- A complete, heavy-duty Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) Assembly designed for environments with high particulate concentrations
Uses
- Spark and Heat Environments:
- Ideal for grinding, welding, metal fabrication, and foundry work where a rugged, spark-resistant belt is necessary
- General Industrial Applications:
- Extensively used in construction, woodworking, aggregate handling, and demolition to protect against airborne dust and mist
- Standard-Length Shifts:
- Deployed for daily operations that fall within typical 4-to-8-hour windows
Features
- Leather Subsystems:
- Outfitted with a heavy-duty leather belt (TR-326) that protects the wearer and equipment from sparks, minor weld spatter, and abrasion
- Standard-Capacity Battery:
- Powered by the TR-330 lithium-ion battery, providing a lighter payload on the waist while delivering 4 to 6 hours of runtime
- Two Selectable Flow Rates:
- Features a toggle switch allowing users to select between 6.5 CFM (Standard) and 7.2 CFM (High) for maximum cooling and comfort
- Dual Sensory Alarms:
- Incorporates both an audible and visual alarm that actively alerts the wearer to low battery levels or restricted airflow
- Electronic Flow Control:
- Automatically manages motor speed to compensate for filter loading, ensuring a steady stream of air is delivered
Benefits
- Reduces Fatigue:
- The standard-capacity battery lowers the overall weight on the user's waist, making the belt-mounted blower highly ergonomic and comfortable for constant movement
- Enhanced Durability Against Heat:
- The leather belt won't melt or degrade under stray sparks, providing peace of mind and reducing the frequency of belt replacement in hot-work zones
- Reliable Positive-Pressure Protection:
- When paired with a loose-fitting Versaflo hood, it eliminates the need for mandatory fit testing, safely accommodating workers with facial hair or prescription eyewear
- Turnkey Convenience:
- Provides all the essential blower and power components in one package, simplifying procurement and ensuring strict NIOSH-approved system compatibility out of the box
