Face-mounted PAPRs provide all the features of powered air purifying respirators: increased wearer comfort and compatibility with glasses. The respirator helps provide respiratory protection and may increase wearer productivity without the need to wear a motorized blower unit at the waist. Powered Air Purifying Respirators (PAPR) are motorized systems powered by a battery pack which draw air through a filter or cartridge to provide respiratory protection to the wearer. The blower unit can be mounted on the waist, face, or head, depending on the system selected. Potential benefits include: - Certain PAPR systems provide a higher level of respiratory protection than non-powered air filtering respirators - Constant flow of air can provide cooling for the worker, resulting in greater comfort for the wearer - Battery-powered blower pulls the air through the filter resulting in no additional breathing resistance to the wearer The 3M™ Powerflow™ System delivers a minimum of 4cfm when used with the filter. It uses the popular 6000 Series facepiece and its faceshield meets impact and penetration requirements of ANSI Z87.1-2003. The complete system includes the medium full facepiece, 6800DIN, motor blower unit, battery pack, and flow meter. Approved for use with high efficiency particulate filter only. - Eight-hour battery - Lightweight and well-balanced - Ideal for lead, asbestos and other hazardous particulates
