The CleanSpace EX Power Unit is a powered air purifying respirator (PAPR) when worn together with the following compatible items:
- A CleanSpace Full Face Mask (PAF-1106, PAF-1014), OR
- A CleanSpace EX Half Mask (PAF-0064, PAF-1062, PAF-0063) & Head Harness (PAF-0073), and
- A range of CleanSpace particulate and gas/vapour filters.
It is intrinsically safe and suitable for use in certain ignitable or potentially explosive atmospheres where there is a risk of explosion.
Suitable for environments which require respiratory protection against airborne biohazards, particulates, dust, gas and vapours.
IMPORTANT: The CleanSpace Full Face Mask is intrinsically safe approved for IECEx Ex ib IIIB T150 Db only. Check the site requirements for Intrinsically Safe approvals.

Applications:
Suitable for environments which require respiratory protection against airborne biohazards, particulates, dust, gas, and vapours.
Examples: Welding, Woodworking, Manufacturing, Smelting, Construction, Transportation, Recycling Plants, Emergency Services, Mining, Agriculture, Processing Plants, Grinding, Laboratories.
Suitable intrinsically safe certified operations include:
- Underground mining requiring “Very High” equipment protection level (Ma) and level “ia” ignition protection to Methane, where constant risk of presence exists.
- Propane and Ethylene gas environment requiring “High” equipment protection Level (Gb) and level “ib” ignition protection, where the presence of such gases is likely to occur (Zone 1).
- Combustible Flyings and non-conductive dust environment requiring “High” equipment protection Level (Db) and level “ib” ignition protection, where the presence of such dusts is likely to occur (Zone 1).
CleanSpace EX respirators are IP 66 rated and are suitable for asbestos removal and chemical applications where decontamination showers are used.
Limitations
CleanSpace respirators are air filtering, fan assisted, positive pressure systems and designed to be worn in environments where there is sufficient oxygen to breathe safely. Do not use CleanSpace respirators in immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH) atmospheres, to protect against gases/vapours that cannot be filtered or in oxygen enriched or deficient atmospheres.
