Decontamination and cleaning
After working in a contaminated environment, the SE-RDA unit, adapter and respirator
may require decontamination to prevent contamination of clean areas and prevent
contamination of and/or injury to the user and other personnel.
Decontamination procedures should be developed as part of the organisation’s respirator
program and should be appropriate to the hazards involved.
When decontaminating, consider the following:
•
The SE-RDA is water-resistant. It is NOT waterproof. Never submerge the unit in
water.
•
Do not remove the respirator from the face nor disconnect the SR100/200
adapter from the unit during decontamination.
•
After removing the respirator, do not allow direct water streams inside the
facepiece. Water may enter the opening of the pressure tube and affect
measurement accuracy.
•
The vent port filter should always be replaced after decontamination in a shower.
•
During decontamination, water may collect under the lip of the battery cover.
When removing the battery cover after decontamination, take care to wipe away
excess water and prevent it from entering the battery chamber.
