APPENDIX A
FACEPIECE FITTING
A respirator fit test must be performed to ensure the correct respirator facepiece size has been selected and assigned
to the user. The respiratory protection’s program manager or safety coordinator is responsible for assisting the user
in selecting the correct respirator size relative to the user’s facial features and dimensions. Any approved 3M Scott
Fire & Safety accessories that will be used with the respirator (such as a communications device, etc.) must be in place
during fit testing. If changing from a standard facepiece to a facepiece with an installed accessory, such as a
communications device, a new fit test be performed.
About Fit Testing
Before occupational use of this respirator, a written respiratory protection program must be implemented meeting all
local, state, federal government or jurisdiction having authority requirements. In the United States, employers must
comply with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134, which includes medical evaluation, training, and fit testing.
Respirator fit tests are explained fully in the following:
•
American National Standard Respiratory Fit Testing Methods, ANSI/AIHA/ASSE Z88.10, current edition
•
Occupational Safety and Health Standards, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 Appendix A
•
In Canada, fit tests are explained in Selection, Use and Care of Respirators, CAN/CSA Z94.4
Quantitative fit testing per OSHA Standard 29 CFR Part 1910.134 Appendix A, or ANSI/AIHA/ASSP Z88.10 (current
edition) requires testing in the negative pressure mode using Quantitative Fit Test (QNFT) protocols deemed
acceptable by those standards. For quantitative fit testing, 3M Scott facepieces require use of the appropriate
negative pressure QNFT test protocol, such as the ambient aerosol condensation nuclei counter (e.g., TSI
PortaCount® Respirator Fit Tester
1
) or controlled negative pressure (CNP) fit test device (e.g., OHD Quantifit
2
) along
with the following 3M Scott products as required to support the selected protocol:
•
A new CBRN CAP-1 Canister (P/N 045135) or P100 Cartridge (P/N 052683)
•
Probed Fit Test Adapter: P/N 201520-01 for Vision C5
•
Mask Seal Kit (P/N 805655-01)
•
Appropriate accessory (such as a communications device) properly installed on the facepiece
