Clean Air 72 03 00.01 Protective Face Shield UniMask
Important For your safety please read and remember the following instructions before use. If you have any questions, please contact the manufacturer or your distributor. Keep the manual for future reference.
Introduction
- CleanAIR® UniMask is adapted for use with powered air-purifying respirators (hereinafter PAPR) CleanAIR or with continuous flow compressed air line breathing apparatuses (hereinafter “compressed air systems CleanAIR*) and thus protects the respiratory tract.
- The overpressure created in the headtop prevents contaminants from entering the breathing zone. This ensures the wearer’s comfort, even with long-term use. Breathing remains easy because the user does not have to overcome the resistance of the filter.
- UniMask provides respiratory protection and face protection against particles with high speed and high energy impact.
- If not sure about the suitability of the hood for a specific application, consult with the manufacturer or your supplier!

Control and spare parts replacement
Adjusting the airflow direction
- By sliding the slider control knobs on the bottom front of the mask you can adjust the airflow in three ways (airflow on the visor from the top, on the visor from the bottom, and airflow toward the mouth).

Attaching the new face seal
- Start by placing the face seal grooves into the grooves of the shield on the left side, making sure the triangular indicators on both parts match.
- Hold the parts in the right position with one hand while pushing the parts in the right position with the other hand, starting on the top, followed by the bottom, and finally the opposite side.
- Make sure the seal fits correctly onto the shield.
