Respirators
As one of the leading designers and manufacturers of respirators in
the world, provides products that address the needs of both
workplace, regulated applications and do-it-yourself, non-regulated
applications. For workplace uses, employees may be exposed to known
concentrations of harmful contaminants for part or all of the
workday. In these situations, respirators are intended to help
protect the wearer by reducing their exposure to airborne
contaminants from a level that may be hazardous to one that is
considered safe or acceptable according to government established
levels. In addition, home users cannot easily determine exposure
levels nor do they have ready access to the type of training
medical evaluation and fit testing needed to be in compliance with
workplace respirator standards. In these situations, respirators
are intended to help keep non-harmful dusts and certain particles
out of your nose, mouth and lungs and with some filters help
eliminate annoying odors only.
About NIOSH Respirators
This respirator is government approved by the National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) as an N95 class
respirator and is designed for workplace, regulated uses and
applications. NIOSH certification means the respirator has passed
stringent government performance standards including filtration
efficiency testing and provides at least 95% filtration efficiency
solid and liquid particles that do not contain oil.
Fitting Instructions
1. Cup the respirator in your hand, with the nose-piece at your
fingertips, allowing the headbands to hang freely below your hand.
2. Position the respirator under your chin with the nose-piece up.
Pull the top strap over your head resting it high at the top back
of your head. Pull the bottom strap over your head and position it
around the neck below the ears.
3. Place your fingertips from both hands at the top of the metal
nose-piece. Using two hands, mold the nose area to the shape of
your nose by pushing inward while moving your fingertips down both
sides of the nose-piece.
To help determine if you have put the respirator on properly, place
both hands completely over the respirator and inhale sharply. Be
careful not to disturb the position of the respirator. A negative
pressure should be felt inside the respirator. If air leaks around
nose, readjust the nose-piece as described in step 3 of fitting
instructions. If air leaks at the respirator edges, work the straps
back along the sides of your head.
Wearing the Respirator
To be most effective, this N95 respirator must be worn at all times
while you are exposed to non-harmful dusts and particles. If the
respirator becomes difficult to breath through or is damaged,
immediately go to a non-contaminated area and replace the
respirator. Beards, facial hair or anything else that prevents
direct contact between the face and the edge of the respirator will
reduce the effectiveness of this respirator. Inspect the respirator
prior to each use and if any defect is found, do not use. Also, do
not use this respirator for any toxic or harmful substances such as
lead and asbestos.
