FAQs
What type of filters are compatible with the Scan Sm7501?

Are filters included with the respirator?
No, filters are sold separately. You must select and purchase the appropriate filters based on the specific hazards in your work environment.
How often should I clean the respirator?
The respirator should be cleaned after each use with mild soap and water. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
Can I wear this respirator if I have facial hair?

How do I perform a user seal check?
Cover the filter inlets with your hands and inhale gently. The mask should pull slightly towards your face and remain collapsed. If you detect any air leakage, readjust the mask and straps and repeat the check.
Can this respirator be used for protection against all gases and vapors?
The level of protection depends on the specific filter cartridge used. You must select a cartridge specifically designed for the type of gas or vapor you are exposed to and ensure its capacity is not exceeded.
Troubleshooting
Mask does not seal properly
Adjust the head straps for a tighter fit. Ensure facial hair is not interfering with the seal. Perform a user seal check to identify any leaks.
Difficulty breathing through the mask
Check if the filters are clogged or if the wrong type of filter is attached. Ensure the exhalation valve is not obstructed. Consider if a higher airflow filter is needed.
Fogging inside the mask
Ensure the mask is fitted correctly. Reduce physical exertion if possible, or ensure the exhalation valve is functioning properly to vent moisture.
Components appear damaged or worn
Inspect the facepiece, straps, and filter connections for cracks or tears. Replace any damaged parts immediately. Do not use the respirator if any component is compromised.
