Respirator Filter
Selection Guide
Introduction
The information in this Guide is correct as at April 2013, and should be used in conjunction with general occupational hygiene
knowledge.
The actual workplace conditions will vary from one worksite to another. This information is intended only as a guide. Selection of the
most appropriate RPE will depend on the particular situation and should be made only by a competent person familiar with the working
conditions and limitations of RPE.
If you have any questions relating to the proper selection and use of 3M respirators, or the use of this Guide, contact your local 3M
OH&ES representative or call the 3M Health and Safety Helpline on 0870 60 800 60 in the UK, or 1800 320 500 in Ireland.
Respiratory Protective Equipment Selection
This Respirator Filter Selection Guide provides information on the appropriate 3M™ Filters to be used when using 3M Negative
Pressure and Powered Air respirators for nearly 700 chemicals. The guide also includes Workplace Exposure Limits (WELs) for these
substances, a brief summary of their acute effects, and if the 3M™ Monitor badges may be used to determine personal exposures.
Selection of RPE: Risk Assessment
Before selecting RPE, a full risk assessment must be performed. If the risk assessment concludes that control of personal exposure
is inadequate, employers must introduce preventative or control measures. If control of exposure is still deemed inadequate after the
measures have been introduced, RPE may be used as the last resort.
If the risk assessment recommends RPE to be worn, and once the workplace contaminants and their concentrations have been
identified, this guide can be used to help select appropriate 3M Filters for use with 3M Negative Pressure and Powered Air respirators.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT PROGRAMME
Four Step Guide
Before selecting Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE), a full risk assessment must be carried out in accordance with the relevant
health and safety legislation. Where respirators are used in the workplace, a formal RPE programme should be implemented. It should
include:




Identification of the hazard and risk assessment.
Education and training must be properly emphasised and conducted.
Maintenance, cleaning and storage programmes must be established and routinely followed for reusable respirators.
The whole programme must also be reviewed at regular intervals.
To correctly select RPE four basic steps should be followed:
1. Identify the potential hazard.
Before any selection of respiratory protective equipment can be made, it is important to identify the hazard against which you wish to
protect. These hazards can be divided into dusts, mists, fumes, gases and vapours. Consideration may need to be given to oxygen
deficiency and even extremes of temperature. No respirator is ideal for all these types of hazard. For example, respirators fitted with
dust filters will not protect against gases or vapours and gas/vapour filters will not protect against dusts.
2. Understand and assess the contaminant’s potential health effects.
Once the material against which you wish to provide protection has been identified, it is important to understand how that contaminant
may affect your body. This information forms a vital part of the training the users receive and allows them to understand why they
should wear the equipment provided. Also assess the level of contaminant in the workplace versus its Workplace Exposure Limit
(WEL).
3. Select the appropriate Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE).
The RPE comes in a wide variety of types, each suitable for a particular range of applications. Although the type of application of
certain RPE may overlap, no respirator is ideal for all applications and care should be taken to understand the limitations of any
respirator before selection. The respirator selected must be correct for the work, the environment and the wearer, and not interfere
with other PPE.
4. Train the employees in the use and care of the respirator.
Once the respirator has been correctly selected for a hazard, the application and the individual wearer, it is essential to train the wearer
in the correct fitting, use, maintenance and care of the respirator. It is also important to demonstrate the fitting of the respirator and
how to conduct a face fit check. A Face Fit test should be performed on wearers of respirators with tight fitting facepieces i.e. disposable
respirators and reusable half or full face masks.
SELECTION OF THE APPROPRIATE TYPE OF RPE
The nature of the hazard will determine the type of RPE chosen. RPE is designed specifically to deal with particular hazards, or a
combination of hazards. Dust respirators provide no protection from the effects of solvent vapour just as a vapour respirator provides
no respiratory protection against dusts. It is therefore essential that the RPE is correctly selected as a result of an accurate assessment.
Summary of the types of RPE
There are many types of RPE, but these can be broadly categorised into two types, 1) Air-filtering and 2) Air-supplying equipment.
1. Air-filtering Equipment
Equipment which takes in air from the work area and filters or cleans it before it is inhaled. These devices are referred to as air-filtering
devices and rely on lung power (negative pressure respirator) or an external power source to draw contaminated air through a filter
providing clean air to the breathing zone (powered air respirators).
