For use with compressed-air supply REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERATION: The following items are required or recommended for operation, but are not included with this respirator: • Source of Grade D (or better quality) breathing air providing 7 to 15 cfm at 65 to 100 psi (if Clem-Cool or CCT is used, increase cfm to 20) • A breathing air filter (such as the Clemco CPF) to remove oil, mois- ture, particles, and odors • Carbon monoxide monitor and alarm (such as the Clemco CMS-2) • 3/8-inch x 50-feet approved respi- rator hose from the breathing air filter to the helmet connection (stock no. 04415) Protective clothing, gloves, and shoes suitable for a heavy construc- tion site Primary hearing and eye protection DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION The Apollo 20 is a single-shell construction helmet supported by the DLX comfortfit suspension system. The operator’s head is surroundedwith comfortable padding. A chin strap holds the helmet in place. The rectangular window provides a clear field of view. An inner fixed lens and one middle lens seal out dust and abrasive. Up to three lightweight, disposable outer lenses, held in place by a hinged frame, protect the middle lens from pitting. A flexible breathing tube between the valve and the helmet allows free movement of the operator’s head. This tube contains specially-formulated sound-deadening materials that DESIGN ADVANTAGES • DLX comfort-fit suspension (optional web suspension included) • Box-front window features economi- cal replacement lenses • Sound-attenuating, air-distribution channel • Lightweight construction • Molded-in carrying handle. • Allows operator to wear supplemen- tary hearing and primary eye protec- tion. APPROVALS AND CERTIFICATIONS: • NIOSH-approved Type CE continu- ous flow supplied-air respirator • NIOSH approval no. TC-19C-339 • OSHA Assigned Protection Factor: 1000 x PEL for hazardous sub- stances • ANSI Z89.1-2003 Type 1, Class G protective helmet (hard hat) • ANSI Z 3.19: Noise Reduction Rating — 8 dB OVERVIEW The Apollo 20 HP is designed for use with compressed air systems. It meets OSHA standards for respiratory protection and noise limitations. The Apollo 20’s full-helmet design and heavy-duty cape protect the blast operator’s head, neck, shoulders and chest from rebounding abrasive. help the respirator comply with 80 dBA maximum noise level while allowing free air flow. For maximum protection while blasting, the operator should wear ear plugs or other suitable hearing protection and safety glasses or goggles. The air enters the helmet at the rear, travels through a sound-attenuating distribution system at the top, and circulates about the operator’s face. The incoming air maintains positive pressure inside the helmet, so exhaled air exits via the knit collar. Maintaining positive pressure inside the helmet helps keep out potentially harmful dust and abrasive. IMPORTANT: For safe, efficient blasting, read and follow the owner’s manual (21990) and seek training for everyone who will use this equipment.
