When should I replace my disposable respirator?
The air of the working area may contain harmful particles in the form of dust, smoke and fog, as well as various hazardous gases and vapors. One of the options for protection against these substances is a disposable respirator, which can only be used in areas with a sufficient oxygen concentration of at least 17%.
What is the limit of its capabilities?
Please replace your disposable respirator if you notice any of the following:
-
Resistance to breathing or high humidity in the inner mask space.
-
Violation of the integrity of the parts, there are signs of aging (for example, an elastic band that has lost its elasticity).
-
Difficulty of breathing.
-
The presence of an unpleasant odor in the inner mask space (for disposable respirators with protection against harmful gases and vapors).