2. Air-Supplying Equipment
Equipment which delivers uncontaminated air from an independent source to the wearer.
Gas and Vapour Negative Pressure Respirator Filters
Type A: For use against certain organic gases and vapours with a boiling point higher than 65C as specified by the manufacturer.
A filters, whatever the class, are required to be marked with at least the filter type, the colour code Brown together with the filter
class, e.g., A2.
Type B: For use against certain inorganic gases and vapours as specified by the manufacturer (excluding CO).
B filters, whatever the class, are required to be marked with at least the filter type, the colour code Grey together with the filter
class, e.g., B1
Type E: For use against sulphur dioxide and other acidic gases and vapours as specified by the manufacturer.
E filters, whatever the class, are required to be marked with at least the filter type, the colour code Yellow together with the filter
class, e.g., E1
Type K: For use against ammonia and organic ammonia derivatives as specified by the manufacturer.
K filters, whatever the class, are required to be marked with at least the filter type, the colour code Green, together with the filter
class, e.g., K2.
Type Hg-P3: For use against mercury. The filter incorporates a particulate filter. The filter must be marked with at least the filter
type, the colour code Red-White, together with the filter class, e.g., Hg-P3.
AX filters are for use against certain low boiling organic compounds. They are classified as in only one type and class, AX.
Combined filters for use against certain low boiling organic compounds, as specified by the manufacturer, and particles are
classified according to their particle efficiency: Types AXP1, AXP2 and AXP3.
AX filters should only be fitted to the 3M full face masks.
There is no AX filter available for 3M Powered Respirators.
AX filters must be marked with at least the filter type, the colour code Brown together with the filter class. AXP3 filters are colour
coded Brown-White.
Filter Combinations
If a filter is a combination of types, it shall meet the requirements of each type separately. The filter must also be marked with at least
the filter type, and with each colour code. For example an ABEK2P3 filter will be marked, Brown, Grey, Yellow, Green and White.
RESPIRATOR CHARACTERISTICS, CAPABILITIES & LIMITATIONS
Limitations of RPE
A respirator may not be able to protect against all of the contaminants present in a particular work environment. Specific limitations
are stated on the packaging and are included with use instructions and limitations. These must be carefully reviewed for each respirator
before use. General precautionary information is given below. Refer to respirator packaging or operating manuals for specific
information.
No respirator is capable of preventing all airborne contaminants from entering the wearer’s breathing zone. RPE helps protect against
airborne contaminants by reducing airborne contaminant concentrations in the breathing zone to below the WEL or other recommended
exposure level. Misuse of respirators may result in over exposure to the contaminant and cause sickness or disability. For this reason,
proper respirator selection, training, use and maintenance is required for the wearer to be properly protected.
General Use Instructions for RPE
 Failure to follow all instructions and limitations on the use of these respirators and/or failure to wear them during all times of
exposure can reduce respirator effectiveness and may result in sickness or disability.
 Many of the contaminants which can be hazardous to a person's health include the ones that are so small they cannot be seen or
smelled at dangerous levels.
 Before use of any respirator, the wearer must first be trained by the employer in proper respirator use in accordance with applicable
safety and health regulations.
 Leave the contaminated area immediately if dizziness or other distress occurs, if the respirator becomes damaged or breathing
becomes difficult, if contaminants can be smelled or tasted, or if irritation occurs.
Always be sure that the respirator is:




Suitable for the job
Fitted properly on the face
Worn for entire work period
Replaced when necessary
General Use Limitations:
 Air-filtering or purifying respirators do not supply oxygen, they simply filter out contaminants.
 Do not use when concentrations of contaminants are immediately dangerous to life or health, when concentrations are unknown,
when concentrations exceed maximum use concentrations established by regulatory agencies or in atmospheres containing less
than 19.5% oxygen (3M definition. Individual countries may apply their own limits on oxygen deficiency. Please seek advice if in
doubt).
 Do not abuse or misuse any respirator.
 Do not use tight fitting RPE with beards, facial hair, or conditions that prevent direct contact between the face and the edge of the
respirator.
 Mixtures of chemicals need to be treated with care as the effects of mixtures of chemicals can be additive or even synergistic. In
all cases the HSE publication EH40 should be consulted for the treatment and calculation of combining WELs.
 Approvals and WELs may vary from country to country and from time to time. UK, Eire and European legislation should be
consulted before using this guide. The USA and Canada use different criteria for selection and this guide is therefore not valid in
the USA or Canada.
