1 INTRODUCTION
The North Primair Series Head Cover is a fabric head covering designed for use with the North Compact Air belt mounted Powered Air
Purifying Respirator (PAPR), to provide respiratory protection from gases, vapors and particulates depending on the air purifying ele-
ments used. The Compact Air PAPR uses a blower unit to force ambient air through filters/cartridges that remove contaminants, provid-
ing clean air to the user. To form a complete approved powered air-purifying respirator, the Primair Head Coverings can only be used
with North Safety Products Compact Air PAPR and the appropriate filters/cartridges listed on the NIOSH Approval Labels.
