General Information
Bullard’s FAMB2 airline respirator, when properly used, provides a
continuous flow of air from a remote air source to the respirator wearer.
FAMB2 respirators offer protection from airborne contaminants that are
not immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH), or that do not exceed
concentrations allowed by applicable OSHA, EPA, NIOSH or ACGIH regulations
and recommendations for continuous-flow class airline half-mask respirators.
FAMB2 airline respirators are approved by NIOSH (TC-19C-xxx Type C,
Continuous-Flow Class) to provide respiratory protection in general purpose
applications, including spray painting, tank cleaning, chemical and pesticide
handling, and other industrial or agricultural applications. The FAMB2
respirator is NOT to be used in confined spaces or IDLH conditions.
FAMB2 respirators are compatible with breathing air sources such as
breathing air compressors or Bullard Free-Air
®
Pumps. Bullard offers the
appropriate approved breathing tube assembly and air supply hose to connect
the FAMB2 respirator to these breathing air sources.
FAMB2 facepieces are available in three sizes.
The new FAMB2 masks feature the Bullard logo on the bridge of the nose and
are designed with a headband assembly that has four points of attachment;
two on each side of the face. The three sizes of replacement masks for this
style are FAM2S (small), FAM2M (medium), and FAM2L (large). Fit test kit
FAMAK is available for fit-testing the FAM2S, FAM2M and FAM2L masks.
Contact Bullard or a local authorized distributor for more information about
FAMB2 respirators.
