1. Objectives, eld of application and
conditions for use
The abrasive blasting helmet is used in a working environment where protection of
the respiratory organs, face and head is required against ricocheting medium, particles,
mists, vapours and gases.
The abrasive blasting helmet should be connected via CONTRACOR® Breathing Air
Hose to the compressed air system which supplies breathing air according to EN 12021.
The required airow can be adjusted on the regulator. The integral airow indicator displays
whether sufcient air is passing into the helmet. The disposable glass visor tted against the
helmet window can be removed when polluted or damaged. To remove, open the frame.
1.1. Limitation of usage
• The system is not suitable for working in areas with: intense heat radiation, open res,
risk of explosion or if extremely high concentrations of hazardous matter, causing
immediate health risks, are present.
• If the ambient temperature is below the freezing point, the humidity in the compressed
air circuit can result in icing-up of coupling or regulator, blocking the further supply of
air. In such a case it is necessary to ensure that the humidity content in the compressed
air (at atmospheric pressure) is less then 50 mg/m3, and in accordance with EN 12021.
Standard compressed air circuits do usually not comply with this requirement.
• If applicable, the letter «F» indicates that the helmet and the compressed air supply
hose can be used in the ammability danger zone.
WARNING!
Abrasive blasting helmet CONTRACOR® ASPECT should be connected only
to a compressed air system that delivers breathing air according to the
European norm EN 12021.
When using the helmet in non-EU countries all local norms and laws for the
breathing air supply have to be observed.
CONTRACOR®ASPECT Art. 10130830 5
WARNING!
When using the system on a portable compressed air supply system, it is
envisioned that the system will be used with a helper, with the appropriate
instructions for the warning device.
Note: When using hearing protectors or noise reduction equipment, the
audibility of the warnings is reduced.
User Note: A maximum of one user may use the portable air supply unit
with the appropriate warning instructions on the unit.
• It is not allowed to use oxygen or oxygen enriched air.
• Couplings and hose connections must be kept clean during connecting and disconnecting.
• The maximum length of the compressed air supply hose is 40 metres and the
maximum pressure is 40 Bar and the hose is anti-static. The maximum temperature
is 60°C. The maximum number of compressed air supply hoses, connected to each
other, may not exceed 2.
• The working pressure must be at least 2,5 Bar (maximum 5.0 Bar).
• Because of extreme human effort, it is possible that a temporary negative pressure
occurs in the abrasive blasting helmet, resulting in a reduction of the protection factor of
the system.
• Air speeds in excess of 2 m/s can affect the protection factor of the complete apparatus.
• The ambient usage temperature should be between the limits of –10 °C and +60 °C.
• When combined use is made of the compressed air, for both the abrasive blasting
helmet and the air tools (e.g. paint spray), it is necessary to ensure that, at the
maximum air consumption of the air tools, sufcient air is allowed to ow into the
abrasive blasting helmet. If necessary, the working pressure can be adjusted.
• The system may be used solely by trained personnel, who are also fully aware of the
hazards applicable to the work being carried out.
• The Abrasive Blasting Helmet has no EN 397 approval regarding safety helmets.

1.2. Prior to use.
Make sure that the compressor is placed in such a way that it cannot suck in any
dangerous matter and the air inlet cannot be obstructed, and that the compressor is switched
on. Check whether the correct operating pressure is set and clean air according to EN 12021
is supplied. If not, use an approved lter unit. Check if the compressor has been equipped with
a suitable and adjustable pressure relief valve and has been inspected and maintained timely.
Ensure that all components have been cleaned and inspected as described in § 2, 3 and 4.
Adjust the working pressure on the breathing air supplied system to a max. of 5 Bar.
Connect the abrasive blasting helmet via CONTRACOR® Breathing Air Hose to the
compressed air system. Adjust the headband to the correct length (g. 1). Fit the helmet on
your head and buckle the belt.

WARNING!
Risk of possible connections with couplings, connected to other piping
systems that carry gases other than respiratory air; A risk assessment
by the user against possible dangerous connections in the workplace is
necessary;
CONTRACOR®ASPECT Art. 10130830 7
1.3. During use.
Adjust the air volume according to requirements. The integrated air ow indicator
warns the user if insufcient air is being supplied. The airow indicator has been installed
in such a way that the yellow pennant will not be visible when the amount of air is sufcient
and it will only function when it is positioned vertically (g. 2). For safety reasons, the
regulator cannot be closed entirely. Depart the working area immediately if there is an
interruption in the air supply.
Ensure that the compressed air supply hose cannot be trapped, causing interference
with the air supply or preventing a rapid departure from the work area.
The abrasive blasting helmet will not decrease environmental sounds. Therefore
supplementary hearing protection must be used.

1.4. After use.
After leaving the working area, unbuckle the belt, take off the helmet and disconnect
the air supply hose. Using a brush or a cloth, remove loose residue and dirt from the
components. Clean and inspect the components according to the instructions given in
paragraph 2 and 3. When connecting and disconnecting, take care that no pollution enters
the open hose connections.

2. Cleaning and disinfecting.
After each session clean the abrasive blasting helmet, using a mixture of water and a
mild detergent. Subsequently, rinse thoroughly with clean water. (Do not use any solvents).
The face collar or neck bib can be washed in the washing machine, using a soft detergent
at 30°C. Using a disinfectant, clean the inner surfaces of the abrasive blasting helmet.
Refer to the instructions given by the manufacturer.
For reasons of hygiene, the same person should preferably wear the abrasive blasting
helmet. Using compressed air, blow clean the coupling and the regulator. Finally, using a
dry cloth, dry all the metal components, to avoid corrosion. When cleaning, take care not to
inhale hazardous matter that is released during the cleaning.

supplied manual documentation.
After replacing the components carry out a functional check.
Functional check: After cleaning, disinfecting or exchanging components check
the functioning of the system. Inspect all essential components for damage or pollution
and, if required replace these with original spare parts. If the yellow pennant of the airow
indicator shows insufcient air in the abrasive blasting helmet, although the pressure is
correctly adjusted, this could indicate that a blockage has occurred in the compressed
air hose, coupling or silencer. During this check, hold the abrasive blasting helmet in the
vertical (normal working) position.
Checking hose system for leakages: Test air supply hose and coupling parts
manually on pull force. Connect abrasive blasting helmet to the compressed air system and
adjust the supply pressure. Air supply hose and couplings may not give leak sounds.
