Comprehensive Respiratory Protection for Demanding Environments.

Technical Features of the 3M Full-Face Respirator

The 6000DIN Series respirator stands out for its lightweight design, wide field of vision, and secure fit with four elastic straps. It contains no natural rubber latex, reducing allergy risks. The polycarbonate lens acts as integrated eye protection, shielding against splashes and particles. Using a removable lens cover is recommended to preserve the lens.

Installing the 3M Respirator With Air-Purifying Systems

To properly install the 3M full-face respirator, pair it with a compatible powered air-purifying or supplied air system. Adjust the elastic straps to ensure a perfect seal around the face. A visual inspection before each use is recommended to check component integrity and ensure optimal respiratory protection.

Application of the 3M Full-Face Respirator

This respirator is a component of 3M powered air-purifying systems such as versaflo and Powerflow, as well as 3M supplied air systems. One of its key advantages is the polycarbonate lens, which provides proven eye and face protection during decontamination tasks.

Restrictions on the Use of the 3M Full-Face Respirator

Do not use this respirator for sandblasting or in environments where aerosol concentrations exceed 1000 times the permissible exposure limit set by CNESST or other applicable government regulations. This full-face respirator should only be used in areas without oxygen deficiency risks unless paired with a supplied air system.

Maintenance and Lifespan of the 3M Full-Face Respirator

For optimal and safe performance, follow the manufacturer's recommendations. 3M advises inspecting the equipment before each use, cleaning it after use, and storing it in its packaging when not in use. During cleaning, avoid solvents and alcohols, which may weaken system components and reduce effectiveness. Wash the respirator with mild soapy water, then soak it in a bleach solution (1 mL bleach per 1 L water) for two minutes. Once dry, store the equipment in its packaging away from sunlight and extreme temperatures. The filter should be stored separately to prevent contamination.

Usage Tips for the 3M Full-Face Respirator

This full-face respirator is especially recommended for decontamination work and industrial environments with high contaminant concentrations. It should not be used in oxygen-deficient areas unless equipped with a supplied air system. It is not suitable for sandblasting or situations where aerosol concentrations exceed 1000 times the permissible exposure limit according to CNESST or applicable regulations.
