OVERVIEW

Maintain Peak Respiratory Safety with the Walter AP-HFS-02 Face Seal

The Walter AP-HFS-02 Face Seal is a critical replacement component designed specifically for the Eagle and Airshield series of respiratory protection systems. In industrial environments where Powered Air Purifying Respirators (PAPR) are utilized, the integrity of the face seal is paramount. This component functions as the primary barrier between the operator's breathing zone and the contaminated ambient atmosphere. By creating a closed loop around the user's face, it allows the PAPR unit to maintain positive pressure, effectively pushing clean, filtered air out and preventing hazardous particulates, fumes, and vapors from entering.

Over time, face seals can degrade due to exposure to sweat, heat, and industrial grime, or simply lose their elasticity. A compromised seal can significantly reduce the Assigned Protection Factor (APF) of the unit, rendering the user susceptible to exposure limits exceeding safety standards. The AP-HFS-02 is engineered to meet original equipment specifications, ensuring that the airflow dynamics of the Eagle and Airshield helmets function as intended. It is constructed from durable, skin-friendly materials that resist tearing while providing the flexibility needed to accommodate various facial profiles.

Regular inspection and replacement of the face seal are recommended as part of a standard MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) schedule for safety equipment. This product ensures that your facility remains compliant with occupational safety regulations regarding respiratory protection. Installation is straightforward, allowing for quick change-outs during shift changes or maintenance intervals without requiring extensive downtime. Trust in Walter's commitment to industrial safety to keep your equipment performing at its best.

FAQ

The AP-HFS-02 is designed specifically for use with Eagle and Airshield respiratory systems.

Replacement frequency depends on usage and hygiene. It is recommended to inspect the seal daily and replace it if it shows signs of wear, tears, loss of elasticity, or excessive soiling.

While designed for welding environments, specific flame retardant ratings should be verified against the master safety manual of the Eagle/Airshield system. Generally, these seals are made from treated materials to withstand sparks.

It is generally recommended to wipe down the face seal with mild soapy water or approved respirator wipes. Soaking or machine washing may damage the material or elastic.

Yes. A properly fitted and intact face seal is required to maintain the positive pressure and Assigned Protection Factor (APF) of the PAPR system.

No, the seal is designed for easy removal and installation, usually attaching via velcro or clips depending on the specific helmet frame.

A damaged face seal can disrupt airflow, leading to poor circulation and fogging. Replacing the seal often resolves this issue.

No, this SKU is for the replacement face seal only. Headgear and helmet shells are sold separately.
