Use For
Particles such as those from grinding, sanding, sweeping, sawing, bagging, or processing minerals, coal, iron ore, flour, metal, wood, pollen, and
certain other substances. Liquid or non-oil based particles from sprays that do not also emit oil aerosols or vapors. Follow all applicable local
regulations. For additional information on 3M use recommendations for this class of respirator please consult the 3M Respirator Selection Guide found
on the Personal Safety web site at www.3M.com/respiratorselector or call 1-800-243-4630 in U.S.A. In Canada, call 1-800 267-4414.
Do Not Use For
Do not use for gases and vapors, oil aerosols, asbestos, or sandblasting; particulate concentrations that exceed either 10 times the occupational
exposure limit or applicable government regulations, whichever is lower. In the United States, do not use when the U.S. Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) substance specific standards, such as those for arsenic, cadmium, lead in the construction industry, or 4,4’-methylene
dianiline (MDA), specify other types of respiratory protection. This respirator does not supply oxygen.
Biological Particles
This respirator can help reduce inhalation exposures to certain airborne biological particles (e.g. mold,
Bacillus anthracis
,
Mycobacterium tuberculosis
,
etc.) but cannot eliminate the risk of contracting infection, illness or disease. OSHA and other government agencies have not established safe
exposure limits for these contaminants.
Use Instructions
1. Failure to follow all instructions and limitations on the use of this respirator and/or failure to wear this respirator during all times of exposure can
reduce respirator effectiveness and
may result in sickness or death.
2. In the U.S., before occupational use of this respirator, a written respiratory protection program must be implemented meeting all the requirements
of OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134, such as training, fit testing, medical evaluation, and applicable OSHA substance specific standards. In Canada, CSA
standard Z94.4 requirements must be met and/or requirements of the applicable jurisdiction, as appropriate. Follow all applicable local regulations.
3. The particles which can be dangerous to your health include those so small that you cannot see them.
4. Leave the contaminated area immediately and contact supervisor if dizziness, irritation, or other distress occurs.
5. Store the respirator away from contaminated areas when not in use.
6. Inspect respirator before each use to ensure that it is in good operating condition. Examine all the respirator parts for signs of damage including
the two headbands, attachment points, nose foam, and noseclip. The respirator should be disposed of immediately upon observation of damaged
or missing parts. Filtering facepieces are to be inspected prior to each use to assure there are no holes in the breathing zone other than the
punctures around staples and no damage has occurred. Enlarged holes resulting from ripped or torn filter material around staple punctures are
considered damage. Immediately replace respirator if damaged. Staple perforations do not affect NIOSH approval (For 8110S only).
7. Conduct a user seal check before each use as specified in the Fitting Instructions section.
If you cannot achieve a proper seal, do not use the
respirator.
8. Dispose of used product in accordance with applicable regulations.
Use Limitations
1. This respirator does not supply oxygen. Do not use in atmospheres containing less than 19.5% oxygen.
2. Do not use when concentrations of contaminants are immediately dangerous to life and health, are unknown or when concentrations exceed 10
times the permissible exposure limit (PEL) or according to specific OSHA standards or applicable government regulations, whichever is lower.
3. Do not alter, wash, abuse or misuse this respirator.
4. Do not use with beards or other facial hair or other conditions that prevent a good seal between the face and the sealing surface of the respirator.
5. Respirators can help protect your lungs against certain airborne contaminants. They will not prevent entry through other routes such as the skin,
which would require additional personal protective equipment (PPE).
6. This respirator is designed for occupational/professional use by adults who are properly trained in its use and limitations. This respirator is not
designed to be used by children.
