2 INSTRUCTION
2 INSTRUCTION
Use the
Savage A40 PAPR System
during welding in unconfined spaces, strictly in accordance with this Instruction manual and the instructions supplied with the corresponding helmets.
Do not use the unit:
• When the blower unit is switched off, little or no respiratory protection is to be expected.
Rapid build-up of carbon dioxide and depletion of oxygen may occur in the head unit.
• In an atmosphere that poses immediate health or hygiene hazard and/or has less than
19.5% oxygen content, or contains unknown substances.
• In confined spaces or unventilated areas such as tanks, pipes, and canals.
• Near flames and/or sparks.
• In areas with danger of explosion.
• If the blower unit malfunctions. In areas with high winds.
To ensure the unit is functioning properly please do not:
• Alter or modify in any way.
• Touch any of the moving parts.
• Allow water or other liquids to enter the impeller chamber, the filter, or the battery compartment.
Make sure blower moving parts are not blocked and are free to move. Do not modify or alter the unit or the particle filter in any way. Protect the unit from ingress of water or other liquids, in particular the motor, the fan, the filter, and the battery.
Make sure that the headpiece fits perfectly. The efficiency of the system is only sufficient in this case. The protective factor of the complete system is reduced if the seal of the headpiece is not fitted properly, for example, if long hair or facial hair is extending into the seal line. Correct respiratory protection will not be provided if any part of the equipment is modified in any way.
Position the blower unit in a way that minimizes the risk of the head unit hose becoming caught up during use. At high elevations, the pressure in the device may become negative.
Leave the contaminated area immediately and if needed, seek medical advice if:
• The Manufacturer’s Minimum Design Flow (MMDF) warning alarm sounds.
• Breathing becomes difficult.
• Dizziness or distress occurs.
• Any part of the system becomes damaged.
• Airflow into the head unit decreases or stops.
• Contaminant can be smelled or tasted inside the head unit.
• In the unlikely event of an allergic reaction to the material of the headpiece.

5.3
Installing the battery / charging
1.
Slide the battery towards the back of the filtration unit.
2.
Make sure that the battery is locked in position.
3.
The battery can be charged on the filtration unit or separately.
0-5596
The battery is partially charged when delivered. It must be charged at 100%
(4 bars) before the first use. It is recommended to charge the batteries at
100% before each use.
The charger must not be used for anything else than it was designed for. Do not charge the battery in a potentially explosive area. The charger must only be used indoors.
The charger regulates the charge automatically. Once the battery is fully charged, it will maintain it at 100% (floating charge). The charge time is 3 to
4 hours.
The battery will discharge itself after long storage periods. Always charge the battery if the device was stored for more than 15 days.
New batteries or batteries that have been stored for more than three months need to be fully charged and discharged at least twice in a row to reach the nominal/rated charge capacity.
