Helps provide protection against certain oil and non-oil based aerosol particles including those present with nuisance levels of acid gases such as sulphur dioxide, hydrogen fluoride, and/or chlorine.

Suggested applications include glass etching, chemical processing, paper processing, aluminum smelting and brewing operations. Its lightweight construction promotes greater worker comfort and contributes to increased wear time.

The 3M™ Particulate Respirator 8246, R95 provides reliable worker protection against certain oil and non-oil based aerosol particles including those present with nuisance levels of acid gases* such as sulphur dioxide, hydrogen fluoride and/or chlorine. This respirator offers a number of benefits to you and your workers:

NIOSH approved R95
• At least 95% filtration efficiency against solid and liquid aerosols including oils.** TC-84A-1350

Technologies
• Advanced Electret Media: Advanced electrostatically charged microfibers make breathing easier and cooler.
• Odor-removing Filter Material: Carbon layers remove many nuisance level odors for greater comfort and productivity.

Lightweight construction
• Promotes greater worker comfort.
• Contributes to increased wear time.

Odor removing filter material
• Carbon layer provides relief from nuisance levels of acid gases* for greater comfort.

All filter design
• Helps provide economical protection.
• No spare parts to maintain.
• Promotes easier communication.

Adjustable noseclip
• Helps provide a custom fit and secure seal.
• Reduces the potential for eyewear fogging.

Braided headband
• Provides comfort and durability.

Suggested Applications
• Glass etching
• Chemical processing
• Paper processing
• Brewing operations
• Aluminum smelting

Use For:
• Solids such as those from processing minerals, coal, iron ore, cotton, flour, and certain other substances.
• Liquid or oil based particles from sprays that do not also emit harmful vapors.
• Nuisance level acid gases such as Sulfur Dioxide, Hydrogen Fluoride and/or Chlorine.

Do Not Use For:
Vapors, including those present in paint spraying operations, asbestos, arsenic, cadmium, lead, 4,4'-methylenedianiline (MDA) or sandblasting. Concentrations of acid gases exceed the OSHA PEL or applicable exposure limits, whichever is lower. Aerosol concentrations that exceed 10 times the OSHA PEL, or applicable exposure limits, whichever is lower. This respirator does not supply oxygen.

Important
Before using these respirators, you must determine the following:
1. The type of contaminant(s) for which the respirator is being selected.
2. The concentration level of contaminant(s).
3. Whether the respirator can be properly fitted on the wearer’s face. Do not use with beards, on other facial hair, or other conditions that prevent a good seal between the face and the faceseal of the respirator.
4. Before use of these respirators, a written respiratory protection program must be implemented, meeting all the requirements of OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134, including training, medical evaluation and fit testing.

Time Use Limitation
If respirator becomes damaged, soiled, or breathing becomes difficult, leave the contaminated area immediately and dispose of the respirator. If oil aerosols are present time use may be limited to 8 hours of continuous or intermittent use. Refer to NIOSH User’s Guide, Pub. No. 96-101.

Additional Information
These respirators contain no components made from natural rubber latex.

WARNING !
These respirators help reduce exposure to certain particles. Misuse may result in sickness or death. Before use, the wearer must read and understand User Instructions provided as a part of product packaging. Time use limitations may apply. For proper use, see package instructions, supervisor or call 3M OH&ESD Technical Service in U.S.A., 1-800-243-4630. In Canada, call 1-800-267-4414.

* 3M recommended for relief against nuisance levels of acid gas. Nuisance level acid gas refers to concentrations not exceeding OSHA PEL or applicable exposure limits, whichever is lower.
** Tested against particles approximately 0.3 micron in size (mass median aerodynamic diameter) per 42 CFR 84.
