting flange. The element will snap in place when locked. c) Repeat with filter element on opposite side. INSTALLING FILTRATION ELEMENTS WARNING FAILURE TO VERIFY THAT BOTH FILTRATION ELEMENTS ARE PROPERLY INSTALLED ON THE FACEPIECE MAY RESULT IN LITTLE OR NO RESPIRATORY PROTECTION AND MAY EXPOSE THE WEARER TO SUBSTANCES THAT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. 6

11 7. Don respirator and perform NEGATIVE PRESSURE LEAK CHECK in accordance with the DONNING PROCEDURE section of this manual. WARNING FAILURE TO PERFORM A SATISFACTORY NEGATIVE PRESSURE LEAK CHECK MAY RESULT IN LITTLE OR NO RESPIRATORY PROTECTION AND MAY EXPOSE THE WEARER TO SUBSTANCES THAT CAN CAUSE SERI- OUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. 8. Replace filtration elements in accordance with an established changeout schedule. If no change-out schedule is available, SCOTT HEALTH AND SAFETY recommends changing the filtration elements daily (after one complete work shift) or when conditions of exhausted filtration elements are noticed, whichever occurs first. 9. When the facepiece is properly donned and adjusted, detection of contaminant odor or taste, or irritation of eye, nose or throat is evidence that the filtration elements may be exhausted. RETURN TO FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY, CHECK FACEPIECE FIT AND RE- PLACE FILTRATION ELEMENTS. Expended filtration elements should be disposed of properly in accordance with state or local guidelines for disposal of contaminated material. 10. Before removing the respirator, leave the contaminated area and/or be certain that respiratory protection is no longer required. Remove respirator in accordance with the DOFFING PROCEDURE section of this manual. 11. After use, check the condition of the facepiece assembly. Clean and replace any parts necessary as specified in INSPECTION, CLEAN- ING AND STORAGE section of this manual. 12. Repack the respirator in a container and store in a clean, dry location. 13. Respirators used for emergency escape purposes should be inspected at least every 30 days. See INSPECTION, CLEANING AND STOR- AGE section of this manual. 7

12 DONNING PROCEDURE The user must be familiar with and practice the prescribed donning and doffing procedures prior to respirator use. NOTE IF THE PROMASK 25 FULL FACEPIECE RESPIRATOR MASK IS BEING DONNED FOR THE FIRST TIME OR IF THIS IS THE FIRST TIME A PARTICULAR STYLE FACEPIECE IS TO BE USED, REFER TO THE AP- PROPRIATE STEPS IN THE FACEPIECE FITTING SECTION OF THIS INSTRUCTION. DURING TRAINING, THE USER SHOULD DETERMINE THE LEVEL OF TIGHTNESS OF THE HEAD HARNESS REQUIRED TO PROVIDE THE BEST SEAL AND GREATEST COMFORT. 1. Examine the facepiece to be certain it is complete and in serviceable condition. Check to see that the inhalation and exhalation valves are properly installed and operational. Check that the nose cup is properly positioned behind the faceseal chin pocket. 2. Assemble both filtration elements to facepiece (see INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE section of this manual). 3. Adjust the head straps to their full outward position. 4. Hold the facepiece in one hand and hold the center bottom of the head harness in the other hand. Some head harnesses are equipped with a strap at the base of the head net. 5. Place the facepiece on the face with chin properly located in the chin pocket while pulling the head harness over the top of the head. ADJUST HEAD STRAPS OUT 6. Tighten the neck straps by pulling the two lower strap ends toward the rear of the head. 7. Stroke the head harness net down the back of the head using one or both hands. Retighten the neck straps. CHIN FIRST-HARNESS OVER TOP OF HEAD 8 TIGHTEN STRAPS

