N95 respirator

Image
An N95 respirator is a commonly-used, abbreviated name for an N95 filtering facepiece respirator , which is a particulate-filtering facepiece respirator that meets the U.S. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) N95 classification of air filtration, meaning that it filters at least 95% of airborne particles. This standard does not require that the respirator be resistant to oil; another standard, P95, adds that requirement. The N95 type is the most common particulate-filtering facepiece respirator. It is an example of a mechanical filter respirator, which provides protection against particulates but not against gases or vapors. An authentic N95 respirator is marked with the text "NIOSH" or the NIOSH logo, the filter class ("N95"), a "TC" approval number of the form XXX-XXXX, the approval number must be listed on the NIOSH Certified Equipment List (CEL) or the NIOSH Trusted-Source page, and it must have headbands instead of ear loops

Use

Fit testing is a critical component to a respiratory protection program whenever workers use tight-fitting respirators. OSHA (US) requires an initial respirator fit test to identify the right model, style, and size respirator for each worker; as well, as annual fit tests. Additionally, tight-fitting respirators, including the N95, require a user seal check each time one is put on. Facial hair at the sealing area of the respirator will cause it to leak. Respirators require a medical evaluation before use because they can make breathing more difficult. Some conditions that could prevent respirator use include heart conditions, lung disease, and psychological conditions such as claustrophobia. In the United States medical evaluation is required once, prior to initial fit testing and use, although it may need to be repeated if any adverse signs or symptoms are observed. The use of the respirator, decreases the chances of getting a virus that spreads through-out the air into your body. For

History

N95 respirators have several historical predecessors. One was a design for a cloth facemask by Lien-teh Wu, who was working for the Chinese Imperial Court in the fall of 1910 during the Manchurian plague outbreak. It was the first that protected users from bacteria in empirical testing, and inspired masks used during the 1918 flu pandemic. Another predecessor was gas masks developed during World War I, which were adapted for use by miners. They were reusable but bulky and uncomfortable due to their fiberglass filters and heavy rubber construction. Mass production of filtering facepieces was started in 1956 in the Soviet Union (the first mass-produced model was called "Lepestok"  ru meaning "little leaf" in Russian). The air was purified with nonwoven filtering material consisting of polymeric fibres carrying a strong electrostatic charge. Respirator was used in nuclear industry (as single-used PPE), and then in other branches of economy. For ~60 years, more than 6
