BAUER PureAir.<br />
The new concept<br />
for diving safety.<br />
– CERTIFIER –
2<br />
Why is BAUER PureAir so attractive?<br />
“My breathing air is pure.” It’s good if you can tell<br />
<strong>your</strong> scuba diving customers this with certainty. Because<br />
a diver must be able to rely on the fact that each<br />
cylinder is filled with perfect breathing air. Therefore,<br />
BAUER KOMPRESSOREN developed its own worldwide<br />
breathing air quality standard. BAUER PureAir. This seal<br />
of quality for BAUER breathing air compressors increases<br />
the safety of scuba diving. For <strong>your</strong> clients and for you<br />
as an operator. Even if you already offer breathing air<br />
meeting DIN EN 12021, BAUER PureAir is a real benefit<br />
for you: Monitoring of <strong>your</strong> breathing air filling centre<br />
assures permanent compliance with the standard.<br />
And the PureAir certification points out clearly to <strong>your</strong><br />
customers that you take their safety seriously - a quality<br />
plus which can make the difference.<br />
Make use of the advantage BAUER PureAir offers you.<br />

What are the advantages of a<br />
PureAir certification?<br />
With certification as a BAUER PureAir station, you gain<br />
an advantage over other diving centres: an attribute<br />
proving you to be a particularly safety-conscious and<br />
trustworthy company. At the same time, you achieve<br />
increased legal security.<br />
Because you are undertaking everything to ensure filling<br />
with pure breathing air. Your customers will thank you<br />
for it: with higher willingness to spend their money with<br />
you and with spontaneous recommendation to their<br />
friends who also love diving.<br />
BAUER KOMPRESSOREN will support you: Additionally<br />
to free of charge <strong>presence</strong> on www.bauer-pureair.com<br />

Which preconditions have to be<br />
met?<br />
For certification as a BAUER PureAir station, you have<br />
to fulfil four preconditions:<br />
1. You commit <strong>your</strong>self to use original BAUER filter<br />
cartridges. Manufacturing of these cartridges under<br />
industrial conditions guarantees a consistent standard<br />
of quality.<br />
2. You monitor the air quality of <strong>your</strong> BAUER filling<br />
centre using an internal or downstream SECURUS filter<br />
monitoring system, thus preventing exceeding the<br />
service life of the cartridge.<br />
3. You arrange for the correct installation of the compressor<br />
unit according to the operating instructions.<br />
Consequent observance of these regulations prevents,<br />
for example, the intake air being contaminated with<br />
carbon monoxide exhausted from a combustion engine.<br />
4. You agree to the annual inspection of <strong>your</strong> filling<br />
centre acc. to DIN EN 12021 by an authorized BAUER<br />
PureAir partner.
Why BAUER filter cartridges are<br />
indispensable for you?<br />
Only industrial manufacturing conditions guarantee<br />
that a filter cartridge is filled hygienically and unsaturated.<br />
BAUER takes care of that for you.<br />
The in-house filling of our filter cartridges ensures<br />
perfect air flow for optimal air purification. Original<br />
filter cartridges from BAUER are filled using only<br />
high-quality materials optimally mixed. Then, each<br />
single cartridge is vacuum-packed, sealed and checked<br />
for leakage. This explains why BAUER filter cartridges<br />
offer an optimal filtering. A security which can not only<br />
save a life, but also the reputation of <strong>your</strong> diving school!<br />

What does a breathing air<br />
purification system have to achieve?<br />
Compressors from BAUER rank among the safest breathing<br />
air compressors worldwide. They are equipped with<br />
proven purification systems which often clearly outperform<br />
the required safety limits of the standard DIN EN<br />
12021. Original BAUER filter cartridges are filled using<br />
only high-quality materials at the optimal mix, vacuumpacked<br />
and subsequently checked for leakage.<br />
The standard filter cartridge prevents water or oil from<br />
penetrating into the breathing air during air compression.<br />
For compressors with combustion engines, a special<br />
cartridge is offered, which avoids a critical carbon<br />
monoxide content being aspirated from the exhaust<br />
gases. Diving centres applying for certification in<br />
compliance with the BAUER PureAir standard have to<br />
equip their breathing air filling centre with a BAUER<br />
SECURUS purification system.<br />

How does SECURUS keep <strong>your</strong><br />
breathing air pure?<br />
The slightest risk is too high. Therefore, each BAUER<br />
PureAir station has to be equipped with SECURUS, the<br />
patented filter monitoring system from BAUER. SECURUS<br />
indicates in due time when the cartridge has to be<br />
changed and cuts off the unit automatically as soon as<br />
the cartridge is saturated. In contrast to conventional<br />
systems, SECURUS measures the humidity content of the<br />
compressed air already in the cartridge. This excludes two<br />
of the main causes for polluted breathing air: use of<br />
self-filled filter cartridges and belated exchange. As the<br />
unit only cuts off as soon as the filter is saturated, every<br />
cartridge can be completely used - a premature exchange<br />
for safety reasons is made unnecessary. Thus, SECURUS<br />
offers you not only safety, but also additional economic<br />
efficiency.<br />

How do you install <strong>your</strong> compressor<br />
unit correctly?<br />
The first step to the BAUER PureAir certification of<br />
<strong>your</strong> diving centre:<br />
1. The floor must be even, dust-free and suited for the<br />
weight and vibration loading imposed by the compressor.<br />
2. The intake hose - maximum length 3 m, kink-proof<br />
and with sufficient section - has to be suspended high,<br />
dry and facing against the wind.<br />
3. Cooling air flow of the fan and wind point in the<br />
same direction.<br />
4. Perfect air intake and exhaust air during compressor<br />
operation have to be guaranteed. Exhaust gas must in<br />
no circumstances be re-aspirated. Particularly, proximity<br />
to heavily trafficked roads has to be avoided.<br />
5. Breathing air compressors powered by combustion<br />
engines may only be installed in a sufficiently ventilated<br />
room without public access.<br />
6. The ambient temperature has to be between 5 °C<br />
and 45 °C.<br />

How do you become a BAUER PureAir<br />
station?<br />
You wish to become one of the PureAir stations?<br />
If you are operating a BAUER filling centre with SECURUS<br />
monitoring system, you can apply for BAUER PureAir<br />
certification. Only authorized BAUER partners with<br />
successfully completed PureAir training in the BAUER<br />
headquarters in Munich are allowed to award this<br />
certificate. The inspection verifies the correct installation<br />
and the air quality of the compressor unit. The water<br />
content as well as the oil, carbon dioxide and carbon<br />
monoxide concentrations within the breathing air is<br />
measured acc. to DIN EN 12021. This European standard<br />
defines the purity of the compressed air for breathing<br />
equipment. The correct observance of the maintenance<br />
intervals is also checked, and the result is registered in<br />
a test log. A positive result will lead to <strong>your</strong> diving<br />
centre being certified. Your certification is valid for one<br />
year maximum. Thereafter, you will require further<br />
visits from quality controllers at regular intervals, at the<br />
latest after 12 months. This procedure ensures that<br />
BAUER PureAir is the worldwide seal of quality for<br />
diving centres using BAUER units.<br />
