Enables 3M reusable half and full face masks with bayonet filter fittings to be set up for Qualitative Fit Testing usually undertaken in a laboratory setting.
Note
3M Fit Testing Adaptor - 601
Maximise operator protection with this face-mask fit-testing adaptor from 3M. It ensures that respiratory protective equipment properly fits your facial features and forms a seal that adequately safeguards against airborne hazards. The adaptor lets you thread plastic tubing through the inhalation valve and into the interior of the mask, so a sampling instrument can measure the test-agent concentration inside the respirator. This fit-test process prevents the inhalation of dangerous substances in labs and other hazardous environments, making for a safer workplace.
Features and Benefits
Can be used to test a range of 3M face masks with a bayonet-style filter attachment for versatility Includes plastic tubing, suction cups and a retainer clip, so it's ready to use
Applications
Laboratories and medical facilities Chemical processing plants Automotive industry Transportation industry
Why is it important to test the fit of a respiratory mask?
A respiratory mask only provides full protection against airborne hazards if it makes a tight seal with your skin. If your mask doesn't fit properly, air goes around the respirator rather than through it, which can cause you to breathe in dangerous particles. A proper mask fit also ensures that other personal protective equipment (PPE) works correctly, as devices like safety goggles can fog up if a half-face respirator isn't fitted correctly.