 Specialist protective equipment not described in this guide may be required for use against chemicals with poor warning properties,
areas potentially deficient in oxygen (less than 19.5%) and concentrations of contaminant Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health
(IDLH). In these cases your local 3M OH&ES representative or the 3M Health and Safety Helpline (0870 60 800 60 UK or 1800
320 500 Ireland) should be consulted for further advice.
 All information contained in the table and these notes has been compiled using reasonable skill and diligence and is offered in
good faith, but 3M can accept no responsibility for any errors or omissions contained in this guide.
Caution: as with any respirator, incorrect use or failure to follow the instructions given could result in severe illness or permanent
disability due to exposure to hazardous atmosphere. If in doubt about how to use the respirator, check with your supervisor or contact
3M.
Effects From Skin or Eye contact
If a chemical can be absorbed through the skin or eyes additional protection may be required.
LIMITATION OF FILTERS
Chemical Filters
Chemical filters are used on respirators to help remove and lower worker exposures to harmful gases and vapours in the
workplace. There are several types of chemical filters:






Organic vapour.
Inorganic vapour.
Acid gases.
Ammonia.
Formaldehyde.
Mercury vapour.
It is important to understand how the different filter types work. All chemical filters consist of a container filled with a sorbent. A
chemical filter sorbent is a granular porous material that interacts with the gas or vapour molecule to remove it from the air.
Typically this sorbent is activated carbon or activated charcoal. Activated carbon is an amorphous form of carbon characterised
by high adsorptivity for many gases and vapours.
The carbon for respirators usually comes from coconut shells or coal. The carbon is ‘activated’ by heating it to 800-900oC with
heat or steam, which results in a porous internal structure (honeycomb-like). The internal surface area of activated carbon
averages over 900 metres square per gramme.
Adsorption of Chemicals
This large surface area makes activated carbon ideal for the removal of organic vapours by adsorption. Adsorption is the
adherence of gas or vapour molecules to the surface of the activated carbon. The attractive force between the activated carbon
and the chemical molecule is a relatively small, weak physical force. The strength of the attraction depends in part on the
chemical. Since only weak physical forces are involved, the process can be reversed. This is called desorption.
Desorption & Migration of Chemicals
Desorption is the process of an adsorbed material "letting go" from the activated carbon. Desorption can occur naturally during
periods of non-use or by the presence of another more strongly adsorbed substance displacing a less strongly adsorbed
chemical (i.e., a more volatile chemical). Generally, the more volatile the chemical the less strongly adsorbed, or the more likely
it will undergo desorption. Desorption during storage or non-use times can result in chemical migration. Migration is the
movement of a previously adsorbed chemical through the chemical filter, even without air movement.
Variables that appear to impact migration include:





Volatility – the more volatile the chemicals, the greater the concern for migration.
Water vapour co-adsorption – co-adsorption [from use in atmospheres with high relative humidity (>50%)] can increase the
migration effect.
Amount of material adsorbed onto the filter in the first use.
Storage time.
Vapour type.
The potentials for desorption and migration makes reuse of organic vapour filters a concern. Not only are the more volatile
chemicals more likely to desorb but the capacity of the carbon is generally lower for these chemicals. This includes many
inorganic gases and organic vapours. Inorganic gas desorption is prevented by the use of special filters. For organic vapours
Europe uses a boiling point of less than 65oC as a guideline for identifying the more volatile chemicals. These chemicals are
often classified as low boiling chemicals. Typical organic vapour filters would be expected to have lower capacity for these
materials and desorption could be a major concern.
Chemisorption
To make the filters more selective for certain chemicals, sorbents can be impregnated with chemical reagents. Impregnated
activated carbon removes specific gas and vapour molecules by chemisorption. Chemisorption is the formation of bonds
between molecules of the impregnate and the chemical contaminant. These bonds are much stronger than the attractive forces
of physical adsorption. The binding is usually irreversible. Reuse of chemical filters that work on the principle of chemisorption
typically should not be a problem. In combination chemical filters, such as organic vapours and acid gases, the organic vapours
are predominantly removed by adsorption.
HOW TO USE THE RESPIRATOR FILTER SELECTION GUIDE
The Respirator Filter Selection Guide lists appropriate 3M filters for 3M Negative Pressure and Powered Air Respirators
for nearly 700 substances.
