FFP3 masks | respiratory protection from uvex
Protection from poisonous and deleterious kinds of dust, smoke and aerosols.
With a filtering efficiency of at least 99%, FFP3 masks constitute the highest protection class. They filter up to 30 times the respective occupational exposure limit (OEL*) and are suitable for protecting against toxic particles, dusts and smoke.
Oncogenic and radioactive substances or pathogens such as viruses, bacteria and fungal spores are filtered by this protective class of respirator masks. The total leakage may amount to a maximum of 5%, MAK transgression to the thirtyfold value.
So that you can see the protection class at a glance, the marking is black on uvex FFP3 masks.
*OELs = The occupational exposure limit values (OELs) are the average concentration of a substance in the air in the workplace, up to which no damage (chronic or acute) is to be expected if employees work there for eight hours a day for five days a week. The OELs replace the maximum workplace concentration (MWC) and the technical reference concentration (TRC) – however, as long as both of these values are not yet fully taken into account in the OELs, they can still be used on an interim basis for assessing risks in the workplace.
