- A high-capacity, rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery pack designed exclusively for the 3M Versaflo TR-300 and TR-300+ Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) systems, it serves as the primary or backup power source to drive the motorized blower unit that filters breathing air for the wearer
Uses
- Full-Shift Respiratory Power:
- Specifically used to power the TR-300/TR-300+ turbo blower units across extended work shifts
- Demanding Industrial Environments:
- Deployed heavily in pharmaceutical manufacturing, healthcare facilities, welding, painting, and heavy industrial maintenance where consistent respiratory protection is mandatory
- Fleet Management Spare:
- Stocked as a hot-swappable replacement pack to keep workers moving without waiting around a charger
Features
- Extended Operational Runtime:
- Delivers 8 to 12 hours of continuous airflow on a single charge under optimal conditions (with a clean filter and new battery)
- Rapid Charge Cycles:
- Recharges to full capacity in less than 3.5 hours, drastically reducing equipment downtime between shifts
- Integrated LED Charge Indicator:
- Features an onboard visual display that allows workers to check the battery's charge level quickly, both on and off the charger
- Lithium-Ion Technology:
- Designed with advanced cell chemistry that resists memory effect, meaning you can top off the battery at any discharge level without reducing its total lifespan
- Lightweight Profile:
- Weighs only about 1 to 2.4 pounds, keeping the belt-mounted blower manageable and ergonomic for daily wear
Benefits
- Eliminates Mid-Shift Downtime:
- Unlike standard-capacity batteries that may require nursing toward the end of the day, the TR-332 comfortably clears long, grueling shifts without a recharge
- Enhances Worker Safety and Compliance:
- Ensures that the PAPR system continuously delivers an uninterrupted, positive flow of filtered air, which prevents dangerous particulate exposure and satisfies OSHA respiratory programs
- Improves Wearer Comfort:
- By reliably driving the motor, it eliminates extra breathing resistance and provides a cooling airflow that keeps the worker comfortable inside loose-fitting headgear
- Long-Term Cost Savings:
- Built as a durable asset rated for up to 250 charge cycles, minimizing recurring consumable costs when compared to single-use components
