Step-by-step instructions with accompanying pictures for donning and doffing SALUS HC are below. Leverage this

document to create and modify a donning and doffing reference to accommodate your standard operating procedures. Please refer to

1.

Closely inspect the entire PAPR (Powered Air-Purifying Respirator) system paying attention to 
component connection points for wear and damage. If parts are missing or damaged, replace them with
only SALUS HC replacement parts before proceeding. Ensure a battery is installed and has a sufficient 
charge.

2.

Adequate air flow check. With the blower motor OFF, press and hold the power button for ten (10) 
seconds until there is an audible sound. This audible sound indicates that there is adequate airflow to 
create positive pressure inside the hood.

3.

With SALUS HC completely assembled, place the PAPR over your head and onto 
your shoulders. Balance the carriage front to back for a comfortable fit.

4.

Turn the blower motor unit On. Press the button one time to turn the blower motor unit ON. The 

blower unit automatically turns ON at the High-speed setting after approximately 3 - 4 seconds. Press the 
button again to toggle from High-Speed and Low-Speed.
