"Determination of Particulate Filter Efficiency Level for R100 Series Filters Against Liquid Particulates for Non-Powered Air-Purifying Respirators Standard Test Procedure (STP)"

This procedure establishes the procedure for ensuring that the level of protection provided by the particulate filter efficiency level test for R100 series filters used on non-powered respirators submitted for Approval, Extension of Approval, or examined during Certified Product Audits, meet the minimum certification standards set forth in 42 CFR, Part 84, Subpart K, Section 84.181. These filters and filter cartridges may be integral components; mounted individually; used in conjunction with cartridges and canisters for chin-style, front-mounted, and back-mounted gas masks; or used in combination with gas-and-vapor or supplied-air respirators.

"Determination of Particulate Filter Efficiency Level for R95 Series Filters Against Liquid Particulates: Non-Powered Air-Purifying Respirators Standard Test Procedure (STP)"

This procedure establishes the means for ensuring that the level of protection provided by the particulate filter efficiency level test for R95 series filters used on non-powered respirators submitted for Approval, Extension of Approval, or examined during Certified Product Audits, meet the minimum certification standards set forth in 42 CFR, Part 84, Subpart K, Section 84.181. These filters and filter cartridges may be integral components; mounted individually; used in conjunction with cartridges and canisters for chin-style, front-mounted, and back-mounted gas masks; or used in combination with gas-and-vapor or atmosphere-supplying-air respirators.

"Determination of Particulate Filter Efficiency Level for N99 Series Filters Against Solid Particulates for Non-Powered, Air-Purifying Respirators Standard Test Procedure (STP)"

This procedure establishes the means for ensuring that the particulate filtering efficiency of N99 series filters used on non-powered respirators submitted for Approval, Extension of Approval, or examined during Certified Product Audits, meets the minimum certification standards set forth in 42 CFR,Part 84, Subpart K, §84.181. These filters or filter cartridges may be integral to respirator construction; mounted individually, or in sets of up to three; used in conjunction with cartridges and canisters for chin-style, front-mounted, and back-mounted gas masks; or used in combination with gas-and-vapor or atmosphere-supplying respirators. This STP describes the Determination of Particulate Filter Efficiency Level for N99 Series Filters Against Solid Particulates For Non-Powered, Air-Purifying Respirators test in sufficient detail that a person knowledgeable in the appropriate technical field can conduct the test and determine whether or not the product passes the test.

"Determination of Flammability and Heat Resistance, CBRN Air-Purifying Escape Respirators, Standard Testing Procedure (STP)"

This test establishes the procedure for ensuring that the level of protection provided by the Determination of CBRN Flammability and Heat Resistance, Escape Respirators Standard Testing Procedure submitted for Approval, Extension of Approval, or examined during Certified Product Audits meet the certification requirements set forth in 42 CFR Part 84, Subpart G, Section 84.63 (a)(c)(d); Volume 60, Number 110, June 8, 1995 and the Statement of Standard for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Air-Purifying Escape Respirator Dated September 30, 2003 or Statement of Standard for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Self-Contained Escape Respirator Dated September 30, 2003.

"Standard Test Procedure (STP): Determination of CBRN Acid Gases (Cyanogen Chloride) Service-Life Test, Loose-Fitting Powered Air-Purifying Respirators (PAPR)"

This test establishes the procedure for ensuring that the level of protection provided by the CBRN Acid Gases (Cyanogen Chloride) Service Life Test, Loose-Fitting Powered Air-Purifying Respirators Standard Test Procedure submitted for Approval, Extension of Approval, or examined during Certified Product Audits, meet the minimum certification standards set forth in 42 CFR Part 84, Subpart G, 84.63(a)(c)(d); Volume 60, Number 110, June 8, 1995 and the Statement of Standard for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Powered Air-Purifying Respirator (PAPR). This STP describes Determination of CBRN Acid Gases (Cyanogen Chloride) Service Life Test, Loose-Fitting Powered Air-Purifying Respirators Standard Testing Procedure in sufficient detail that a person knowledgeable in the appropriate technical field can select equipment with the necessary resolution, conduct the test and determine whether the product passes the test.