As many of the substances have synonyms commonly in use, APPENDIX 1 presents a list of substances which are listed
in this guide under another name. For example Isopropyl alcohol is listed as Propan-2-ol.
APPENDIX 2 presents the CAS numbers for the substances listed in the guide.
Terminology used in the Guide
Workplace Exposure Limits (WEL)
The WELs listed in this guide are from the HSE publication: EH40/2002 Occupational Exposure Limits 2005, unless
otherwise stated.
If a chemical was not listed in EH40/2005, the Threshold Limit Values (TLV) published in the 2006 American Conference
of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) were used. If there was no published ACGIH TLV available, the 2006
Workplace Environmental Exposure Levels (WEEL) from the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) were used.
Substances not assigned WEL
EH40/2005 states that: the absence of a substance from the lists of WELs does not indicate that it is safe. In these cases
exposure should be controlled to a level to which nearly all the working population could be exposed, day after day at
work, without adverse effects on health. In some cases there may be sufficient information to set a self-imposed working
standard.
If no WEL were listed in either of the sources, for a dust a WEL of 10 milligrams per cubic metre (mg/m³) 8 hour TWA has
been assigned (Total Inhalable Dust). These substances are listed in the guide as WEL 10 mg/m³.
Worker’s exposure must be kept below the WEL. Additionally, exposure to substance identified as causing cancer,
sensitisation or heritable genetic damage must be reduced to as low a level as is reasonably practicable.
Threshold Limit Values
The TLVs from the ACGIH refer to airborne concentrations of substances and represent conditions under which it is
believed that nearly all workers may be repeatedly exposed day after day without adverse health effects.
Units of Measurement
The concentrations are expressed in:
 ppm (parts per million)
 mg/m3 (milligrams per cubic metre)
 f/ ml (fibres per millilitre).
Concentrations measured in mg/m3 in this guide refer to the Total Inhalable Dust (TID) fraction unless otherwise stated.
The WELs are approved for use where the atmospheric pressure is between 900 and 1100 millibars.
HOW TO USE THE RESPIRATOR FILTER SELECTION GUIDE (cont.)
WEL Reference Periods
There are two reference periods for which the WELs may be set; 8 hour Time Weighted Average (TWA) and 15 minute
Short Term Exposure Limit (STEL). A substance may be assigned WELs set at either one or both reference periods.
 8 hour TWA - Some adverse health effects require prolonged or accumulated exposure. The 8 hour TWA is to set to
control these effects by restricting the total intake by inhalation over one or more shifts.
 15 minute STEL - Some adverse health effects may be seen after short exposures. 15 minute STEL may be applied
to control these effects. For a substance assigned a 15 minute STEL MEL, this level of exposure should never be
exceeded.
In addition to the 2 reference periods above other reference periods apply.
Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH)
This is the concentration considered Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) as defined by the National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) in their 1994 publication (PB-94-195047). NIOSH defines IDLH concentration
as "that poses a threat of exposure to airborne contaminants when that exposure is likely to cause death or immediate or
delayed permanent adverse health effects or prevent escape from such an environment."
Odour Threshold
The method of defining and determining odour thresholds varies widely, thereby giving rise to a significant range of
reported odour thresholds for many substances. Individuals may also respond differently to the same odour. At a given
concentration, one person may smell and recognise the odour, while another person may barely notice it. The odour
thresholds reported in the literature are typically determined for a single constituent, with no other chemicals present in the
air. The single constituent situation rarely occurs in the workplace. Therefore, caution must be exercised in using these
numbers. They may not be representative of odour detection capabilities of individual workers in your workplace. On the
other hand, experience may indicate better warning properties than those indicated by the reported value. For these
reasons, it is recommended that a gas/vapour filter change-out schedule be implemented rather than using odour
properties as the primary indicator for filter change-out. Ranges of reported odour thresholds are listed. These have been
obtained from a variety of publications. The primary reference was the AIHA publication. This publication was produced to
develop better odour threshold reference information for chemicals with TLV. When an odour threshold value was not
published by AIHA, the other references were used.
AP Filter Combinations
These compounds have been identified as possibly existing in both particulate and vapour phase by Perez and Soderholm.
For these compounds 3M recommends that a gas vapour filter be used in addition to the traditionally accepted particulate
filter.
