Help protect your workforce: 3M offers a free online tool to help you select the appropriate respirators, cartridges, and filters for your workplace respiratory hazards and contaminants and help determine cartridge change-out schedules. 3M Select and Service Life Software (www.3M.com/sls) contains more than 700 different chemicals and provides documentation of your choices. After you've determined the contaminants and exposure levels in your work environment, help protect your employees with a properly fitted 3M Reusable Respirator and corresponding N95 or P95 particulate filter. 3M Bayonet Particulate Prefilters are NIOSH-approved as either N95 or P95 particulate filters and help provide respiratory protection in environments containing certain oil (P95) and non-oil (N95) based particulates when used with 3M Half and Full facepieces and the 3M Filter Retainer, 501. These filters help provide respiratory protection from particulate contaminant concentrations up to 10 times the OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) with half facepieces and up to 50 times the OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) with quantitatively fit tested full facepieces. Not for use in environments that are immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH) or require the use of a filter approved to 100 level filter efficiency (N100 to P100). Change your 3M Bayonet Particulate Prefilters if they become dirty, damaged, or difficult to breathe through.
