Eye and Face Protection
WARNING
Because the faceshields of the 3M™ Airstream™ Headgear Mounted PAPR System can be raised
from the normal position, ANSI Z87.1-2003/ CSA Z94.3 states that safety spectacles or goggles
must be worn in conjunction with this respirator. Failure to do so may result in serious eye injury.
Assigned Protection Factor
3M recommends an assigned protection factor (APF) of 25 for loose fitting facepiece respirators.
Where local, state, or federal standards specify APFs, the lowest applicable APF should be used. In
Canada, follow the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction and CSA Standard Z94.4.
