If you experience difficulty with the CleanSpace Respirator you can:
CleanSpace AGILE is ideal for organisations seeking a simple-to-deploy respiratory protection solution for workers exposed to airborne particulates.
Recommended applications include:
AGILE is particularly suited to workplaces where:
No. CleanSpace Agile is designed to be loose-fitting and does not rely on a tight facial seal. Therefore, Fit Testing is not required.
No, they are not fully interchangeable from a certification perspective.
Mechanical connection:
All CST masks (Half Face, Full Face, Facepiece) can physically connect to either PRO/ULTRA or AGILE units.
Certification / compliance:
Important: Even if the masks fit mechanically, using a mask outside its certified unit may invalidate regulatory approval and compromise safety.
No. CleanSpace AGILE is suitable for users with all types of facial hair, regardless of location or length.
Yes. CleanSpace AGILE can be worn without facial hair with no issues. As a loose-fitting respirator, it does not rely on a tight facial seal, so it is suitable for both clean-shaven users and those with facial hair.
Yes, the bib is replaceable. Replacement frequency depends on usage and environment. It should be replaced if it becomes damaged, heavily soiled, or as part of routine hygiene protocols in controlled environments such as healthcare or pharmaceutical settings.
The bib is not designed for repeated sterilisation processes. For environments requiring strict hygiene control, it is recommended to replace the bib rather than attempt sterilisation, following site-specific infection control protocols.
At the Minimum Designated Cooling (MMDC) rate, the manufacturer specifies a minimum run time of 4 hours. In normal use, users typically experience up to 7 hours of operation. Actual run time will vary depending on factors such as altitude, filter condition and type, work rate, facepiece seal, and other conditions.
No, after doffing, allow the Power Unit to run for at least five (5) seconds so the CleanSpace AGILE can complete a filter check. Then, press the Power Button once to switch the Power Unit to Standby mode.
The CleanSpace AGILE Facepiece comes in a single size, designed to fit all users.
CleanSpace AGILE will alert you when the filter needs replacement. Both audible and visual alarms will activate if the particulate filter becomes blocked, is absent or if airflow drops below the minimum safe level. Additionally, filters should be replaced if they are visibly damaged or soiled.
CleanSpace AGILE is a powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR) with a breath-responsive design that matches airflow to your breathing — increasing it as you inhale and easing off as you exhale. If it detects no breathing, it automatically switches to constant-flow mode and sounds a warning alarm.
Safety Mode supplies a continuous high flow of filtered air, so you retain a significant level of protection. However, because the alarm is triggered by a large leak or missing component, the system can no longer confirm you are receiving full protection. Treat it as a prompt to act: check the fit and positioning as soon as it is safe, and if the alarm continues, move to a safe area and address the cause before resuming work.
CleanSpace SMART App is not currently available for CleanSpace AGILE. This will be coming soon.
An IP54 rating means the device is protected against limited dust ingress (sufficient to prevent harmful effects) and against water splashes from any direction. It is suitable for use in environments where exposure to dust and light moisture may occur, but it is not waterproof or designed for immersion.
CST ULTRA data is automatically stored in the firmware. In preparation for a report, simply pair each unit individually with the CleanSpace SMART App and synchronise the data. This will securely upload the information to the CleanSpace Cloud.
Then contact your CleanSpace representative to request an Insights report for your site. This report will be in an easy-to-read format to assist site managers or supervisors identify usage trends, protection levels and filter activity.

No. The interactive dashboard (Insights Report) ONLY identifies the respirator by it’s unique serial number. No other personal identifiable elements are stored in the respirator firmware.
Reports are generated for either a 7-day or a 14-day period. Multiple reports can be combined to cover longer time-frames, such as a 4-week period.
Yes. Monthly reporting will be provided as two consecutive 14-day reports.
An Insights Report is designed for online, interactive use and is not optimised for downloading. If you wish to print elements of the report, you may select print in your web browser and select your format.
No. The interactive dashboard (Insights Report) ONLY identifies the respirator by it’s unique serial number. A site will need to record additional identification elements (location of respirator use, name of user, airborne contaminant etc) within their own compliance process and procedures documents.
Estimated Protection provides a real-world view of how effectively the wearer was protected each respirator protected during the reporting period.
NOTE: The estimated protection is measured by comparing the respirator output to the CleanSpace AirSensit algorithm and is a concept specific to CleanSpace. An estimated protection is not to be confused with a Nominal Protection Factor or a Fit Factor

• CST Ultra and CST PRO: up to 14 hours*
• CleanSpace AGILE: up to 7hours**
*Operating time is strongly affected by filter type, filter loading, mask seal, work rate, altitude, and other factors. Actual operating times may vary.
** Operating time is influenced by filter loading, correct fitment of facepiece (including bib and nosepiece), work rate, altitude, and other factors. Actual operating times may vary.
The lithium polymer battery can safety receive short “top up” charges through-out the shift allowing the respirator to be used over a 12-hour shift.
ALWAYS start the shift with a fully charged battery (3 green LEDs).
To charge, connect the Respirator to the charger. Turn the Respirator over and check that one of the green LEDs on the keypad is flashing. If none of the LEDs is flashing, the unit is not charging. ALWAYS start the shift with a fully charged battery (3 green LEDs).
The internal battery of the CleanSpace Respirators cannot be changed. Any attempt to open the CleanSpace Respirator casing will void the warranty.
All CleanSpace respirators, except the CleanSpace AGILE, are designed to automatically switch off the motor and enter Standby Mode within ten (10) seconds when not in use.
If any CleanSpace respirator, including the CleanSpace AGILE, is in Standby Mode and no breathing is detected for three (3) minutes, the respirator will switch to Off Mode.
To restart the respirator from Off Mode, press the Power Button to return it to Standby Mode.
The CleanSpace Respirator has several masks: half and full-face masks. The half masks come in 3 sizes (small, medium and large). The full-face mask comes in 2 sizes (small and medium/large). Choose the mask that ensures a close seal on your face and fits comfortably on the face. The correct CleanSpace mask should be fitted by trained safety personnel before being issued for use. Note: CleanSpace Respirators are accredited Respiratory Protection Equipment. We recommend that the wearer be clean-shaven when using CleanSpace Respirators*.

There is no way to determine filter life for one workplace without significant air quality testing. Every working environment is different regarding airbourne contaminants: hazard risk, exposure levels, and concentrations around the wearer. And the wearers breathing efforts – all impact how long a filter will last. The CleanSpace filters have two advantages to assist filter life i) the filter is located at the back away from the direct path of fumes or dust generated in front of the wearer (i.e. welding, grinding) and ii) the CleanSpace respirators are breath responsive, only pulling air through the filters when the wearer needs it (unlike other PAPRs that have a constant peak flow (>100L/min) which pulls air through the filters regardless of whether the wearer needs the air or not).
The CleanSpace filters should NOT be cleaned. Do NOT use compressed air or any other method to clean the CleanSpace filters. Cleaning the filters can damage the filters and risk the protection efficiency of the Respirator.
For particulate filters, the CleanSpace Respirators have a filter alarm. The alarm (audible and visual) detects when the particulate filters are blocked and will beep during use and the filter light (RED) will come on. For gas filters, there is no way to detect when the gas filters activated carbon is exhausted. The wearer should be aware of work place policies on the use of Respirators with gas or combination filters, if the wearer detects a noticeable taste or smell then they should immediately leave the contaminated area and change the filters.
The CleanSpace filters are constructed from flame retardant materials. Testing has shown that the filters will not ignite when exposed to sparks or open flame.
