Prefilter for 3M TR-600 Versaflo powered air purifying respirators

Versaflo TR 600 prefilter

Manufacturer code 3M: TR‑6600

Designed for professionals seeking durable and high‑performance respiratory protection, the Versaflo TR 600 prefilter provides a first essential barrier against particles and contaminants. 

Its role is to retain larger particles before they reach the main filter, thereby reducing premature clogging of HEPA filters and improving the longevity of the system. By protecting the filtering elements, it helps maintain a constant airflow, stable performance and reliable respiratory protection, even in dusty or contaminated environments. Its lightweight and flexible design allows quick installation and easy replacement in the field.

This prefilter must be used in combination with a filter cover which must correspond to the filtering element.

One can also use the prefilter and the RVTR662 spark arrestor at the same time as long as the spark arrestor is installed first. Please note that only the TR-600 Versaflo offers the possibility to use both these accessories in combination.

By choosing the Versaflo TR 600 prefilter, you optimize the lifespan of your filters, reduce your maintenance costs and ensure more effective respiratory protection on a daily basis.