13 8. Tighten the two temple straps. Adjust the temple straps by pulling the two temple strap ends toward the back of the head. Overtightening may cause discomfort. 9. Tighten the forehead strap by pulling the forehead strap toward the back of the head. 10. Retighten the neck straps if required. 11. PERFORM NEGATIVE PRESSURE LEAK CHECK; close off inlet side of both filtration elements by placing palms of hands or other airtight objects over inlets of filtration elements and inhale slowly, holding breath momentarily. Leakage shall not be present and the facepiece shall be drawn slightly to the face. 12. Should any leakage be noted, correct NEGATIVE PRESSURE LEAK TEST immediately by restroking head harness or head net to back and retighten neck, temple, and forehead straps. 13. If leakage is still detected, remove the respirator from service and tag for repair by authorized personnel. 14. To remove respirator, see DOFFING PROCEDURE section of this manual. DOFFING PROCEDURE To doff the facepiece (i.e.; Remove the facepiece and terminate respiratory protection) proceed as follows: 1. The respirator removal must be done in a fresh air environment. Leave the contaminated area and/or be certain that respiratory protection is no longer required. 2. Loosen all head harness straps to their full outward position. Head straps are loosened by moving the buckle release levers outward (away from the head) while maintaining head strap tension. Head strap tension can be maintained by pulling the facepiece away from the face or by pulling the head straps backwards. 3. Remove by pulling the facepiece up and back over the head. Care must be taken to prevent contamination of the interior portion of the facepiece during and after doffing. 4. If work period has been completed, respirator is to be cleaned (see INSPECTION, CLEANING AND STORAGE section of this manual). If work period has not been completed, interior of facepiece must be prevented from coming in contact with contaminants. 5. To resume use of the respirator, replace expended filtration elements with fresh replacement filtration elements and repeat the DONNING PROCEDURE, including the facepiece NEGATIVE PRESSURE LEAK CHECK. 9

14 INSPECTION, CLEANING AND STORAGE WARNING FAILURE TO PROPERLY CLEAN AND INSPECT THE FACEPIECE AND HAR- NESS MAY RESULT IN THE RESPIRATOR PROVIDING LITTLE OR NO PRO- TECTION AND MAY EXPOSE THE USER TO SUBSTANCES WHICH CAN CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. Always inspect and clean a new respirator before the first use. Respirators should be inspected, cleaned and disinfected after each use, typically after each work shift. Respirators NOT in regular use but placed in the work place or issued to individuals for emergency use MUST be inspected at least every 30 days. 1. Remove the filtration elements from the facepiece by turning counterclockwise one quarter turn. 2. Carefully wash the facepiece and harness in a warm water solution (110 F / 44 C) maximum) containing a mild detergent. A soft cloth may be used for scrubbing extremely dirty areas. NOTE A SOFT BRUSH MAY BE USED TO WASH THE HARNESSES AND ELAS- TOMERIC PORTION OF THE FACEPIECE. DO NOT USE BRUSH ON PLASTIC LENSES. 3. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. NOTE THE NOSE CUP IS DESIGNED TO BE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE FACEPIECE ASSEMBLY AND DOES NOT NEED TO BE DISASSEMBLED FOR CLEANING AND DISINFECTING. IN THE EVENT THAT THE NOSE CUP IS REMOVED FOR INSPECTION OR CLEANING, MAKE CERTAIN IT IS REASSEMBLED BEHIND THE CHIN POCKET OF THE FACESEAL 4. Disinfect the facepiece as follows, (disinfecting may not be necessary if the respirator is reused by the same worker): Spray 3 full pumps of Scott Multi-Wash Mini on the outside of the mask and 3 full pumps on the inside, wetting entire mask, including all rubber and plastic areas. Allow a 10 minute contact time to disinfect prior to rinsing. Under certain circumstances, decontamination of the respirator may be necessary as defined by your respiratory protection program. Follow the established procedures of your program for decontamination of respiratory equipment. 10

15 Thoroughly rinse with clean water using a spray bottle or gently running water. Shake excess water off of facepiece and then dry with a clean, lintfree cloth or gently blow dry with clean, dry breathing air of 30 psig or less pressure. Do not use shop air or any other air containing lubricants or moisture. Or hang upside down to completely dry. If a drying machine is used, be sure temperature does not exceed 110 F / 44 C and provides adequate air circulation. Take care not to damage facepiece. 5. Examine elastomeric portion of the facepiece for rips, tears, holes, deformation, cracks, stiffening or signs of aging. 6. Examine head straps and harness for breaks, cuts, frays, tears, loss of elasticity and missing or damaged hardware. 7. Examine filter inlets to verify proper condition of threads. 8. Examine the inhalation and exhalation valves for cracks or foreign substances which may not allow the valves to close completely. Verify that the valves are not distorted or missing. 9. Examine lens for cracks, excessive scratches or other possible damage. 10. Examine filtration elements for physical condition. Be sure expiration dates printed on the filtration elements label have not passed. Be sure not more than one year has passed since filtration elements were put in service. 11. Expended filtration elements should be disposed of properly in accordance with state or local guidelines for disposal of contaminated material. 12. Correct any deficiencies immediately or tag the respirator as in need of repair and remove from service.
