Common Applications/Hazards:

For protection when welding, soldering, brazing, grinding, polishing, drilling, metal pouring or machining

Protection Factors

Note that any filtering respirator should not be used for protection at airborne concentrations of contaminants above the relevant IDLH levels.

This filter, when used for protection against the contaminants as specified, is capable of providing the following protection levels:

– With a 3M 7500 Half Face Respirator: for particles, for airborne concentrations up to 10 times the Workplace Exposure Standard (WES)
– Organic compounds with low vapour pressures (<1.3Pa @ 25 degrees Celsius) in concentrations up to 10 x WES
– Ozone up to 10 x WES
– Offers relief from acid gases and organic vapours at levels below the WES
