Suitable for people who frequent smoky places
A RespiratorRespiratorRespirator is a device that protects you from inhaling potentially harmful substances such as chemicals and infectious particles. With so many products to choose from, it is not always easy to select the most effective Respirator for a particular application. There are different types of face mask for painting as described below.
If you work with chemicals, especially pesticides, search the PPE guide on the pesticide warning label. a NIOSH approved Respirator with a pesticide approved pre-filter; or a NIOSH approved Respirator with an organic vapour cartridge with any N, R, P, HE filter, is most suitable for pesticides.
If the pesticide is not oil-based, you can use the N95 Respirator. If it is oil-based, you will need an "oil-proof or oil-proof" pre-filter such as the P100, in which case the R, P and HE filters can also be used. If you are not sure which particulate filter to use, the P100 is the safest solution for both oil and non-oil applications.
Painting materials consist of pigments, binders and solvents as well as additives for drying. Organic vapours, ammonia or acidic gases are produced by waterborne and dissolved paints. Dizziness, headaches and nausea are all possible side effects of these strong gases.
In addition, when spraying paint from pressurised industrial sprayers or aerosol containers, additional aerosol particles can form. To control exposure, you need a cartridge and filter that can trap VOCs and aerosols.
Combination cartridges can handle wet particles as well as paint mist volatile emissions. Activated carbon is used in chemical cartridges to protect against gases and vapours.
When materials such as wood, coal, oil or paper burn incompletely, smoke is produced and APR filters can quickly become clogged with smoke particles. If exposed to fire, some Respirator components, including hoods and masks, may melt. Special filters are required to protect against carbon monoxide and other gases.
Finally, when choosing full face mask, consider comfort, fit and price. Regardless of the brand, wearing the appropriate Respiratory protection in these situations is vital.
