Approvals
These products meet the requirements of the European
Community Directive 89/686/EEC (Personal Protective Equipment
Directive) and are thus CE marked. Certification under Article
10, EC Type-Examination, has been issued for these products
by INSPEC International Limited, 56 Leslie Hough Way, Salford,
Greater Manchester M6 6AJ, UK (Notified Body number 0194).
Certification under Article 11, EC quality control, has been issued
by BSI Product Services (Notified Body number 0086).
Standards
These products meet the requirements of recently amended
European Standard EN 149:2001 + A1:2009, filtering facepiece
respirators for use against particles. They should be used to
protect the wearer from solid and non-volatile liquid particles only.
Products are classified by filtering efficiency and maximum total
inward leakage performance (FFP1, FFP2 and FFP3), also by
usability and clogging resistance.
Performance tests in this standard include filter penetration;
extended exposure (loading) test; flammability; breathing
resistance and total inward leakage. Reusable products are also
subjected to cleaning, storage and mandatory clogging resistance
tests (clogging is optional for non reusable products). A full copy
of EN 149:2001+A1:2009 can be purchased from your national
standards body.
Designations:
R = Reusable
NR = Non reusable (single shift use only)
D = Meets the clogging resistance requirements
Applications
These respirators are suitable for use in concentrations of solid
and non-volatile liquid particles up to the following limits:
Model EN 149+A1
Classification

8710E / 8710S FFP1 NR D Unvalved 4
8812 FFP1 NR D Valved 4
8810 FFP2 NR D Unvalved 12
8822 FFP2 NR D Valved 12
Respiratory protection is only effective if it is correctly selected,
fitted and worn throughout the time when the wearer is exposed
to hazards.
