Bullard 88VX Low-Pressure Supplied-Air Sandblasting Helmet Kit – EDP10 Free-Air Pump & 50' Hose

Bullard 88VX Low-Pressure Supplied-Air Sandblasting Helmet Kit – EDP10 Free-Air Pump & 50' Hose

Get a complete low-pressure supplied-air respirator package for professional abrasive blasting with this Bullard 88VX Free-Air Pump Sandblasting Helmet System, featuring the EDP10 Electric-Driven Free-Air Pump, F35 Constant-Flow Control, and 50-Foot Breathing-Air Hose.

Designed for industrial sandblasting, shot blasting, and surface preparation, this package combines Bullard's NIOSH-approved Type CE blasting respirator with a dedicated low-pressure breathing-air pump.

Unlike conventional high-pressure supplied-air respirator packages that require a suitable compressed breathing-air supply, this system includes its own 120V single-phase electric-driven free-air pump.

The EDP10 is designed to draw air from a suitable clean-air location and deliver it to the respirator through the included low-pressure breathing-air hose.

Bullard EDP10 Free-Air Pump

The Bullard EDP10 Electric-Driven Free-Air Pump is the key component that sets this package apart from a conventional compressed-air respirator system.

Instead of relying on a shop compressor, the EDP10 draws ambient air from a properly selected clean-air location and supplies it to the respirator.

Benefits include:

• Dedicated breathing-air supply for a compatible respirator

• 120V single-phase electrical operation

• Low-pressure system design

• No conventional high-pressure shop-air compressor required

• Suitable for appropriately configured portable blasting operations

• Convenient package for contractors establishing a supplied-air respirator setup

Important: The EDP10 must draw air from a clean, uncontaminated location. It does not make contaminated ambient air safe to breathe.

Low-Pressure vs. High-Pressure Breathing-Air Systems

Bullard offers supplied-air respirator systems designed for different air-source configurations.

Low-Pressure EDP10 Package – This Listing

• Bullard EDP10 electric-driven free-air pump

• Bullard F35 constant-flow control

• 1/2" industrial interchange connection

• 50' x 1/2" ID breathing-air hose

• Dedicated low-pressure breathing-air supply

Conventional High-Pressure Package

• Uses a suitable high-pressure compressed breathing-air source

• Typically uses a different flow-control configuration

• Requires compatible high-pressure breathing-air hose

• May require separate filtration and carbon monoxide monitoring equipment

Low-pressure and high-pressure respirator components are not automatically interchangeable.

Always use the correct Bullard-approved pump, flow control, breathing-air hose, and respirator combination.

NIOSH-Approved Respiratory Protection

The Bullard 88VX Series is NIOSH-approved as a Type C and CE Continuous Flow Class Respirator.

NIOSH Approval Number: TC-19C-293

The respirator is designed to provide respiratory protection during abrasive blasting operations when assembled and operated with the required approved components.

The supplied-air design delivers breathing air from a separate air source rather than relying on a filter cartridge attached to the helmet.

NIOSH approval applies only to the approved combination of components and operating conditions.

Advanced Operator Protection

The Bullard 88VX incorporates several features designed for abrasive blasting environments:

• Sewn-in neck cuff providing a physical barrier against airborne contaminants

• Double-lined neck area for increased durability

• Protective cape covering the neck, shoulders, and upper torso

• Helmet designed to provide top impact and penetration protection

• Head and face coverage against abrasive rebound and flying particles

• Continuous breathing-air delivery when connected to the approved air-supply system

Comfortable Fit for Extended Blasting

The Bullard 88VX is designed for operator comfort during extended abrasive blasting operations.

Features include:

• Lightweight inner helmet shell

• Adjustable headband suspension

• Airflow directed toward the breathing zone

• Loose-fitting respirator design

• No conventional tight-fitting facepiece fit test required

• Optional cheek pads available for additional stability

Wide-Angle Visibility

The Bullard 88VX features a wide-angle viewing window designed to provide a clear view of the workpiece during blasting.

Additional features include:

• Replaceable protective lenses

• Wide viewing area

• Translucent yellow helmet shell

• Viewing design intended to reduce the enclosed feeling associated with blasting helmets

Replaceable protective lenses help maintain visibility as outer surfaces become worn or scratched during blasting operations.

Bullard F35 Constant-Flow Control

The included Bullard F35 Constant-Flow Control is designed for compatible low-pressure supplied-air respirator systems.

This configuration uses a 1/2" industrial interchange connection.

The F35 must be used with the correct Bullard-approved breathing-air pump and hose combination.

Never substitute a high-pressure flow control, ordinary pneumatic hose, or incompatible air-supply component.

Bullard V2050ST – 50-Foot Breathing-Air Hose

The package includes a Bullard V2050ST breathing-air hose, measuring 50 feet long with a 1/2" inside diameter.

The hose connects the compatible low-pressure breathing-air source to the respirator's flow-control assembly.

Only approved breathing-air hoses and fittings should be used.

Never substitute ordinary shop-air hose for an approved breathing-air hose.

Applications

This Bullard low-pressure free-air pump respirator package is designed for professional applications including:

• Industrial sandblasting

• Shot blasting and abrasive blasting

• Structural steel surface preparation

• Industrial coating removal

• Shipyard and marine maintenance

• Bridge maintenance and rehabilitation

• Tank and vessel surface preparation

• Industrial equipment refurbishment

• Commercial abrasive blasting operations

• Portable abrasive blasting operations

Clean-Air Intake Requirements

THE EDP10 FREE-AIR PUMP MUST DRAW AIR FROM A CLEAN, UNCONTAMINATED LOCATION.

The pump must never be positioned where its intake could draw in:

• Internal combustion engine exhaust

• Carbon monoxide

• Paint or solvent vapors

• Abrasive blasting dust

• Welding fumes

• Chemical vapors

• Other harmful airborne contaminants

The intake location must be selected and monitored according to Bullard's instructions and applicable respiratory protection requirements.

A free-air pump does not remove carbon monoxide or other harmful gases from contaminated ambient air.

Electrical Requirements

The Bullard EDP10 operates on 120V single-phase electrical power.

Before operation:

• Verify the electrical supply meets the pump's requirements

• Inspect the power cord and connections

• Follow applicable grounding and electrical safety requirements

• Keep the pump protected from water and physical damage

• Follow Bullard's instructions for pump placement, operation, and maintenance

Important

This listing is for one Bullard 88VX Low-Pressure Supplied-Air Sandblasting Respirator Package, including:

• Bullard 88VX Type CE Blasting Helmet

• Bullard 46VX 28" Protective Cape

• Bullard F35 Constant-Flow Control

• 1/2" Industrial Interchange Connection

• Bullard EDP10 Electric-Driven Free-Air Pump

• Bullard V2050ST 50' x 1/2" ID Breathing-Air Hose

The system must be assembled, inspected, operated, and maintained according to Bullard's instructions and the employer's respiratory protection program.

The pump must be positioned to draw from a verified clean-air location, and the complete configuration must meet applicable breathing-air requirements.

Respiratory Protection Safety

Never operate a supplied-air respirator using an unverified air source or incompatible components.

The Bullard EDP10 must be used only with approved respirator components and within the manufacturer's specified operating conditions.

If the breathing-air supply is interrupted or becomes unsafe, the operator must follow established emergency procedures and leave the hazardous atmosphere immediately.
