3M N95 NIOSH 42 CFR 84 approved particulate respirator. Model 9210

3M N95 Respiratory Protection Mask: a high-performance and comfortable solution

Manufacturer 3M, reference 9210

The 3M model 9210 respirator mask is an essential piece of personal protective equipment for professionals exposed to fine particles. Certified N95 according to NIOSH standards, it effectively filters solid and non-oil-based liquid particles. Its innovative three-panel design allows optimal adaptation to different facial shapes while facilitating breathing. Lightweight and foldable, this disposable mask is sold in boxes of 20 units, ideal for industrial, medical, or construction environments.

This mask was designed to fold, making it versatile. Indeed, its design was specifically developed to offer better visibility thanks to its low-profile shape. It is compact, easily transportable, and individually wrapped. The braided straps are stapled to the respirator, and the nose area features an adjustable clip covered with foam. This allows workers to achieve better sealing without compromising comfort. The upper panel of the mask is now embossed to further reduce fogging, making it even easier to wear with safety glasses. Additionally, the new chin tab allows for even more precise placement and adjustment, as it is easier to grasp with the fingers.

Provides basic protection for workers. Compatible with safety glasses.

Certified protection against solid and liquid particles.

Application of the N95 respirator Mask

This respiratory protection mask was designed for long-duration work where the worker is exposed to hot and humid temperatures. It is ideal for workers involved in grinding, sanding, and other dusty operations. It is also effective against solid particles released during the processing of minerals, iron ore, coal, flour, or certain other substances. It also protects against liquid particles from non-oil-based aerosols that do not emit harmful vapors. NIOSH-approved masks (N95, N100, R95, R100, P95, and P100) offer a sufficient level of protection against silica, the second leading cause of chronic respiratory problems after asbestos.

Biological Particles

This respirator helps reduce inhalation exposure to certain airborne biological particles, such as mold, Bacillus anthracis (anthrax), Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Koch’s bacillus) responsible for tuberculosis, pandemic flu viruses (H5N1, H1N1), etc. However, it cannot completely eliminate the risk of infection, illness, or disease. Due to the nature of certain biological contaminants, government agencies have not been able to determine exposure limits for all types of contaminants.

Features of the 3M N95 mask Model 9210: Comfort and Safety

This respiratory protection mask stands out for its advanced electrostatic filtration technology, which improves breathability without compromising safety. Its three-panel design follows facial movements, reducing leaks and increasing comfort. It contains no valve, making it suitable for sterile environments. Compliant with standard 42 CFR 84, it meets quality requirements for effective N95 respiratory protection.

Installing the 3M N95 respirator Mask: Instructions for Use

To properly install the 3M model 9210 mask, unfold the three panels and position the mask over the nose and mouth. Adjust the elastic bands behind the head to ensure a stable fit. Check the seal by gently inhaling and exhaling: the mask should press against the face without leaking. Proper installation ensures optimal respiratory protection against particles.

Maintaining the Disposable N95 mask: Usage Recommendations

This product is disposable, so there is no maintenance. It was designed with an estimated lifespan of 8 hours. This figure is for informational purposes only and should not be the sole tool for estimating the lifespan of your mask. Since each work environment is different, it is important to respect the limits established by the manufacturer.

Usage Tips for the 3M Respiratory Protection Mask

This N95 mask is recommended for environments where solid and non-oil-based liquid particles are present, such as construction sites, laboratories, or medical areas. It is not suitable for organic vapors or toxic gases. For maximum effectiveness, avoid touching the outer surface of the mask during use and replace it as soon as it becomes damp or damaged.

Restrictions

Do not use if the wearer has a beard or a condition that may prevent direct contact between the edge of the mask and the face. Do not use if you suffer from a respiratory illness such as asthma or emphysema. It is not recommended to use this mask when handling spray paint, oil-based aerosols, gases, vapors, asbestos, particles released during sandblasting, or aerosol concentrations exceeding 10 times the exposure limit allowed by CNESST or any other applicable government regulation. This respiratory protection mask should only be used in areas that do not present an oxygen deficiency risk.

When the mask is properly fitted and the qualitative fit test is successful, this respirator meets the ANSI Z92.2-1992 standard, providing a protection factor of 10. The worker can, therefore, be exposed to certain airborne contaminants up to a maximum of 10 times the established exposure limit. If needed, contact our customer service for further details.
