Breathable Air Warning
This compressor/pump is not
equipped and should not be used
“as is” to supply breathing quality air.
For any application of air for human
consumption, the air compressor/
pump will need to be fitted with
suitable in-line safety and alarm
equipment. This additional equipment
is necessary to properly filter and
purify the air to meet minimal
specifications for Grade D breathing
as described in Compressed Gas
Association Commodity Specification
G 7.1 - 1966, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.
134, and/or Canadian Standards
Associations (CSA).
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
In the event the compressor is
used for the purpose of breathing
air application and proper in-line
safety and alarm equipment is
not simultaneously used, existing
warranties shall be voided, and
Campbell Hausfeld disclaims any
liability whatsoever for any loss,
personal injury or damage.
