Swine Flu Face Masks

The World Health Organization has raised its alert over the spread of swine flu to level six - its highest alert level.

The Health and Safety Executive currently recommends the use of highest efficiency filters (P3 - e.g. Protex S3 EN 149 FFP3S) for protection against viruses1 , advice which is repeated by the Health Protection Agency (HPA)2 and the Department of Health3 in the case of pandemic influenza.

S3 protects against particulate dusts, fumes and pollens. It is at least 98% effective against fine dusts and can be used for protection where the level of contamination is up to 20 times the Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL).

These respirators meet the exacting requirements of EN149 FFP3S whilst retaining the fit and comfort factors established by the Protex range. In many of the more demanding working environments the S3 has proved a technically advanced yet light, comfortable and cost effective solution.

As S3 but with additional exhalation valve.

VALVED
The Protex exhalation valve has been designed and tested to offer a combination of low inhalation and exhalation resistance, the result being decreased temperatures inside the respirator. The valve dispels heat, humidity and exhaled CO2 within the respirator. In more demanding work conditions the Protex valved option offers an improved working environment.
