3M™ Advanced Particulate P100 Replacement Filter with Acid Gas Relief 2296

Package of 2 - Genuine 3M™ 2296 Advanced Particulate Replacement Filter, P100, with Nuisance Level Acid Gas Relief* has a minimum filtering efficiency rating of 99.97% for aerosols (e.g., dust, mists, fumes, smoke, mold, bacteria, etc). 3M™ advanced filter medium technology provides superior filtration with fewer layers, meaning easier breathing. NIOSH approved for environments containing certain oil and non-oil based particles, including welding fumes. Use with all 3M™ respirators with bayonet connections.

3M™ 2296 filter cartridges feature easier breathing compared with 3M™ 2096 filter cartridges. Advanced Particulate filter medium requires fewer layers, resulting in easier breathing.

When properly fitted, use in a variety of applications including welding, brazing, torch cutting, metal pouring, soldering, and exposure to lead, asbestos, cadmium, arsenic, and MDA for concentrations up to 10 times the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) with half facepiece respirators or 50 times PEL with full facepiece respirators. Full facepiece respirators must be quantitatively fit tested to claim assigned protection factor above 10 in negative pressure mode.

*3M recommended for relief against nuisance levels of acid gases. Nuisance level refers to concentrations less than the OSHA PEL or applicable governmental occupational exposure limits, whichever is lower. Do not use for respiratory protection against acid gases or organic vapors. Do not use in environments that are immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH).
