Question 3

What filters are compatible with this respirator?

Accepted Answer

This respirator works with 3M bayonet-style filters and cartridges (e.g., 6000-series filters) that provide protection against gases, vapours and particulates. Choose the appropriate combination based on the specific hazard (e.g., particulate, organic vapours, acid gases) and ensure you pair two filters for balanced breathing resistance.

Accepted Answer

To attach filters, align the bayonet lugs on the filters with the respirator’s connection, twist clockwise until they click into place, and snug the seals.

Remove the filters before cleaning. Clean the facepiece with mild soap and warm water, rinse, and air-dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not use harsh cleaners or solvents. Reinstall filters only when completely dry and in good condition.
