Respiratoare cu purificare a aerului acționată electric (PAPR)

If you have facial hair and require RPE, you will already undoubtedly know that the two things are not generally compatible. This is because facial hair, even very short stubble, can cause air leaks that render tight-fitting RPE useless.

Our range of powered air respirators is a great solution for those with facial hair and those working long hours or carrying out strenuous labour. A powered respirator setup offers protection by creating a pocket of filtered positive air around the wearer's face, ensuring no contaminates inhaled. As there is no resistance when inhaling, the requirement for a break or rest periods is no longer necessary, meaning you can work for longer without interruption.

With replaceable filter cartridges and a wide range of spares available, these loose-fitting respirators offer a long service life and high levels of protection for the user. Like many RPE systems, battery powered fresh air respirators are not a one-size-fits-all solution, so they still need careful consideration before deployment.

We have detailed some of the key features and benefits you should consider when buying a Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) setup.

Disposable Dust Masks

These disposable masks are designed to be worn for a single shift and then disposed of.

Half Mask Respirators

Covering only the nose and mouth, these half-face masks are ideal for use with goggles and ear defenders.

Full-Face Respirators

These masks cover the whole face, including the eyes, nose and mouth. This makes the masks ideal for areas with contaminates in the air that could irritate the eyes.
