The 3M Replacement P95 Particulate Filter 5P71 helps provide respiratory protection against a wide range of oil and non-oil based particulate contaminants. MUST BE USED with appropriate 3M 5000 Series Respirators or 6000 Series Cartridges for various applications including spray painting, lacquering, petrochemical and chemical manufacturing, and pesticide spraying and agriculture for concentrations up to 10 times the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) with half facepieces, or 50 times PEL with quantitatively fit tested full facepieces. When used with the appropriate respirator, the filter protects against: 1) solids such as those from processing minerals, coal, iron ore, cotton, flour, and certain other substances; 2) liquids or oil based particles from sprays that do not emit harmful vapors; and 3) metal fumes produced from welding, brazing, cutting, and other operations involving heating of metals. This filter has been rated P95, which means it filters at least 95% of airborne particles and is strongly resistant to oil. Warning: Respirators help protect against certain airborne contaminants. Before use, the wearer must read and understand the User Instructions provided as a part of the product packaging. Follow all local regulations. In the U.S., a written respiratory protection program must be implemented meeting all the requirements of OSHA 29 CFR 1910. 134 including training, fit testing and medical evaluation. In Canada, CSA standards Z94. 4 requirements must be met and/or requirements of the applicable jurisdiction, as appropriate. Misuse may result in sickness or death.
