3M™ 5113854295 Particulate Filter, For Use With 6000 and 7000 Series Air Purifying Respirators, P100 Filter Class, 0.9997 Filter Efficiency, Bayonet Connection, Magenta, Resists: Oil and Non-Oil Based Particles

The 3M™ particulate filter 2096, P100, with nuisance level acid gas relief helps provide respiratory protection against exposure to lead, asbestos, cadmium, arsenic, and MDA. The filter is effective for concentrations up to 10 times the permissible exposure limit (PEL) with half face pieces, or 50 times PEL with quantitatively fit tested full face pieces. This filter helps protect against a wide range of oil and non-oil based particulate contaminants. The filter also offers nuisance level odor relief from acid gases that are below the PEL. Nuisance level refers to concentrations not exceeding OSHA PEL or other applicable government exposure limits, whichever is lower. Do not use for respiratory protection against acid gases or in environments that are immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH). Inventory needs and training requirements of safety equipment are reduced because this filter works for many different applications. This filter is commonly used in the following industries: mining, primary metals. The filter works with a wide range of face pieces, including 3M™ half and full Facepieces 6000, 7000 and FF-400 Series. If used with 3M™ adapter 502, the filter may also be used with 3M™ respirator 5000 series or 3M™ cartridge 6000 Series. The filter is NIOSH (National Institute for occupational safety and Health) approved for environments containing certain oil and non-oil based particles. The filter has been assigned the color code magenta in the NIOSH system. Passing NIOSH's P-series test criteria, the 2096 P100 filter provides at least 99.97 percent filter efficiency against particles. Breathing hazardous particles can pose a risk to your health. NIOSH, a federal government regulatory agency, has tested and approved the 3M™ particulate filter 2096 to help reduce exposure to certain particles.
