Full Facepiece Respirators

Full face respirators can be effective in removing many chemicals, toxins, dusts, mists, spores and biological contaminants from the air. Proper selection of cartridges and proper use of respirators is important for safe operation.      There are many considerations during evaluation, selection and use of air-purifying respirators: correct repirator selection, proper fit, necessary regular maintenance, and an assessment of the situation where the respirators will be used. Disregarding any of these items may result in a danger for the wearer due to a false confidence in the respirators ability to protect. The user of a respirator must understand its limitations and recognize situations that require more extensive protection.        Respirator filter cartridges come in a wide variety of styles and can be selected for the specific risk or for general protection from a wide range of contaminants. Safety and protection of health should be the exercised when hazardous chemicals, gases, spores, dusts, mists or biological contamination exists.      Full face respirators come in handy for many industrial, chemical, dust, mist, radiation, organic vapors and other airborne hazards at work, home or in case of emergency or disaster.
