8. Clean and inspect the NORTH protective blasting helmet according to the instructions. Completely disconnect the hose coupling. Remove the original regulator from the hose. Disconnect the original hose clamp, remove the clip from the strap and store with the original regulator. Place the VORTEX air conditioner clip on the belt (Fig. 6). Then insert the clip on the tape down (Fig. 7) Set the working pressure on the AFU to a minimum of 4.5 bar. Connect the VORTEX air conditioner with a compressed air hose to the filter system. Attach the hose to the desired outlet. Red outlet (Fig. 10- A) means heated "breathing" air, cooled air flows through the blue outlet (Fig. 10- B). If the air supply is interrupted, leave the work area immediately and take off the protective blasting helmet. Make sure the VORTEX air conditioner is properly and securely strapped and that the "breathing" air supply hose is not damaged or leaking. Also check that the hose is not broken anywhere and is secured against accidental release from the couplings. Make sure that the air supply hose is not caught anywhere, which could cause an interruption of the air supply or prevent a quick exit from the work area. VORTEX air conditioning does not reduce ambient noise. The use of additional earplugs is mandatory. It is quite normal for some air to escape from the air vent. Hold the body of the air conditioner in the correct direction according to the desired heated/ cooled air and put the securing clip on the hose (Fig. 10-2). Place the clip approximately halfway up the colored mouthpiece. Use your thumb and forefinger to secure the clasp firmly. Make sure that the hoses from the protective jet helmet and the VORTEX air conditioner are fully compatible. Make sure that the VORTEX air conditioner is correctly and securely secured to the strap and that the "breathing" air supply hose is not damaged anywhere and does not leak air. Also check that the hose is not broken anywhere and is secured against accidental release from the couplings. See the "Maintenance and Inspection" section. Follow the relevant information for the NORTH protective blasting helmet in use. See the "Maintenance and Inspection" section. At first commissioning, continue test operation for at least 3 minutes. Before use Make sure the compressor is switched on and set to the correct working pressure. Check that the compressor is regularly inspected and maintained. VORTEX air conditioning connection Disconnect the air pressure hose from the connection to the NORTH protective blasting helmet. During use Adjust the amount of air as needed (Fig. 9). The desired temperature of the "breathing" air is reached within a short time. An air flow indicator in the blasting helmet will warn if the air flow is interrupted. A worn and/ or dirty compressor supplies sound- cleaned compressed air, which is then insufficiently filtered by the filter! Make sure that the compressor does not suck in dangerous substances at the compressor inlet. -8- Machine Translated by Google

7. - Too hot or cold air, long connection hoses and extreme ambient temperatures can reduce the efficiency of the VORTEX air conditioner. - - The system may only be used by a person familiar with the operator who is fully aware of the possible consequences of mishandling the device. - - All restrictions regarding the NORTH protective helmet used remain - - The system is not approved for operations with intense heat radiation, open fire, risk of explosion, or in places with a high level of danger and a necessary high level of health protection. - valid. Use - It is not allowed to use oxygen and oxygen- enriched air. Safe use of the VORTEX air conditioner is exclusively guaranteed when using NORTH products. Always follow the instructions in this user manual and the user manual of the selected NORTH safety helmet. This will ensure user safety and optimal use of the VORTEX air conditioner. -7- The maximum length of the connecting hose is 40 meters and the maximum permissible compressed air pressure is 7 bar. The minimum permissible pressure is 4.5 bar. Use and conditions of use: VORTEX air conditioning allowing to reduce or increase the temperature of the flowing air by up to 20 °C, to improve the working conditions of the user. Replace the regulator of the selected protective blasting helmet from the company NORTH with a VORTEX air conditioner. The VORTEX air conditioner is used in a working environment where it is necessary to protect the respiratory organs, face and head against flying abrasive, pieces of material, dust, etc. Once the VORTEX air conditioner is connected to compressed air via a pressure hose, clean "breathing" air (meeting the standard EN 12021) passes through the red and blue exhaust. Connect the supply hose to one of the vents in the protective blasting helmet. The amount of flowing air can be adjusted using the built- in