What You’ll Need: • Mild soap or MSA-approved cleaning solution (like Confidence Plus®) • Warm water (maximum 120°F / 49°C) • Soft cloth or sponge • Soft-bristle brush (optional) • Clean lint-free towel or air-drying station • PPE (gloves, eye protection) for handling contaminated equipment • Disinfectant (optional, but recommended especially after potential exposure to pathogens) ________________________________________ 🧼 Step-by-Step Cleaning Instructions: 1. Disassemble the Mask • Remove any electronic components such as the voice amplifier or HUD (Heads-Up Display). • Disconnect the second-stage regulator if attached. • Take off the head harness if necessary. 2. Pre-rinse • Rinse the mask thoroughly with warm water to remove debris and dirt. 3. Wash • Mix mild soap or Confidence Plus® cleaning solution with warm water in a sink or basin. • Submerge the facepiece and gently scrub with a soft cloth or brush, paying close attention to: o The inside of the mask o Exhalation valve o Face seal o Lens area (avoid scratching) 4. Rinse Again • Rinse thoroughly with clean warm water to remove all soap or disinfectant residue. • Ensure no cleaning solution remains, especially around the valves and seals. 5. Disinfect (Optional but Recommended) • If disinfection is needed (e.g., after exposure to bloodborne pathogens), use an MSA-approved disinfectant or follow OSHA guidelines. • Allow appropriate contact time before rinsing again. 6. Dry • Shake off excess water. • Pat dry with a clean lint-free towel or allow to air dry in a clean, non-contaminated area. • Avoid direct sunlight or high heat during drying. 7. Inspect the Mask • Check for damage, cracks, or deformities in the facepiece, straps, valves, and lens. • Ensure all parts are clean and functional. 8. Reassemble • Reattach any components that were removed, including electronics and regulators. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Do Not: • Use alcohol, solvents, or abrasive cleaners. • Use a dishwasher or washing machine. • Use hot water above 120°F (49°C). • Store or use the mask while still wet.
