Description
The 3M™ 9900 Specialty Series Respirators have been developed
for particular working environments. The 9900 Specialty Series
Respirators provide e ective respiratory protection against
exposure to solid particles and/or non-volatile liquid particles as
well as o ering relief from certain gases/vapours. They can be
used for a wide range of applications from mining and weed
spraying to waste sorting.
Tested and Certifi ed to AS/NZS 1716:2003•
Carbon layer provides protection against nuisance levels of •
certain gases/vapours (i.e. below Exposure Standards).
Traditional convex shape, with nose clip and twin strap design. •
Durable, collapse resistant inner shell•
R e l i a b l e , e  ective protection against fi ne particles.•
3M™ Advanced Electret Filter Material gives e ective fi ltration •
with low breathing resistance for consistent high quality
performance
3M™ Cool Flow™ exhalation valve o ers improved comfort in •
hot humid environments and/or where work is hard and physical*.
3M™ 9913 and 3M™ 9913V respirators contain a galvanised •
steel noseclip suitable for use in underground coal mines and
are 3M recommended for use against diesel particulate.
Materials
The following materials are used in the production of the
9900 Specialty Series Respirators:
Straps • Polyester / Polyisoprene
Staples • Steel
Nose Foam • Polyurethane
Nose Clip • Aluminium /Galvanised Steel
Filter • Polyester / Polypropylene / Carbon
Valve* • Polypropylene
Valve diaphragm* • Polyisoprene
These products do not contain components made from natural
rubber latex.
Maximum mass of products:
• Unvalved (9913 & 9915) = 13g
• Valved (9913V, 9916 & 9926) = 18g
Standards
These products meet the requirements of Australian / New Zealand
Standard AS/NZS 1716:2003 for Respiratory protective devices.
They should be used to protect the wearer from solid and non-
volatile liquid particles and certain gases/vapours only.
Products are classifi ed by fi ltering e ciency and maximum total
inward leakage performance (P1 & P2), also by organic vapour fi lter
capacity (Type G).
P1 Filters are intended for use against mechanically generated
particulates such as those generated from sanding, grinding, drilling,
sweeping etc.
P2 Filters are intended for use against both mechanically and
thermally generated particulates e.g welding, brazing etc. P2 fi lters
may also help reduce breathing in pathogenic biological airborne
particulates such as infl uenza virus.
Type G Filters are intended for use against organic compounds with
low vapour pressure i.e. less than 1.3Pa (0.01mm Hg) at 25°C (this
includes most agricultural chemicals)
Approvals
These respirators have been produced to comply with the
requirements of the Australian /New Zealand Standard AS/NZS
1716:2003 under an agreed production certifi cation scheme
operated during manufacture in accordance with the SAI Global
StandardsMark programme.
Applications
These respirators are suitable for use in concentrations of solid and
non-volatile liquid particles up to the following limits:
Model AS/NZS 1716

Respiratory protection is only e ective if it is correctly selected, fi tted and
worn throughout the time when the wearer is exposed to hazards.
