Qualitative fit test kit
May 1st 2008 A Bitrex qualitative fit test kit has
been introduced by Scott Health &
Safety to complement the
quantitative fit test adaptors it offers
for all its respirators.
The new qualitative kit provides
an alternative test method and is
suitable for half mask respirators.
The test procedure is
straightforward. Users wear their
respirator inside a hood and a
Bitrex aerosol is sprayed in. The
user carries out some exercises to
simulate work movements and, if
they cannot detect the bitter taste
of the aerosol, the test is
satisfactory.
The kit is designed to ensure
that the respirator fits well to
adequately protect the wearer. More articles from Scott Health & Safety Ltd: |
