3. BREATHING AIR PRESSURE TABLE in your respirator user manual defines the air pressure ranges necessary to provide the respirator with a volume of air that falls within the required range of 6 15 cubic feet per minute cfm or 170 425 liters per minute Ipm See 30 CFR Part II Subpart J 11 124 7 Be sure you understand the information in the BREATHING AIR PRESSURE TABLE before using the respirator Air Supply Hose To maintain your Bullard respirator s NIOSH approval use only approved Bullard V20 Series hose s in lengths of 25 300 feet between the Frigitron s quick disconnect fitting and the point of attachment to the hose Bullard quick disconnect fittings MUST be used to connect V20 hose lengths together Use of any other air supply hose voids the NIOSH approval on the entire respirator assembly and could reduce the airflow to the respirator possibly resulting in serious injury or death to the respirator wearer A WARNING Before connecting the Frigitron 2000 to the respirator be sure the breathing air at least meets the minimum Grade D requirements See Air Quality section on front page Frigitron 2000 Cool Climate Control Tube Instruction Sheet aSullard Preparation and Use of the Frigitron 2000 1 In an uncontaminated atmosphere screw the end of the breathing tube to the fitting on the climate control device Tighten hose connectors firmly 2 Lace the belt supplied with the Cool Tube through the belt brac
