Honeywell 068-550030M 5500 SERIES LOW MAINTENANCE HALF MASK RESPIRATOR

5500 SERIES LOW MAINTENANCE HALF MASK RESPIRATOR

THE HONEYWELL 5500 SERIES LOW MAINTENANCE HALF MASK RESPIRATOR IS A MOUTHPIECE CARTRIDGE RESPIRATOR THAT PROVIDES PARTICLE FILTER PROTECTION AGAINST NONTOXIC GASES AND VAPORS WITH MAXIMUM CONCENTRATIONS OF 100 PPM (PARTS PER MILLION) FOR AT LEAST four hours.

The 5500 Series Low Maintenance Half Mask Respirator offers high quality at a low price. These respirators meet or exceed NIOSH 42 CFR 84compliant filter performance, but without the added cost of NIOSH approvals for a wide range of particulates and gases. The economical choice for high-volume needs, these masks help to keep you safe in an emergency.

Honeywell offers a variety of half masks designed for comfort and easy use while working with hazardous material. The 5500 Series Low Maintenance Half Mask Respirator is the right choice for protecting yourself against airborne particulates. These half masks are made with light weight materials and will fit to your face with minimal effort, unlike complex metal masks.

The 5500 Series half mask respirators offer a comfortable, low-maintenance alternative to conventional disposable soft silicone rubber or PVC masks. Designed for an all day wear, the 5500 Series has replaceable filters, which are available in both P100 and R95 varieties.

Workers engaged in various occupations may require a dust/mist respirator to protect them from dusts or certain mist-like contaminants. These low maintenance half mask respirators include facial pieces that are similar to facepieces for completely enclosed positive pressure atmosphere equipment except they have the addition of a mechanical filter positioned in front of the user's mouth. They are typically constructed of transparent, electrically conductive plastic - with some exceptions made for special purpose (lead) use.

Honeywell's advanced materials science and engineering team devised a way to reduce the need for compressed air, foam cartridges or pre-filters in their low maintenance half mask respirators. With these changes you get better breathing resistance, easier maintenance, longer filter life and an overall more comfortable respirator.

This LOW MAINTENANCE half mask allows unfiltered air to enter the face piece through an air inlet, and the face piece provides positive pressure to the eyes and nose of user to protect him/her from airborne particles. The air supply hose(s) attach to the mask body at the top. The separate exhalation valve cap is attached at the bottom. The valve cap allows the exhaled breath to escape, but prevents outside contaminated air that may have entered through the exhalation valve from re-entering the facepiece.
