Common Organic Vapours and Minimum Indication Level (MIL)
NOTE: This is NOT a list of what the 6051i and 6055i may be used for. See right
for a list of common organic vapours and their associated MILs. In order to rely
on the 3MTM Service Life Indicator as a primary method for determining when
to change lters, both of the following conditions must be met:
Worker exposure levels ≥ MIL, AND MIL ≤ occupational exposure limit.
Please refer to the 3M ESLI software at 3M.eu/SLS to help determine if you
can rely on the indicator as a primary change-out method.
