The MIRA Safety MB-90 Powered Air-Purifying Respirator is a blower-assisted device
commonly referred to as a PAPR. Training is required before use.
The MIRA Safety MB-90 has an enclosed and sealed design that contains NO
user-replaceable parts. Opening the PAPR enclosure could compromise its functionality
and immediately voids the warranty. If you experience functionality issues, please
contact MIRA Safety Customer Service.
The MIRA Safety MB-90 is designed to be used with a full-face respirator/gas mask and
40 mm NATO standard gas mask filters, fitted head harness, a breathing tube to
connect the PAPR to the face mask, and eight (8) AA batteries to ensure functionality.
Each of these elements MUST be functioning properly for your PAPR to work as
designed.
