How do I clean and sanitize a Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR)? (Back to Top)
Users should always refer to their institution’s standard operating procedures for cleaning surfaces with blood or bodily fluid contamination.
Dispose of the pre-filter, filter, and filter cartridge if there is blood or bodily fluid contact.
Helmet – We suggest the use of Quaternary Ammonia, Bleach, or Alcohol based wipes for wiping down all external surfaces other than the pre-filter, filter, and comfort strips.
Lens – We suggest the use of Quaternary Ammonium Bleach, or Alcohol based wipes. These materials will not adversely affect the clarity of the lens.
Rayon Cuff (gray) – This cuff can be washed like other hospital garments (i.e. scrubs) up to 10 times or until visibly worn.
Disposable Cuff (white) and DLC – Dispose of after one time use. In emergency situations these cuffs may be cleaned with Quaternary Ammonia, Bleach, or Alcohol based soaking solutions and dried.
Battery & Power Cord – We suggest the use of Quaternary Ammonia, Bleach, or Alcohol based wipes. They will not adversely affect the function of the battery and power cord.