regulator. The air flow indicator in the blasting helmet indicates proper flow and patency into the blasting helmet. - - The ambient temperature should be between -10°C and +60°C. Restrictions on use: The VORTEX air conditioner can only be used with a protective blasting helmet equipped with an air connection patency indicator. When using one source for VORTEX air conditioning and another pneumatic source for steering (e.g. a jetting device), it is necessary to ensure that the maximum consumption of the pneumatic devices does not reduce the necessary amount of compressed air required for the protective helmet. Air pressure can be regulated. - If the free end is blocked, the flow of "breathing" air will be reduced, reduce the degree of cooling/ heating of the supplied air. - If the ambient temperature is below freezing, moisture in the compressed air can result in freezing in the connections or in the regulator and block the air flow. In these cases, it is necessary to reduce the humidity in the compressed air distribution (at atmospheric pressure) to less than 50 mg/ m3 , according to the EN 12021 standard. Common compressed air distributions do not meet these requirements. Practice quick disconnecting the device before first use. - Couplings and hose connections must be kept clean during connection and disconnection. Machine Translated by Google

9. Follow the relevant information for the NORTH protective blasting helmet in use. Cleaning and disinfection After each use, clean the outside of the VORTEX air conditioner with water and detergent (e.g. EW 80 by Tremonia Chemie, Dortmund). Then wipe it thoroughly with a clean cloth soaked in clean water. Do not use any solvents. Use compressed air to clean the couplings and regulator. Finally, wipe the entire unit thoroughly with a dry, clean cloth to prevent corrosion. When cleaning, be careful not to inhale dangerous substances that could be released during cleaning. Turning from cold "breathing" air to warm "breathing" air and vice versa. Function check After each cleaning, disinfection or replacement of any component, check the correct function. Once the air flow is correctly adjusted and the air flow indicator in the protective blasting helmet shows an insufficient amount of air, it is necessary to first eliminate the defect before use. During this test, hold the protective blasting helmet in the vertical (normal - working) position. Check all important parts for damage or contamination and replace with original spare parts if necessary. Follow the relevant information for the NORTH protective blasting helmet in use. Check the hoses for air leakage: Set the supplied compressed air pressure to 0.5 bar and connect the protective blasting helmet to the air filter system via the VORTEX air conditioner to the compressed air hose. Using suitable tools, remove the black air supply hose from the protective blasting helmet. Then use soapy water with a brush to apply this water to the hose. Soap bubbles will indicate cracks in the hose. Disconnect the compressed air hose. Clean and inspect the VORTEX air conditioner as described in the paragraph using your thumb and forefinger. Remove the hose from the hose nozzle. Turn the VORTEX air conditioner by 180° so that you have the desired output upwards. The red mouthpiece (Fig. 8- A) of the regulator is the heated air and the cooled air flows through the blue mouthpiece (Fig. 8- B). Hold the body of the air conditioner in the correct direction according to the desired heated/ cooled air and put the securing clip on the hose (Fig. 10-2). Place the clip approximately halfway up the colored mouthpiece. Use your thumb and forefinger to secure the clasp firmly. Connect the compressed air hose. Check hose connections for air leaks. Check the correct operation of the system. See the "Maintenance and Inspection" section. Follow the relevant information for the NORTH protective blasting helmet in use. Maintenance and inspection Maintenance As a result of intensive use and the need to clean the compressed air distribution system, it can happen that after a certain period of time the silencers can become clogged with oil and not dirt. The silencers need to be replaced soon. See chapter "Spare parts". You can replace the filters by unscrewing the filters using the appropriate screwdriver. Cleaning and Disinfection' and 'Maintenance and Inspection'. Loosen the hose clamp After use After leaving the work environment, loosen the belt, remove the protective blasting helmet and disconnect the air pressure hose. Clean and check the components according to the "Cleaning and Disinfection" and "Maintenance and Inspection" chapters. After disconnection and often with subsequent connections, make sure that no dirt has gotten into the hose and connectors. After replacing the components, perform a function check. „ -9- Machine Translated by Google
