Acid Gas Respirator Filter

NIOSH approved for environments containing certain oil and non-oil based particles. 3M recommended for relief against nuisance levels of acid gases.

Use with 3M™ Respirators 5000 Series or 3M™ Cartridge 6000 Series with 3M™ Adapter 502, 3M™ Facepieces 6000 Series or 3M™ Facepieces 7000 Series with bayonet filter holders. Applications: welding, brazing, torch cutting, metal pouring, soldering; exposure to lead, asbestos, cadmium, arsenic, and MDA for concentrations up to 10 times the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) with half facepieces or 50 times PEL with full facepieces. Full facepieces must be fit tested to claim assigned protection factor above 10 in negative pressure mode. Refer to specific provincial regulation for appropriate assigned protection factors for full face respirators. Nuisance level relief from acid gases below the PEL. Nuisance level refers to concentrations not exceeding OSHA PEL or other applicable occupational exposure limits. Do not use for respiratory protection against acid gases or in environments that are immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH).
